11/11/2017 -- Sottile Red Release and Sonoma Fire Benefit

The 3rd annual Sottile Red release on November 11 to thank Sonoma firefighters.

Sonoma Springs Brewing Company plans its annual Sottile Red release party on November 11 to mark the anniversary of the three-alarm blaze that torched the back of its home on Riverside Drive. The event takes place from 1pm to 6pm in the Sonoma Springs parking lot and taproom. The event is free to attend with proceeds going to benefit Sonoma Volunteer Firefighters Association, in memory of local firefighter Lino Sottile.

This event, from its inception in September 2015, has raised funds for the Sonoma Firefighters Association. It commemorates the response led by the Sonoma Fire Department to put out a major fire in our building back in November 2014, which imperiled the completion of our current brewing facility. This years’ event will provide the community with an opportunity to thank all our local firefighter and first responder heroes who will undoubtedly appreciate such praise after the events of the past few weeks.

Sottile Red, a super-limited release created in collaboration with the Sonoma Volunteer Firefighters Association, is a double red ale brewed with Simcoe and Citra hops for a unique citrus flavored finish. Sonoma Springs will be releasing the beer at a release party Saturday, November 11 in their parking lot and taproom with food and live music. Acoustic Beatles cover band Rubber Soul will play music. Entry is free. Beer, brats and merchandise will be for sale at the event.
