Come to Mama!

Mama’s Little Yella Pils - Our new canned good is an assertive, small-batch   
version of the beer that made Pilsen, Czechoslovakia famous. Mama’s hearty amounts of pale malt, German specialty malts, and traditional (Saaz) and 21st century Bavarian hops make it a perfect antidote to the watered-down, cornfed versions of pilsner clogging America’s shelves. While it’s rich with Czeched-out flavor, Mama’s gentle hopping (about 35 IBUs) and low ABV (just 5.3%) yields a delicious but low-dose session beer.  Our first canned lager is fermented at cool temperatures with a German yeast & finally prescribes a Pils that meets our standards.  Look for our Gold Metal Winner on US shelves in March. Sadly, the Feds rejected our “Take Two and Call Us in the Morning” line on the can.

Oskar Blues Adds Beer Ace, Tanks 

We've made a couple big moves to keep up the supply and quality of our Oskar Blues beers. We've just added Jeff Nickel to our team, he's a brewer heavy who left his position at MolsonCoors to craft full-flavored brews with us.
 
He's one of a very few brewers who have left the Very Big Leagues to make hay in the small-batch craft beer world, we're thrilled to have him join our team. He brings gallons of expertise, knowledge and great reputation to our team, he'll oversee production for us.
 
We've also added five 100-barrel fermenters to our Longmont facility to boost our capacity by over 50%. These will go a long way in helping us meet demand for our beers in the 22 states that now enjoy our luscious canned and kegged goods. With these tanks we're on pace to boost our annual beer production by about 75%, to over 20,000 barrels in 2008. Yahoo!

The Audacity of HOPS

We printed up some special posters for our events during the Democratic National Convention, they were, uh, inspired by Barrack Obama's iconic HOPE poster.

These almost-as-iconic HOPS posters were a hit during DNC week and have gained some eager supporters of their own.

Want one for your wall? Hit THIS LINK and grab a print-ready file and print away.

Or order the printed version in pairs (a minimum of two) at our Gear section and we'll send 'em to you for $7.00 per pair.
