Eddyline Brewery and Lone Tree Brewing Go Beyond Treeline To Produce New Canned IPA
Beyond Treeline is a bold, experimental Double IPA made with a lot of passion for the Colorado beer community.
COLORADO— Eddyline Brewery and Lone Tree Brewing are proud to premier their new Beyond Treeline IPA, born out of the relationship between the two brewery sales teams.
Eddyline and Lone Tree have long shared a distribution house, Western Distributing, and high-fived at events all over the Front Range and the Arkansas Valley of Colorado. The 2022 Colorado Brewers Guild Collaboration Festival gave them a reason to make a beer together— and to go beyond the horizon. Beyond Treeline is a bold, experimental Double IPA made with a lot of passion for the Colorado beer community.
Hopped with Mandarina Bavaria, and two experimental hops from Hop Breeding Company– Talus™ and the fresh hybrid HBC 586— Beyond Treeline is quenching, with fruit-forward hop aroma, low bitterness, and a soft mouthfeel. Huge peach and stone fruit on the nose meet tropical flavors like guava, pineapple, and coconut in this innovative IPA, all balanced out by subtle oak and herbal notes on the finish. Its beautiful orange, slightly hazy hue is reminiscent of sunset casting on treeline.
Beyond Treeline will debut in cans across Colorado in April with artwork that features Lone Tree’s signature tree design and Eddyline’s hop-bearded can character, who’s sporting backpack stickers for each brewery and a special heart for Colorado craft beer legend Andy Jessen.
Find Beyond Treeline in 16 oz. 6-packs wherever you buy Eddyline and Lone Tree beers in Colorado, and on tap at Eddyline’s tasting rooms in Buena Vista, and Lone Tree Brewing Co. while supplies last.

Collaboration Beers Abound at Living The Dream Brewing Company
It’s unofficial collaboration brew season at Living The Dream Brewing Company, who are partnering with several Colorado breweries on beers to be served at Collaboration Fest, and to support the Pink Boots Society.
LITTLETON, CO– It’s unofficial collaboration brew season at Living The Dream Brewing Company, who are partnering with several Colorado breweries to create specialty beers that span styles and concepts; to be served at Collaboration Fest, and to support the Pink Boots Society.
Fresh off a tapping of the Treat Yo Self Stout made with Lady Justice Brewing for Stout Month, Living The Dream brewers collaborated on three beers that are now available while supplies last. Meet them here.
Pink Boots Society
A celebration of the Pink Boots Society International Women’s Collaboration Brew Day, A Kühl Of Their Own is an experimental Lager that was brewed at 105 West Brewing in Castle Rock. It’s inspired by all things fun in the sun, baseball, peaches, Big League Chew®, and cold beer. The name is a clever combination of a classic women’s baseball movie reference, and the German word Kühl, meaning cool, cold, or chilly. This beer will be available at Living the Dream, Platt Park Brewing Co., and 105 West Brewing Co.
Monumental Beer Works
For Collaboration Fest 2022, Living the Dream wanted to partner with Western Slope breweries who they often visit when they’re out playing in Colorado’s wilderness. First up, they called previous Living The Dream team member Brian Fischer of Monumental Beer Works and the two breweries created Hurricane Hazy IPA. It’s inspired by a Hurricane cocktail, infused with flavors of passionfruit, orange, lime, and cherry.
“It’s very fulfilling seeing Monumental succeed and grow,” said Jason Bell, Founder of Living the Dream.
Ska Brewing
In another Collaboration Fest 2022 partnership, Living the Dream teamed up with Ska Brewing to brew Living The Ska Dream Double IPA. The focus in this brew was hop additions, and lots of them. Brewers used nine unique hops and multiple hopping techniques. “We wanted a big base to build on but didn’t want to get into the ‘Triple IPA’ range,” says Living The Dream Head Brewer Rob Meehan. “We’ve got bittering, aroma, whirlpool, dip hop, and dry hop additions to show how each variety can add something unique based on type of addition.”
Living the Dream is excited to work with Colorado beer icon Ska to create something truly unique that can be enjoyed across the state.
Try all of these storied beers, and more, in the Living The Dream tasting room and at the collaborating locations while supplies last. Contact Emily Hutto at hutto@radcraftbeer.com with media inquiries about any of the above.

Crystal Springs Brewing Co., Great Divide Brewing Co., and Lone Tree Brewing Co. Collaborate on Colorado Sweep Wheat Ale
Colorado Breweries Collaborate on American Fruit Beer after sweeping 2021 GABF Category.

DENVER, CO— Last year three prized Colorado craft breweries made headlines when they swept the competitive American Fruit Beer category at the 2021 Great American Beer Festival®. Their collaboration brew Colorado Sweep, an American Wheat Ale, is now available at each brewery’s tasting room.
The hardware that the Crystal Springs Blood Orange Kölsch (gold), Great Divide Wild Raspberry Ale (silver), and Lone Tree Peach Pale Ale (bronze) took home last year was the perfect impetus for these Front Range breweries to join forces for a collaboration beer to celebrate and serve at the annual Colorado Brewers Guild Collaboration Fest.
“This idea came about immediately after the GABF awards were announced in September 2021,” says Matt Sandy, Great Divide’s Marketing Manager. The winners were Crystal Springs Blood Orange Kölsch (gold), Great Divide Wild Raspberry Ale (silver), and Lone Tree Peach Pale Ale (bronze). “Because Colorado swept the American Fruited Ale category, we thought it would be fun to collaborate with the other breweries and keyed in on Collaboration Fest as being the perfect arena to celebrate this group effort. Not only has the fest become one of the country’s premier showcases for unique collaborations, it also fell around the same time we were planning on releasing our winning beer, Wild Raspberry Ale, in 6-packs.”
Crystal Springs, Great Divide, and Lone Tree gathered last month to craft an American Wheat Ale with both white and flaked Wheat, and Hallertau Magnum, Saaz, Cascade, and Lemondrop hops to create complexity of body, and refreshing, citrus and fruit-forward flavors. The breweries then added blood orange, raspberry, and peach to represent the fruits in all three of the award winners.
“The combination of fruits contributed by each brewery should create a fun and refreshing beer that we are all excited to share with the public at Collaboration Fest,” says Lone Tree Sales & Marketing Director Dennis Stack.
Festival-goers at Collaboration Fest should be on the lookout for this inspired fruit beer before it’s gone. Catch Colorado Sweep on tap at each brewery’s respective locations while supplies last.

Lone Tree Brewing Co. and Peak View Brewing Co. Tap Lemon Squeeze Collaboration Saison
Lemon Squeeze Collaboration Saison by Lone Tree Brewing Co. and Peak View Brewing Co. will be available on March 10.
LONE TREE, CO— Lone Tree Brewing Co. has teamed up with Peak View Brewing Co. to brew a Belgian-Style Meringue Saison with a poppy seed twist. Lemon Squeeze Collaboration Saison will be available on March 10.
In January, the production staff from both breweries met up for beers to develop a recipe that fused Peak View's creative use of exotic ingredients with Lone Tree's more traditional, but experimental brewing philosophy.
Lemon Squeeze Collaboration Saison was brewed with lactose, vanilla, Meyer Lemon puree, and a touch of poppy seed cake filling for a tinge of earthy sweetness. This one-of-a-kind farmhouse ale has aroma that wafts vanilla, lemon, and light pepper, with noticeable lemon bitterness coupled with citrus notes to taste. It weighs in at 6.8% ABV.
“We borrowed pasty beer inspiration from Peak View Brewing Co.,” says Chris Gilmore, Lead Brewer of Lone Tree Brewing Co. “The poppy seed is very subtle in flavor and adds a nice contrast to the lemon puree."
The Lemon Squeeze Collaboration Saison will be tapped in both the Lone Tree Brewing and Peak View Brewing Co. tasting rooms on draft only on Wednesday March 10 while supplies last.

ABOUT CANCERBLOWS
In 2013 43-year-old Dallas Symphony Orchestra trumpeter Ryan Anthony was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma, a terminal bone marrow cancer that typically appears in patients aged 70 and older. Ryan’s musical community rallied around him and when they offered support, he jokingly replied that “we’ll all play a concert when I am healthy again and we’ll call it 'Cancer Blows'”. Ryan is now in remission, and the joke morphed into The Ryan Anthony Foundation, who in 2015 put on CancerBlows, a once-in-a-lifetime musical event bringing together the most famous trumpet players in the world. The event raised more than $1 million with all of the net proceeds donated to the Baylor Health Care Research Foundation and Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation that work toward a cure for cancer.

Karl Strauss Supports Pink Boots Society with Two Collaboration Brew Days and Beer Release
Karl Strauss continues their commitment to the nonprofit organization with a beer release in celebration of women, diversity, and the local beer community.
SAN DIEGO, CA— Karl Strauss Brewing Company has long been a proud supporter of Pink Boots Society through participation in yearly collaboration brews, funding of scholarships & donations, and active involvement in local PBS chapters. Fresh off hosting the San Diego Pink Boots monthly chapter meeting at their Tasting Room earlier this year, Karl Strauss continues their commitment to the nonprofit organization with a beer release from – not one but two – brew days in celebration of women, diversity, and the local beer community.
On Thursday March 7th at their Anaheim brewpub, the Karl Strauss crew rolled up their sleeves for a brew day led by Brewer Jarrod Davis. The following day on International Women’s Day, more KARL team members brewed at their La Jolla brewpub led by Brewer Melissa Sanchez.
“Pink Boots Collaboration Brew Day gives everyone the opportunity to have a hand in all parts of the brewing process, from conception to completion. I think it gives everyone not only an appreciation for the finished product, but also a sense of pride and accomplishment.” – Brewer Melissa Sanchez, Karl Strauss Brewing Company
More than twenty Karl Strauss team members joined for the brew days. This year’s beer recipe was created by Davis and Sanchez, who wanted to highlight 2019’s Pink Boots Hop Blend from Yakima Chief Hops. Bitter In Pink is a San Diego-style ESB, an Extra Special Bitter that’s then hopped to the max (as well as dry-hopped) to emphasize that Pink Boots blend of Loral, Glacier, Mosaic, Sabro, and Simcoe hops. The name was chosen by Karl Strauss brew day participants.
Bitter In Pink San Diego-style ESB will be pouring at Karl Strauss’ Tasting Room & Beer Garden, Brewpubs, and at select craft beer accounts throughout California beginning Monday, April 1st. Karl Strauss will make a donation to Pink Boots Society in support of their mission: To assist, inspire, and encourage women beer professionals through education.

Thirsty Monk and Baere Brewing Collaborate on Grisette Project
The first beer of a Grisette collaboration between Thirsty Monk and Baere Brewing Co. will release at Thirsty Monk’s Denver brewery this week.

DENVER, CO — The first beer of a Grisette collaboration between Thirsty Monk and Baere Brewing Co. will release at Thirsty Monk’s Denver brewery this week.
Earlier in May, Thirsty Monk and Baere Brewing created a Grisette using early spring chit malt with Landrace hops and Dandelions picked fresh from the grassy areas around Thirsty Monk’s Uptown neighborhood before adding them to the kettle. Two weeks later the Thirsty Monk and Baere teams brewed the same recipe on Baere’s brewhouse on South Broadway and blended it with a few barrels of the original batch. This beer will age in fourth-use Cognac barrels that have also held Laws Whiskey until it tastes tart and delicious. Thirsty Monk will tap its fresh and dry hopped version of this beer this week.
“A grisette, in essence, is like a saison— at least the saisons that we and Thirsty Monk enjoy drinking: low alcohol, dry finishing,” says Kevin Greer, Co-Owner at Baere.
“At Thirsty Monk we put a spotlight on how great food and beer can pair together and even have a gold medal-winning Table Beer to show for it,” says Head Brewer Brian Grace. “I wanted to expand on the sessionable and refreshing beer styles we offer that pair well with food and I have always been a fan of Baere’s ability to pull off such big flavor in a small format. I am excited to be able to offer two very different versions of Grisette, one young, fresh and hop forward and one aged in oak for a tart, refreshing and complex beer making two different food pairings.”
Grisette is a beer style originally brewed in Belgium’s Hainaut province— traditionally with spring chit barley malt and malted wheat and a prominent hop profile. It’s a sessionable style that pairs well with just about anything at the table.
The Cognac barrels, where Baere Monk is currently aging, first housed this beer during its fermentation. It will be available in bottles at Baere in coming months.
