These are no longer normal times…So why drink something normal especially in 2021?

Hanging With Frenz (Yakima, WA / Austin, TX) –Bale Breaker Brewing Company, a family-owned brewery located in the beautiful Yakima Valley, has announced its newest limited release series: Frenz, a line of collaborative beers with their peers in the brewing industry.

The series kicks off with an Imperial Hazy IPA made in collaboration with Austin, TX brewery Pinthouse. Brewed in true Pinthouse Style but with all Bale Breaker’s homegrown malts and hops, Bale Breaker Frenz #1: Hazy Imperial IPA is a 9% ABV India Pale Ale crafted with Bale Breaker’s homegrown Simcoe, Citra, Sabro hops.

Singles Drinking Singles (Atlanta, GA) – Monday Night Brewing has thoughtful new release crafted to help singles weather Valentine’s Day, the most overrated Hallmark holiday EVER. Available in single cans on February 15^th (Single Awareness Day) Monday Night All By Myself is a massive 10% ABV India Pale Ale… a beer you’d probably prefer to not to share.

Lemon-Limed (Grand Rapids, MI) – So, what happened when two flamingos walked into a bar? Bell’s Brewery’s latest limited release…that’s what happened. Kettle-soured with Lactobacillus (lacto for short), Bell’s Lemon-Lime Fruit Fight is a 4.8% ABV fruit-forward Gose Ale flavored with fresh lemons and limes, and deftly spiced with sea salt and coriander.

Contact High (Seattle, WA) – Elysian Brewing has a huge new year-round that as the brewery puts it is “not to be trifled with.” Intensely aromatic and cloaked in a semi-translucent haze, Elysian Full Contact is an 8.8% ABV Imperial Hazy IPA with big tangerine, cream soda and fresh honeydew notes.
