NEWPORT, OR, April 1st 2014 — Rogue Ales and Spirits salutes the American Armed Forces with the release of American Amber Ale in 16oz grenade cans, coming to shelves June 1st, 2014.

This beer is about America, not about a beer style – and at Rogue we build relationships, not just ales. For years we’ve taken an active role in supporting the men and women of our Armed Forces, and American Amber Ale has been our Patriotic Rogue since we first opened our doors 25 years ago. Of course, having a great beer style doesn’t hurt. Since its creation, American Amber has won 6 gold medals at the World Beer Championships.

Rogue Brewmaster John Maier pays tribute to America’s Amber Waves of Grain by brewing American Amber with hops and barley from Rogue Farms in Independence and Tygh Valley, OR . Using Rogue grown ingredients gives American Amber a unique taste of place that can only be grown in the USA
