Uinta’s Anniversary Barleywine Update

Uinta Brewing celebrates their anniversary with an American barleywine.  Keeping with the impressive new labeling, the barleywine is prime for a sprucing up.  The previous artwork had a roman numeral denoting the year/vintage (as seen below.)  This beer is now available year round, & no numerals on the new label either. NOTE: Might be on the neck.  Barleywines cellar beautifully…

First brewed in small batches annually to commemorate Uinta’s anniversary, this soul-warming brew is now available year-round. (Uinta’s anniversary is observed and noted by the change of the roman numeral on the label.) Uinta’s award winning barley wine has a dark amber hue with a rich malty character. Serious amounts of hops are used to balance its hardy alcohol content of over 10% ABV.

Style: Barleywine
Availability: 12oz bottles, year round.

10.4% ABV

Uinta Brewing Gets New Logo

Uinta Brewing has unveiled a new logo.   The brewery was founded in 1993, and now uses wind & solar power to run the brewery.  Uinta current distributes to 22 states.

April 20, 2011, Salt Lake City, UT–Uinta (you-in-tah) Brewing Company proudly unveils their new logo, a symbol that closely represents the meaning behind the name “Uinta” and exemplifies character of the company, as well.

Uinta Brewing Company, established in 1993, was named after the Uinta Mountain Range, the only major East-West running mountain range in the continental United States. To celebrate the uniqueness of its namesake, the new logo depicts a mountain range circumscribed by a compass dial highlighting the East and West coordinates.

The Compass is a tool which represents Uinta Brewing in several ways.  The Uinta family prides itself on its sense of direction and focus on brewing quality, consistent beers.  Additionally, as its beer names portray, Uinta appreciates the great outdoors that surround them in Utah and the entire Intermountain West.  The compass speaks closely to the Uinta family’s sense of adventure and exploration, inside and outside of the brewery.  This can be seen in surveying Uinta’s wide-ranging beer-styles, including its new exploratory series, the elegantly crafted Crooked Line.

The tagline, “Earth, Wind and Beer”, will remain married to Uinta’s logo, as it speaks directly to the responsible business practices with which Uinta is genuinely concerned: sustainability, commitment to renewable energy, and of course, crafting great beer.

Uinta plans to roll out this new logo gradually, primarily due to the fact that it will be updating eighteen years worth of the previous brand-identity.  Stay tuned, and keep your eyes peeled for the new look!

 

Uinta Brewing Company

Uinta Brewing Company embarked upon its mission of brewing world class, full-flavored, craft-brewed beer in the winter of 1993 Many of Uinta’s beer names are inspired by Utah’s diverse landscapes or have historical significance.  Uinta has broadened its market and can be found in 22 states from coast-to-coast, and has even ventured to other countries around the world.  Uinta is committed to brewing world-class beer using the best practices and ingredients.  Since 2001 Uinta Brewing has used 100% wind-powered energy, becoming the first Utah business to reach this mark.

Uinta Brewing Dubhe Press Release

As mentioned last week, Uinta Brewing is releasing a new beer “Dubhe” (pronounced Doo-be) brewed with hemp seeds.  Funny huh?  Here’s Uinta’s press release on this new beer

A Star Is Born:

Uinta Brewing Company’s Dubhe Imperial Black IPA

March 1, 2011 SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH– Introducing the newest addition to Uinta Brewing Company’s lineup, Dubhe (pronounced Doo-bee), an Imperial Black IPA.

Dubhe was named after Utah’s Centennial Star, a star classified as a Red Giant.  Dubhe, the star, appears orange in color, and is found at the top end of the big dipper’s spoon. The name “Dubhe” continues Uinta’s tradition of celebrating the great state of Utah, however, “Dubhe” is a fitting name for more than that reason: this beer is as black as the night sky and is brewed with an astronomical amount of hops.

Dubhe is comprised of five hop varieties, a hop profile bold enough to shine through the roasted, dark malt character of this beer. A citrusy hop aroma, achieved by dry hopping with a proprietary blend of extreme Northwest hops, balanced with notes of mild dark chocolate and a hint of sweet licorice. Smooth from start to finish, Dubhe’s layered flavor profile emerges with rich and rounded toasted malt flavors, and is followed by a lively hop bitterness. At over 5 pounds of hops per barrel, Dubhe is the most hop-laden beer Uinta has ever produced.

This shinning new addition is brewed with hemp seed (A play on the name, perhaps?), and has a far-out ABV of 9.2%.

Arrival: Mid March 2011
