Name That Brew

As you probably know, it’s beer week in Arizona and we have a bunch of fun beer stuff going on all over the state.

Some of the participants in all of the craziness are the beer drinkers at Dave’s Electric Brewpub. Dave’s has a new brew coming out soon and it is brewed right here in Tempe. This is a classic IPA and is a similar recipe to the current Industrial Pale Ale they sell but with a higher alcohol content and higher hop content. Even though it isn’t completely ready for production, I got to try some recently with my friend, Mr. IPA, Jack Smith. Both Jack and I approve and look forward to when they begin serving it in the next few weeks.

There is just one problem… They haven’t named the new brew yet! That’s where you come in. Dave’s is having a “name that beer” contest. It’s easy to win, just pick the best name! See the video for details or check out the information below.

Big thanks to my friend, Christina Cenzano for giving us a sneak peak ( and taste ) of the new IPA coming to Dave’s!
