Some beers are more refreshing than others. You know, like light lager beers as opposed to barrel-aged stouts. Redhook just launched one that’s ideal for the five o’clock exhale.
Introducing Redhook ’81, a light lager that pays homage to the year the brewery started. It’s a crisp-as-fall beer in a cool retro can and just 4.2% ABV. The beer looks very much like something you find by the bucket at your favorite dive bar.
Redhook started back in 1981, born in a renovated transmission garage in Seattle. The brand would go on to help shape the craft beer movement, inspiring the growth of other west coast breweries and labels all over the land. Its flagship beer is the ESB, or Extra Special Bitter.
The beer is available at various retailers throughout the region in both four-packs and twelve-packs. It’s a lower-octane beer won’t have you feeling fuzzy. We fancy it as a fine game day beer now that we’re in prime tailgating season.
Get your coolers and fridges ready. Fall is upon us, but an approachable and light beer knows no season. Sip it on its own after some yard work or pair it up with some nachos.
We’ll keep you posted on more new releases as they bubble to the surface. And in between, we’ll be posting more food and drink pieces spotlighting some of our favorite insights, recipes, tips, and more. With fall’s bounty comes one of the best stretches of the year for all things on your plate and in your glass.
