Drake's Brewing Company

After months of test batches and experimental releases, Drake’s Brewing Co. is excited to announce the special release of Brightside Extra Brut IPA in six-packs. Drake’s has played a pioneering role in the development of the new Brut IPA style since it emerged at the beginning of 2018 in San Francisco.

Summer at the beach. Grilling poolside with friends and family. A relaxing end to a long hike. Now enjoy all these moments with Kick Back IPA, exclusively in 12 oz. cans, or on draft, year-round from Drake’s Brewing Co. This marks the brewery’s first beer packaged in cans, just in time for the warmer spring and summer months ahead.

Available now through the end of February 2018, Drake’s Brewing Co. is offering a different take on an IPA for your winter enjoyment with the release of its seasonal brew, Dark Wing.

After its 2016 debut, War Pigeon is back again by popular demand as a limited release double IPA, available now through the end of November. War Pigeon is dry and bright and brewed with a variety of ultra-fresh hops from Styrian Cardinal, Mosaic, Chinook, and Pekko. At 8% ABV, it’s an aromatic blast of sweet pineapple and citrus zest, with hints of floral aromatics.

This week Drake’s Brewing Co. is releasing its refreshed and ramped-up Aroma Coma recipe. Drake’s has upped the ante and created a bigger, hoppier, and more punched up version of the perennial favorite IPA. The brewery has added more Citra hops and more of the sticky rye malt and light caramel flavors that provide the backbone for the over-the-top dank hoppiness. The ABV has also been bumped up to 8.0% to give the beer amazing balance. Aroma Coma 2XIPA delivers an aromatic punch of citrus hops that lives up to its name.

After a huge kick off in 2016, Drake’s Brewing Co. is again releasing Kick Back, a golden, hoppy Session IPA. A portion of the proceeds will support East Bay Regional Parks through Drake’s community fundraising program. Last year, Drake’s exceeded its goal and raised over $10,000 to support trail cleanup and restoration at the East Bay parks and the brewery has its sights set on beating that goal in 2017.

In an effort to keep up with rapidly growing demand over the past few years, and to stay at the forefront of innovation, the Drake’s Brewing has tripled its production space including a new brewhouse, fermentation cellar and packaging warehouse. Not only will Drake’s be able to increase production of the brewery’s pioneering hoppy beers, but use the additional capacity to focus on growing its specialty, limited and barrel-aged brews.
