Ground Breaker Brewing Releasing Olallie Ale 2/12 & Launching Kickstarter Campaign For Canning

On February 12th we are releasing our newest beer, Olallie Ale.

Olallie is brewed with blackberries and rose hips and then finished with copious amounts of Crystal hops for a classic Northwest aroma.  At the same time Olallie has been kept light and dry with only a hint of bitterness.  Olallie Ale is 4.5% ABV and 30 IBUs.

“Many of our customers have expressed an interest in a light berry beer” explains Ground Breaker’s Head of R&D, James Neumeister. "We knew that it had to have a pronounced hop aroma if we were going to like it. Rose hips provided the bridge between the hops and the blackberries that made it all work."

On Thursday, February 12th, we will be celebrating the release of Olallie Ale by offering a berry beer flight that includes Corsa Rose Gold, New Planet Raspberry Ale, and Dogfish Head Tweason’ Ale.  Olallie Ale will be available on draft and in bottles at our pub and will be distributed to retailers once we finalize plans for offering Olallie in a 12 ounce package.

We are pleased to announce the launch of our Kickstarter campaign that will allow us to start canning our delicious gluten-free craft ales.

We plan to launch canning with our best selling beer, IPA No. 5, and our latest beer, Olallie Ale.  Olallie is making its first appearance tonight, in the Ground Breaker Gastropub.

Olallie was developed from the beginning with canning in mind. Olallie is brewed with blackberries and rose hips and then finished with copious amounts of Crystal hops for a classic Northwest aroma.  At the same time Olallie is light and dry with only a hint of bitterness.  Olallie Ale is 4.5% ABV and 30 IBUs.
