Maui Brewing Co (Lahaina, Maui, HI) has just announced a new collaboration brew with Jolly Pumpkin Artisan Ales (Dexter, MI). Sobrehumano Palena ‘ole will be the brewery’s first collaboration in a can. The name is a blended Spanish-Hawaiian term for “superhuman.”
What’s the beer?
Sobrehumano Palena ‘ole is a red ale brewed with liliko’i (passionfruit) and cherries. Each brewery will add its own unique spin – as Maui will ferment normally (arriving in cans), and Jolly Pumpkin will make it a barrel aged sour (in bottles).
Where?
Maui will produce 4,000 cases & 80 barrels, distributed in all 11 states in which the brewery currently ships. Ed. Note: Jolly Pumpkin most likely will not know yield until barrel blending time.
How Did These Two Find Each Other?
“John and Garrett were planning their collaborations for 2012 and because John is from Michigan and coming home for the holidays my name came up. This whole idea came together really fast — just weeks before John’s visit. It’s been a very challenging blend to develop — I’m super-excited about it and a little intimidated at the same time. I’ve been enchanted by Hawaii for years and it’s been great to work with everyone at MBC and get to know them. I always enjoy collaborations but this one is something really special.”
Style: Red Ale (Maui) / Ambiguous Style (Jolly Pumpkin) (w/ Cherries, Passionfruit)

The next beer is the 5025 which is a full bodied and tart brew started with our Quad recipe aged in red wine barrels for 17 months. Over the course of that time frame, the beer picked up slight hints of oak, a subtle sweetness, and red wine characteristics. Truly a one of a kind beer, and a first for Stoudts!
Style: Sour Quadrupel (Wine Barrel Aged)
Availability: 25.85 oz bottles
Arrival: TBA
In addition to 5025, Stouts is releasing Amber 25.
Amber 25. This light bodied, refreshing brew uses a small amount of caramel malt to give it a nice amber color with a hint of sweetness. Lower hopping rates and a smooth dry finish make this the perfect session beer to help you celebrate 25 years of Stoudt’s beers!
