Beer Camp Festival is coming to Seattle next month

The 2016 Beer Camp beers just hit the streets. Beer Camp Across America is a collaboration extravaganza orchestrated by Sierra Nevada Brewing that, this year, saw 31 breweries organized into regional teams that created six different brews.

As in years gone by, Sierra Nevada packaged the beers into Beer Camp 12-packs containing two each of the six beers. In limited supply, a few kegs sneak out of the brewery. Also, Sierra Nevada is hosting a series of Beer Camp festivals across the nation, including one in Seattle on June 11th.

“We created Beer Camp Across America to be a true national celebration of craft beer,” said Sierra Nevada Founder and President, Ken Grossman. “As part of that, we brought our fellow brewers and friends who share our passion, admiration and bold approach to pushing brewing boundaries along for the ride.”

The Beer

This time around, the Pacific Northwest and Rockies team included brewers from Bale Breaker Brewing, Barley Brown’s Beer, Black Raven Brewing, Melvin Brewing, and Odell Brewing. The beer they created is Moxee Moron Imperial Session IPA.

Moxee is a town near Yakima that sits in the middle of the world’s most prolific hop growing micro-region. It is also the home of Hop Growers of America, the organization representing America’s hop farmers. An oxymoron, of course, is a term that contradicts itself, like icy hot or imperial session.

Brewers from the Northwest and Rockies team.

The 2016 Beer Camp Across America collaboration 12-packs have a suggested retail price of $28.99 – $29.99.

The six beers for 2016 are:

  • Sweet Sunny South Southern Table Beer (4.9% ABV) – An easy-drinking, malt-forward beer featuring traditional Southern ingredients.
  • Pat-Rye-Ot Revolutionary Pale Ale (5.6% ABV) – A “revolutionary” Pale Ale inspired by classic colonial ingredients like rye and apple.
  • West Latitude Session Rye with Hibiscus (5.5% ABV) – A Session Rye blooming with Hawaiian Hibiscus and California hops.
  • Moxee-Moron Imperial Session IPA (7.5% ABV) – A style contradiction honoring the Pacific Northwest’s hop-bomb heritage.
  • Family Values Imperial Brown Ale (8.5% ABV) – An Imperial Brown Ale that embodies native ingredients of the Midwest.
  • Stout of the Union Robust Stout (7.3% ABV) – The ultimate combo of rich and roasty malts from our Southern California friends.
