These are no longer normal times…So why drink something normal especially in 2021?
Feeling Your Oats (Milton, DE) – Dogfish Head Craft Brewery has a new oat-centric IPA that is brewed with four types of oats, including the addittion of oat milk. Under development for almost a year, the brewery’s newest release was born of two unexpectedly complementary trends, explosive growth of hazy IPAs and plant-based milks.
Dogfish Hazy-O is a full-bodied 7.1% ABV Hazy IPA that is brewed with truckloads of oats and wheat and liberally dry-hopped to deliver big juicy tropical notes of citrus, mango and pineapple.
But Hazy-O’s real secret is its oats, each adding a different aspect to the beer’s character…
- Malted oats contribute a dreamy cloudiness.
- Rolled oats create a silky mouthfeel.
- Naked oats add a nice toasted and nutty flavor.
- Oat milk provides an amplified haze and mouthfeel
“Oat milk is really having a zeitgeist moment, especially in the active lifestyle community” said Dogfish Head founder Sam Calagione. “At Dogfish, we are proponents of leading active lifestyles that include both exercise and indulgence, and we are committed to crafting beers that fit that worldview.”
A Wheat-Fueled Wonder (Grand Rapid, MI) – Founders Brewing has announced the first line extension in its history, All Day IPA, its hugely successful session IPA. Enormously approachable yet nuanced, Founders All Day Vacay is a 4.6% ABV Session Wheat Ale with a summertime sweetness, complemented by delicate notes of citrus.
Kickback And Relax (San Diego, CA) – AleSmith Brewing has a new addition to its year-round portfolio that might be just what the doctor ordered to unwind in 2021. Crisp and crushable, AleSmith Kickbackrelax is a 4.2% ABV light-bodied India Pale Ale with juicy notes of grapefruit, mango and coconut and only 120 calories.
