Sierra Nevada’s Torpedo Pilsner with Firestone Walker

Sierra Nevada’s Beer Camp is doing something completely new with their Beer Camp Series. Coming this summer, Sierra Nevada will release an epic Beer Camp Across America Mix Pack featuring collaborations with breweries across the U.S.

Sierra Nevada teamed up with Firestone Walker  to create Torpedo Pilsner, a hoppy pilsner.

Torpedo Pilsner is a hop-forward take on the crisp, classic lager. We and the folks at Firestone Walker share a passion for New Zealand hop varietals, so we loaded our legendary Hop Torpedo with the southern hemisphere’s finest hops for a fruity, floral twist on the pilsner style. We brew in Chico, CA, and Mills River, NC, to bring you the finest quality beer.

Torpedo Pilsner is one of twelve offerings coming this July in Sierra Nevada’s Beer Camp Across America Mixed Pack.

Style: Pilsner
Hops: Motueka, Southern Cross,Pacifica
Malts: Pilsner, Acidulated
Yeast: Lager

Sierra Nevada’s Yonder Bock with Cigar City

Sierra Nevada’s Beer Camp is stepping up their Beer Camp Series. Coming this summer, Sierra Nevada will release an epic Beer Camp Across America Mix Pack featuring collaborations with breweries across America.

Sierra Nevada Yonder Bock is a can collaboration with Cigar City Brewing.

Brewed in collaboration with Cigar City Brewing in Tampa, FL, Yonder Bock is a Latin-inspired twist on a traditional Maibock. Cigar City finds inspiration in the Cuban roots of their hometown, which is a long way from our hometown, which is a long way from our home base in Chico, but our friends down yonder in Florida sure can brew a great beer. Yonder Bock blends a silky malt body with bright, fruity hop aromas of guava, mango and passion fruit from the use of Calypso, Azacca, and experimental 366 hops as a nod to Cigar City’s tropical locale.  

Yonder Bock is one of twelve offerings coming this July in Sierra Nevada’s Beer Camp Across America Mixed Pack.

Style: Maibock
Hops: Magnum, Azacca, Calypso, Experimental varieties
Malts: Vienna, Munich, Pilsner, Honey
Yeast: Lager

Availability: 12oz Can, Draft. Beer Camp 12-pack

Arrival: July, 2014

Some of the best creations make it into a Beer Camp Mix Pack.  Coming this summer, Sierra Nevada takes it up a new notch with twelve Beer Camp collaborations with breweries across America.

Sierra Nevada Electric Ray is a collaboration with Ballast Point Brewing, combining the flavor of an IPA with that of blonde lager.

As ever, San Diego’s Ballast Point looked to the sea for inspiration .
