We teamed up with our buddies from Indiana-based Sun King Brewery  for a CANlaboration project to unite the brewer’s friendship and passion for pushing the boundaries of craft beer in a can.   Brewers from Oskar Blues and Sun King made the trek to each others breweries for months, and are excited to bring you CHAKA, a limited-release Belgian-style ale — the first craft beer to be packaged in the Alumi-Tek^® re-sealable pint bottle from Ball Corporation. CHAKA will be released May 3^rd 2012 at the Craft Brewers Conference in San Diego in each attendee’s hotel room and at special events throughout the weekend (see below!).   The following week the brewers will make limited quantities available at the Oskar Blues Tasty Weasel Taproom and in Sun King’s home market.

The connection between these two breweries is deeper than the fact that they both can their beer. Our head brewer, Dave Chichura, began his professional brewing career in Indianapolis fifteen years ago where he became friends with Dave Colt and Clay Robinson, the two brewers who created Sun King. The three friends have been talking for years about working together on a collaborative beer, so when the opportunity came to assist in the introduction of a new packaging option for craft beer, it was an easy fuh-CAN-yea!

The end result is an 8 percent A.B.V. Belgian-style ale crafted with a blend of ingredients from each brewery’s home state: Shagbark Hickory syrup from Hickoryworks in Trafalgar, Ind.; grain from Colorado Malting Company; and a special yeast blend from Brewing Science Institute, also in Colorado. Brewers from both breweries worked together to formulate the recipe and traveled between Colorado and Indiana to brew at both locations.

Clay from Sun King weighed in on the brew: “Until we undertook this project, only large breweries and beverage companies had access to this type of packaging. Sun King and Oskar Blues worked closely with the Ball Corporation and Cask Brewing Systems to design and build a simple, functional small scale system that will allow craft brewers to take advantage of this unique packaging option.”

And our marketing dude, Chad Melis, threw in his 2-cents: “Unique packaging like the Alumi-Tek bottle provides both Oskar Blues and Sun King the differentiation we need to make our limited-release beers and B.Stiff & Sons Old Fashioned Root Beer (Oskar Blues Brewery) distinct from our core lines. Craft beer in aluminum bottles is another step forward in the evolution of craft beer.”

Available for purchase at the Tasty Weasel Taproom, for $17.50 a 4-pack.  You can also get your hands on CHAKA and meet the brewers from both breweries at a few events taking place during this weeks Craft Brewers Conference in San Diego:

Where: Oskar Blues Grill & Brew in Lyons, Colorado

When: Saturday, April 28th

We’re throwin’ back to 1997 and celebrating 15 years of soul food, live music and great brews at Oskar Blues Grill & Brew in Lyons, ColoRADo.

Our funky little brewpub was born 15 years ago when Dale and his wife stumbled across Lyons, Colorado on a road trip.  That trip began many Colorado-born inspirations and experiences that have shaped what Oskar Blues is today.

On April 28^th, the 15 year celebration at the Lyons, Co brewpub will include two live bands – Interstate Stash Express & The Informants, a pig roast/crawfish buffet, specialty brews, and a full day of family activities including a live petting zoo, housemade Rootbeer, commemorative t-shirts, Oskar Blues race car appearance, photo booth and a local artist gallery from 1pm to 5pm.

The day will also serve as the official launch of a few new libations:  The 15^th Anniversary Abbey Ale in new 16oz cans along with the official CAN launch of B. Stiff and Sons Old Fashioned Rootbeer.  Oskar Blues is canning the same Rootbeer that has been served in their restaurants over the past few years named in tribute to Brian Stiff, a Lyons local and father of two who unexpectedly passed away on February 11th.

A note on Brian Stiff from Dale: “Brian was one of our bike riding buddies. He lived up in Lyons, and it’s just an awful, awful story…” Stiff died unexpectedly in February.  Since then, “Our friends in Lyons have been looking for ways to help his widow and two young children and canning the root beer, with a portion of the proceeds going to the family, is our way to do that.”

So, come on down and join us in Lyons on Saturday, April 28th for a FULL DAY of festivities, and let’s PARTY LIKE IT’S 1997!

- round trip airfare for 2 to ColoRADo

- stylin’ transportation in the Dale’s Pale Ale RV

- 2 nights of hotel accommodations

- a slew of Kelty Basecamp gear, complete with a Kelty Hula Shadehouse, two Lowdown Chairs, Folding Cooler, LumaCamp lantern, and Soft-Top Table (RAD!)

- full access to the “Oskar Blues Ordeal,” a combination of everything OB including a brewery tour, dinner & beers, and a big ol’ load of OB swag

- PLUS a VIP Red Rocks concert experience including a live show and backstage passes & a Kelty/Oskar Blues parking lot tailgate

Kelty and Oskar Blues, two very outdoor-minded businesses, share a passion for good times under the great big blue.  The Red Rocks Basecamp Giveaway is a way for us to come together and share the ride with our people, the fans who support us.

The Red Rocks Basecamp Giveaway kicked off in early April and runs through the end of July. On August 1, 2012, five finalists will be determined by random drawing from all eligible entries.  To win the Big Kahuna, the five finalists will be asked to answer a few questions and write a blurb about why they dig the combo of craft beer in a can, music, and the great outdoors. Oskar Blues and Kelty will put their heads together (likely over a few beers…) and pick the entrant with the most entertaining and compelling response.

Some of you may be weary of this so called “blurb”, but what we’re really trying to get at is sharing this SWEET extravaganza of Colorado, craft beer, music, and the outdoors with someone that digs this stuff as much as we do.

For more information on how to enter & giveaway details visit www.Kelty.com/DalesPaleAle.

Rocky Mountain Motorsports (RMM)), a Super Late Model Stock Car team based in Brighton, Colorado will be competing at Colorado National Speedway (CNS), located in Erie, CO, five times this coming season in the NASCAR Whelen American Series Super Late Model Division. Whether you’re a die-hard NASCAR fan, or a newbie to the scene, come check it out with us! Our team is racing May 27, June 30, August 11, September 2, and September 29 – plus, we’re opening up the season with a special run this weekend, 4/21.

We’ll be doing beer samplings at the race track on select dates, and Mama’s Little Yella Pils CANS will be available there all season long. In addition, the Dale’s Pale Ale 2-seater ride along car will be displayed at the track on our car’s race days. Wanna ride? Fans will be able to experience the high speed thrill of turning some laps in a real NASCAR vehicle with an accomplished driver!

And on June 30th, Oskar Blues is hostin’ an all out, OB-style ho-down at the race track. We’ll have the Bonewagon Food Truck, beer samplings, a special VIP area, and the Oskar Blues Fireworks Show.

The races at CNS are only the beginning of the racing season’s festivities, as the team and car will make several appearances along the Colorado Front Range as well. We have several “meet and greets” set up locally with the driver & team, and of course, the car! We’ve already made a stop at Tipsy’s Liquor World a few weeks ago!

Some other race car appearances:

4/28 – March for Babies in support of March of Dimes Foundation in Greeley
5/4 – Twin Peak Liquor in Longmont
5/25 – Twin Peaks Restaurant in Colorado Mills
6/9 -Brewgrass South Pearl Music Festival in Denver
7/20 – Morrison Liquor in Morrison

Check  out the calendar on the Rocky Mountain Motorsports Facebook page for more information on these events.

Rocky Mountain Motorsports is owned by Kevin & Melissa Steinke who live in Morrison, Colorado. Kevin and Melissa have been fortunate enough to have the services of Cris Muhler to drive their race car. Cris has been driving stock cars for over 20 years and has raced almost every type of car that competes at CNS, winning in all of them.

A few month’s back, we got to thinkin’ of some things we’ve never done, and partnering up with a race team was one of them. So we thought, why not! That’s our style – pushing boundaries while tying local communities together. Local racing, local beer, local people. A match made in our race car heaven! CAN ya dig it?
