Flying Dog Announces 2015 Brewhouse Rarities; All To Be Released in 6-Packs
Press Release
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Tuesday, August 26, 2014
Frederick, MD – To decide on the lineup for Flying Dog’s 2015 Brewhouse Rarities, Brewmaster Matt Brophy and his brewing team had to narrow down 45 beer concepts to just eight.
And there was just a little pressure from fellow coworkers.
Each summer, the entire brewery congregates atop a historic overlook in the Catoctin Mountain Range and teams of staff – from production to accounting to sales and marketing – pitch ideas for the next year’s Brewhouse Rarities.
“It’s an open forum for anyone in the company,” Brophy said. “Creativity, innovation, and passion for our craft runs throughout all areas of our brewery and this series is our way of harnessing our collective talent.”
Once the next year’s releases are determined, each team is responsible for everything involved in that beer’s release – from sourcing ingredients to planning launch events outside of the brewery – which exposes them to all aspects of the craft beer industry.
Now in its forth year, 2015 is the first time that all of the beers will be available on draft and in 6-packs.
“While the program continues to be exclusive and small-batch, the two types of packages increases the ways people can get their hands on these beers,” Brophy said.
The 2015 releases include:
- Mexican Hot Chocolate Stout
- Earl Grey Black Wheat
- Sriracha Pale Ale
- Maibock
- Juniper White IPA
- India Pale Lager
- Spiced Pear Ale
- Smoked Belgian Stout
