Full Sail Clinton’s Wertzbier joins Brewer’s Share series
Full Sail Clinton’s Wertzbier joins Brewer’s Share series:
Press Release:
(Hood River, OR) – To celebrate Oregon Craft Beer Month, Full Sail Brewing will release a new beer in their Brewer’s Share Experimental line up: Clinton’s Wertzbier brewed by Brewer Clinton Wertzbaugher.
Wertzbier is a Rauchbier which is a traditional German beer style using smoked barley malt. In fact, rauch means smoke in German. Used modestly in this recipe, the smoked malt imparts a delicate smoky character to Wertzbier. Munich malt complements with a pleasant sweetness. At 5.6% ABV and 17.5 IBU, this lager has a light body with a spicy hop nose from Czech Saaz hops, and finishes clean and crisp with a hint of smoke.
“I made this beer to celebrate the good times of summer. Two of my favorite things about the season are campfires and barbeques with friends. Since I can’t always be around a glowing fire with buddies, I wanted to brew a Rauchbier to remind me of these good times. In just a sip, the smokiness transforms my bar stool into a camp chair. As a summer beer, it is brewed lighter in alcohol and less smoky than a traditional Rauchbier. I used my favorite hops, Saaz and Crystal, and balanced it with Smoked, Munich and pale 2 Row malts. It makes for a unique and easy-going summer companion,” said Wertzbaugher.
Full Sail has scheduled two “Meet the Brewer and the Beer” events to showcase this new beer. The first Meet Brewer and the Beer event will be at Full Sail at Riverplace in Portland, Tuesday, July 10th from 5:00 – 6:30PM. The second is at the Full Sail Tasting Room and Pub in Hood River, on Thursday, July 12th from 5:00 to 6:30PM. Join the Full Sail crew to celebrate and toast a pint of the new brew.
With each Brewer’s Share series beer, Full Sail picks a local charity to receive a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the beer. Clinton has chosen to support the Oregon Chapter of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society and every keg of Clinton’s Wertzbier benefits this organization. The National MS Society funds more MS research, provides more services to individuals with MS, offers more professional education and furthers more advocacy efforts than any other MS organization in the world.
The Brewer’s Share series is a line-up of small batch draft beers where each Full Sailor takes a turn hand-crafting their own single batch recipe and a portion of the proceeds benefit a local charity of their choosing. Full Sail’s Brewer’s Share Experimental beers will only be available on tap at Full Sail’s Tasting Room and Pub in Hood River, Oregon, and at Full Sail’s Brewery at Riverplace, in Portland, Oregon. Growlers to go are available. The next Brewer’s Share Experimental will be brewed by Brewer Gavin Lord and is expected in late September.
In recognition of the positive impact that Oregon craft brewers have made to our communities, the entire month of July has been designated by the Governor as Oregon Craft Beer Month. “It is an honor to brew a beer for Oregon Craft Beer Month with one of my own recipes,” added Wertzbaugher.

6th annual Puckerfest Event's and Beer List Revealed
6th annual Puckerfest Event's and Beer List Revealed:
Breaking news on this 4th of July. Belmont Station has revealed the schedule and details of the 6th Annual Puckerfest taking place Friday July 13 – Thursday July 20 noon – 11PM Daily. From humble beginnings Puckerfest has become the preeminent sour beer fest in Oregon with up to 16 sour and wild yeast beers on tap daily. I remember working at the bier cafe during the first annual Puckerfest and seeing less people than on what a regular day of business there would be like today. At that point sour beers were practically unheard of and Belmont Station had only 4 taps to rotate through them. Anyway without further ado here is the event and beer list...
