LONGMONT, CO. Jan. 12, 2026- Left Hand Brewing Company, one of the original pioneers in craft brewing and Nitro innovation, has released its 2026 beer lineup. This year’s offerings include two new Nitro seasonals, a new year-round pilsner and couple of throwbacks that are sure to excite the long-term Lefties and entice new fans.

Beginning Q1 Left Hand will introduce its first new Nitro seasonal, Chocolate Orange Nitro. This super smooth Milk Stout variant features nostalgic flavors of chocolate-covered oranges. Inspired by the iconic cookie, Q4 will kick off with Ginger Snap Nitro a winter warmer featuring comforting ginger spice and everything nice.

Left Hand enthusiasts will have plenty to celebrate in Q2 with the return of Good JuJu, a pale ale brewed with fresh ginger that’s juiced by hand in the brewhouse, and Flamingo Dreams Nitro, a berry blonde ale that pours pink.
“These two are the most highly requested beers that we receive in our Tasting Room and across all platforms,” said Left Hand CEO and Founder Eric Wallace. “Bringing them back is our way of saying thank you to the fans who’ve kept these beers top of mind, and we can’t wait for everyone to enjoy them again.”

Fans can look forward to the same great flavor of 1265 Pilsner, now rebranded as Left Hand Pilsner and available in 12-packs. “We wanted the packaging to reflect the classic beer it is,” said Left Hand Communications Specialist Taylor StClair. “The refreshed design features bold new visuals and subtle nods to the St. Vrain River that runs behind the brewery – the source of high-quality, Rocky Mountain water we use to brew every batch.”

Colorful Colorado IPA also has been elevated to a year-round offering in 2026. Originally released as spring seasonal, Colorful Colorado quickly climbed to the top of the brewery’s Tasting Room and off premise sales.
“We are known for our stouts, but every batch of Colorful Colorado that we brewed was claimed before it was canned,” said Wallace. “This IPA is unique due to the addition of hop terpenes, and vibrant hop bill that truly showcases the innovation of Colorado craft brewing.”
