From Widmer Brothers:

The next two beers in our 30 Beers for 30 Years Series. 2010: Pitch Black IPA and 2011: KGB Russian Imperial Stout.

2010
PITCH BLACK IPA

ABOUT THE BEER

Along with a select few other beers from NW brewers, this beer helped write the BJCP style guidelines for "American-Style India Black Ale" or as some would rather call it, Black IPA or Cascadian Dark Ale. Bringing home a gold medal from the Great American Beer Festival in 2009, Pitch Black IPA is the perfect example of how the Pacific Northwest likes their beer…dark, bitter, with a ton of hops. 6.5% ABV

2011
KGB RUSSIAN IMPERIAL STOUT

ABOUT THE BEER

This long-time draught-only favorite was originally created by Ben Dobler to help us challenge expectations, then we unleashed it on the public in bottles in 2011. Using roasted barley, chocolate malt, and Midnight Wheat, KGB has a color that is as dark as a torrid past, a body as full as a well-kept dossier, and a taste as complex as a conspiracy theory. 9.5% ABV
