I’m not sure if you should be more excited about trying this new collaboration 3-Way IPA from Fort George Brewery, Lompoc Brewing and Gigantic Brewing, or for the fact that there will be tricycle races at this release event. Join them to watch the madness this Saturday starting at 4pm at The Pine Box.

A press release is below, and here is a video about the beer*.

Seattle – they’ve saved the best for last.  The 3-Way IPA Seattle Release Party is this Saturday, July 20th at The Pine Box.  Samples of the new Fort George summer seasonal collabortaion with Lompoc and Gigantic will be available, plus a three-way tap takeover featuring several beers from all three breweries.  And….tricycles!  Race to win prizes.

The 3-Way IPA is the latest seasonal release from Fort George Brewery.  This collaboration with Lompoc and Gigantic is available in 16 oz cans and on draft for a limited time.  Organic two-row (they couldn’t get 3-row) malted barley creates a solid, crisp profile and a straw-colored hue.  A balance of aromatic hops treats your senses to a symphony of fragrances and flavors.   Add a hardworking California Common yeast and some of Astoria’s slow sand-filtered water, and the 3-Way IPA becomes the perfect summertime beverage.   ABV 6.69% – IBU’s?  Doesn’t matter.  Read the description.  Better yet, taste for yourself.

Great things come in threes.  Grains, hops and yeast.  Seattle, The Pine Box and tricycles.  Beer, beer and beer.  Fort George Brewery brings them together to fulfill every beer drinker’s fantasy – the 3-Way IPA.  Party starts at 4:00 pm – tricycle races on the patio 4:30 pm.
