October is ON and American craft brewers are addressing the changing seasons with more exciting offerings you’re gonna want have around.
Flower Power (San Diego, CA) – AleSmith Brewing has partnered with another of our SoCal favorite, Beachwood Brewing on a new fall-friendly limited release. Brewed with a monstrous blend of Galaxy, Cashmere and Nelson hops, AleSmith Tower of Flower is a 6.8% ABV West Coast-Style India Pale Ale that’s double dry-hopped out of its mind and brimming with intense notes of passionfruit, citrus, peach and melon.
“We were stoked to team up with Beachwood again for Tower of Flower,” shares Ryan Crisp, Head Brewer and Director of Brewery Operations at AleSmith. “If anyone can forge a solid West Coast-style IPA, it’s two SoCal breweries with a shared passion for hops.”
“We couldn’t be happier with this fantastic IPA brewed with some of the finest and most aromatic hops around,” raves Co-Owner and Brewmaster of Beachwood Brewing, Julian Shrago. “Beachwood was honored to be a part of another amazing collaboration.”
Want S’more? (Milton, DE) – Dogfish Head Craft Brewery is returning a fall favorite that was inspired by the beloved campfire treat and became a runaway hit when it was introduced in 2020. Perfect for chilly nights around the campfire, Dogfish Head Damp Amp is a 6.5% ABV Milk Stout bursting rich with notes of milk chocolate, vanilla and of course, s’mores.
“As the weather cools, I couldn’t be happier to welcome Camp Amp back into my rotating lineup of fall-centric sippers,” said Sam Calagione, Dogfish Head Founder & Brewer. “I highly recommend enjoying this brew around a campfire’s crackling flame.”
Camp Amp’s artwork was designed by is Ryan Besch, an illustrator based in Buffalo, New York, who has been designing posters and vinyl art for more than 20 years, and worked with many well-known groups, including Phish, The Black Keys, O.A.R. and more.
Get Elated (Asheville, NC) – Days are getting cooler and the nights longer and High Wire Brewing is addressing things with a special cold-weather IPA. Crafted with Michigan Chinook and Idaho 7 hops for a sturdier hop-forward flavor, Hi-Wire Elated Winter IPA is a 6.1% ABV India Pale Ale that balances caramel and toasted bread notes with an aggressive hop-forward character.
