Tröegs Brewery Announces New Year-Round Beer (PR)

Tröegs Perpetual Imperial Pale Ale will be available in all Troegs Markets by mid-June

HERSHEY, PA — Chris and John Trogner, owners of Troegs Brewery, announced today they are adding a new beer to their current year-round line-up. Perpetual Imperial Pale Ale (IPA) will be released starting in late May and will be available throughout their eight-state distribution network by the middle of June.

Perpetual IPA will be available in 12 ounce bottles and half-kegs.

“With the opening of the new brewery and increased production capabilities we’ve wanted to start adding beer to our line-up since opening in October 2011,” said Chris Trogner. “In early March we finally caught up with customer demand and we are excited to finally add a new year-round beer to our roster.”

“In our constant evolution as a brewery, we’ve developed on undying drive to meld the organic and the mechanical,” said John Trogner. “Perpetual IPA is a tribute to building our new brewery and our desire to continue exploring beer.”

Perpetual IPA utilizes our hopback and dry-hopping to engineer a bold Imperial Pale Ale. Perpetual IPA is 7.5% ABV and 85 IBUs. It features Bravo, Chinook and Mt. Hood hops in the boil, Mt. Hood and Nugget hops in the hopback and Citra, Cascade and Nugget hops during the dry-hop stage.

Perpetual IPA was released in 22 ounce bottles and limited half kegs. It sold out almost immediately.

Tröegs Scratch #63 Honors Fallen Friend

Today, Tröegs Brewery  (Hershey, PA) honors a friend that past away in January.  Danny’s IPA is brewed for brewery employee Danny Glover.  Interestingly, the beer is modeled after one of the brewery’s most popular beers – Nugget Nectar.  $10 of every case of Danny’s IPA sold at the brewery goes to the Gift Of Life donation program.

Scratch #63-2012 was brewed to honor Danny Glover, our good friend who passed away earlier this year. Dubbed Danny’s IPA, this Black IPA is modeled after Danny’s favorite beer, Nugget Nectar. It clocks in at 7.0% ABV and 100 IBUs. Per John Trogner III, “If anyone says it’s not hoppy enough, punch them in the face.”

Rotten grapefruit flavors from Columbus hops dominate Scratch #63. The dry-hopping rate is nearly one pound per barrel creating a dank, piney aroma that gives way to a grassy finish. This beer was dry hopped at a rate of 1.25 lbs. per barrel, more than two times the rate of Nugget Nectar.

Style: Imperial IPA
Hops: BOIL — Bravo, Columbus, Nugget, Palisade, Apollo HOPBACK — Bravo, Columbus DRY HOP — Palisade, Apollo, Zythos, Columbus, Summit
Malt: Pils, Munich, Crystal, Midnight Wheat

Availability: 12 oz bottles. Draft (Tap room)
