We talked about this beer today on the WILK Friday BeerBuzz with Bobby Clark…and now you have the new label for Weyerbacher Last Chance IPA. last Chance is the replacement for Weyerbacher’s original Hops Infusion…a result of Chris Wilson ‘s Project IPA search for the replacement and I’m proud to be the first to bring it to you. Last Chance will be a 5.9% IPA packaged in 12oz bottles. As an extra special bonus…a portion of the Last Chance IPA proceeds will benefit Animal Rescue….thus the reference to “last chance.” Cheers to Chris, Dan, Bobby & everyone @ Weyerbacher for a great new beer AND a beer that not only tastes great…but a beer that makes a difference.
Full details from Weyerbacher:
(Easton, PA) – Weyerbacher Brewing Company releases the newest addition to their year round arsenal of craft beers. Last Chance IPA is a full-flavored hop assault delightfully lacking in balance. A combination of Centennial, Cascade, Simcoe, and Columbus hops are used to produce pungent aromas of grapefruit, pine and citrus.
With the impending retirement of Hops Infusion, Weyerbacher wanted to create an IPA that could stand in its place. We began the IPA project across the tri-state area last summer. Our mission was to find the IPA that our fans would enjoy the most. Batch #3743, Marcia, North, Steel, Crimson and Diamond were all unleashed on the public separately over a 6 month period. After reading over a thousand responses to our questionnaire, our new IPA was chosen.
Not only are the people of Weyerbacher passionate about making the highest quality craft beer, they’re also a bunch of guys and gals with big hearts. That’s why a portion of the proceeds from each bottle or pint of Last Chance sold will be donated to an animal rescue. Employees of Weyerbacher will select an animal rescue close to their hearts for each month.
Last Chance will be available in draft starting June 1, with bottles following in July.
