Today I have a new collaboration can coming from Guinness Open Gate Brewery in Chicago, Illinois & Baltimore, Maryland. This is Raíces Unidas, and it will be a Chicha-style ale brewed with purple corn and pineapple, brewed in collaboration with Conectados to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month. The beer will roll in at 5.3%-AbV, and it will be packaged in 16-oz cans. Stay tuned here for release details.

Label Text Guinness Open Gate Raíces Unidas:

“Alongside our friends at Conectados and in celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month, we brewed a purple corn and pineapple Chica-style beer. The label highlights the significance of woven textiles – a symbol of unity and creativity in Hispanic culture that inspired the weaving together of flavors in this beer.”

About Guinness Open Gate:

Although Arthur Guinness started brewing beer in Dublin, Ireland in 1759, brewing in other countries has long been a part of our story. We opened our first brewery outside of Ireland in London way back in 1936, and currently brew in nearly 50 countries around the world. While Ireland will always be our home, the beer industry here in the States is arguably the most dynamic and exciting in the world right now, and, put simply, we love being a part of it. This is our opportunity to show that we are more than just a single beer – we’re a brewery, capable of producing some of the most unique, innovative, and high-quality beer in the world. Our story is more than 260 years long – welcome to the newest chapter.

The Guinness Open Gate Brewery (or OGB for short) is the innovative and experimental arm of one of the world’s most beloved breweries. The original location was opened to the public in 2015, on the Dublin site that had been home to Guinness’s Product Research Unit, which was founded in 1904. In 2018, the first U.S. location was launched in Baltimore, MD, becoming the first stateside Guinness brewery in more than 60 years. The OGB focuses on creating new and innovative beers, serving unique and global cuisine alongside those beers, and highlighting the spirit of community, inclusivity, and hospitality that are the hallmarks of the Guinness brand.
