Gigantic Releasing Santa Clones Winter Warmer 11/8

It's Time For Holiday Cheer!
Gigantic & Weird Portland United Toast to Holiday Magic with Santa Clones Winter Warmer

Get ready to toast to one of Portland’s favorite holiday icons in a brand-new way! Gigantic Brewing Company and Weird Portland United are thrilled to introduce the Santa Clones Winter Warmer—a rich and malty seasonal brew inspired by the city's quirkiest holiday tradition: Santa Clones!
For the uninitiated,
Santa Clones is a merry gathering of 400 vintage, 1960s blow-mold Santa figurines that magically pop up around Portland each year. And this year, they’re bringing holiday cheer to your glass. Each sip of Santa Clones Winter Warmer is a cozy blend of caramel, a hint of dark fruit, and just the right touch of warming alcohol to make your spirits bright.

You’re invited to be the first to taste it!

New Beer! “I Love the IBUs IPA”
It’s Citrusy. It’s Bitter. It’s Nostalgic AF

Hey there, Hop Heads! You know we’ve got mad love for those bitter IPAs, and when our friends at Zupan’s Market hit us up, we knew it was time to get down to business. Together, we’ve crafted a brand-new IPA that throws it back to the OG days of craft beer: I Love the IBUs IPA.

Yeah, we said it. IBUs. Remember when IPAs actually had them? When beer was meant to be bitter, the internet was slow, and frosted tips were still kinda cool? This beer’s our homage to all that.

What’s in the Can?
This beauty is loaded with NW Pale Malt, Light Crystal, and a badass mix of Cascade, Simcoe, and Amarillo hops. The result? A wave of juicy citrus up front, a hint of tropical fruit on the finish, and a BIG throwback of that classic, bracing IPA bitterness.

Drink it Like It’s 1999.
Throw on your best flannel, spin that Pearl Jam album, and crack open a can of I Love the IBUs IPA. It’s basically the soundtrack to your 90s throwback dreams – just in liquid form.

Get it exclusively at Zupan’s Market as part of their Farm-to-Market series, where they team up with local breweries (shout out to Breakside, pFriem, and Wayfinder) to bring you stuff you can’t find anywhere else.
