This week, we released our West Coast Pils: a true farm-to-farm collaboration with the Carpenter family, who have been growing hops in Washington's Yakima Valley for 6 generations. Austin Carpenter himself even flew out to help us brew this one and catch the final night of Riggs-Fest!

The concept of a West Coast Pils is simple: take the crushability of a classic pilsner and hop it with modern American hop varieties. Expect an aroma that takes you straight back to school lunch fruit salad, backed by a delightful hint of hop resin. We kept the bitterness moderate so the b**r stays balanced, clean, and completely crushable... because it's a Pils.

Enjoy the fruits of our labor!

So, it turns out that our recent distribution expansion into Chicagoland has caught the attention of some b**r drinkers up there. If you live near Chicagoland, come hang out with us at an event this weekend. We'll have 6 b**rs on tap (including the Red L***r that this guy likes so much) at the Vernon Hills Whole Foods Market from 5-7pm on Friday. We'll be pouring Hefeweizen and Helles at the Lombard Brew Fest on Saturday.

Another throwback moment: Kegging out b**r 10 years ago and kegging out today! This view hasn't changed too much. Neither has the b**r: our first batch ever kegged was Riggs Hefeweizen!!!

Our 2026 crop of "b**r corn" got treated to a pass from the rotary hoe today. Because on our farm, we literally grow b**r.
