First low-calorie, low-carb offering from award-winning coastal brewery centers on popular IPA style, available throughout the Pacific Northwest PACIFIC CITY, Ore. (Oct. 15, 2026) — Pelican Brewing Company is wading into the light beer category by tackling a high-stakes beer style in the Pacific Northwest: IPA. The new Pelican Lite IPA, a full-flavored, low-carb and low-calorie brew for beer lovers, is crafted specially for the region’s active lifestyle. With three grams of carbs and 122 calories in one 12-ounce serving, this is a feel-good IPA that doesn’t sacrifice flavor. Featuring notes of crisp citrus and pine, with a clean, dry finish and vibrant hop character, Pelican Lite IPA is flavorful without being filling. With just a fraction of the carbs and roughly half the calories of traditional IPAs, Pelican Lite IPA could be expected to be light on taste and drinkability. However, the brew’s ABV of 5.4%, an anomaly in the light beer category, gives the beverage its body and allows it to stand up well on its own or paired with a meal. As Pelican celebrates 30 years in business, this new release proves the brewery’s passion for craft innovation continues to define the brand and shows no signs of slowing down. IPAs have consistently been a favorite style among the Pacific Northwest’s discerning craft brew drinkers, and formulating a recipe for a light version that would live up to PNW expectations could have a been a daunting process for some. Pelican, however, embraced the journey and experimented with several variations until finding the right recipe. “We set out to craft a light beer that would hit all the marks of a traditional IPA, from the first sip to the last,” said Darron Welch, Pelican’s Founding Brewmaster. “Cutting carbs and calories didn’t mean we had to scale back on the flavor experience, and as a result, beer lovers now have a wider choice in how to cap off their latest Pacific Northwest adventure.” Pelican Lite IPA is brewed and packaged in Pelican’s Tillamook production brewery and is available in six-packs, 12-ounce cans, 50-liter kegs and 1/6 barrels at all Pelican Brewing locations and select retailers throughout Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Northern California. The new low-cal, low-carb IPA is already hitting store shelves. Find a local retailer by visiting pelicanbrewing.com/beer-finder/. Light versions of other Pelican favorites will join the lineup in 2027. About Pelican Brewing Company Born at the beach in 1996, Pelican Brewing Company is celebrating 30 years as Oregon’s only beachfront brewpub and one of the state’s most-decorated breweries (450+ awards). Playful but not frivolous, Pelican brews with purpose, passion and deep respect for the craft. The brewery operates coastal restaurants in Pacific City, Cannon Beach, Siletz Bay, Rockaway and Yachats; a production facility and taproom in Tillamook. Pelican beers can be found at Pelican locations and in stores across Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Northern California. Learn more on the Pelican Brewing website or Instagram.

Squeeze Those Cans For Breast Cancer Awareness Month
Drink pink this October! SLO Brew’s Blood Orange Cali-Squeeze dons pink packaging to support the Beer for Boobs campaign, which raises funds for breast cancer research and recovery.

September 16, 2020 (San Luis Obispo, CA.) – Join the rally for breast cancer awareness this October by drinking pink with California’s signature craft Hefeweizen beer. SLO Brew, Central California’s longest-standing craft brewery, is teaming up with the nonprofit Beer for Boobs to raise support for breast cancer research and recovery organizations with its uber-popular Blood Orange Cali-Squeeze now popping into coolers nationwide. 

Since launching Cali-Squeeze in 2017, SLO Brew has been linking hands with Beer for Boobs to promote breast cancer awareness and financially support fellow nonprofit organizations like Susan G. Komen’s three-day, 60-mile walk for a cure in San Diego, alongside the American Cancer Society, Ronald McDonald House & Some of My Best Friends Are Bald.

“We have family, friends and fans of SLO Brew that have been affected by breast cancer,” said co-owner Hamish Marshall. “We are proud to continue and partner with Beer for Boobs to help raise awareness for this great cause.”
Hopes are running high to double last year’s contribution of $5,000 as craft beer outlets and major retailers across the country stock their fridges with the juiced up Hefeweizen known for its signature deep-pink color.
Look for Blood Orange Cali-Squeeze this October in 12oz and 16oz cans dressed with pink packaging from head-to-toe in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Additionally, California natives can have Cali-Squeeze, alongside all SLO Brew award-winning craft beers, delivered direct to their door at
CaliSqueezeBeer.com.

Why Juice Up a Perfectly Delicious Hefeweizen?
The SLO Brew crew set off on a mission to can sunshine by brewing the ultimate infused wheat beer for an endless summer. Most so-called “fruit beers” (and hard seltzers) are made with extracts and phony flavorings, but Cali-Squeeze breaks from the mold by layering real fruit puree on a soft Hefeweizen base. Its natural, vibrant color and bursts of refreshing flavor will surprise and delight non-beer drinkers and hop heads alike.

Pack the cooler for the beach, lake or pool and ease into California time with a juicy brew to bring summer home.

Beer for Boobs also gives annually to the American Cancer Society, Ronald McDonald House, & Some of My Best Friends are Bald.

All in all- we want to save the boobies!
