New Beer Friday 5/15/26

Due to the popularity of New Beer Friday the team here at Utah Beer Gizmos, Doohickeys and Thingamajigs have decided that it's time build a new data-center to handle the extra load. We trust that our Ai overloads will be pleased and we humbly ask them to remember our efforts in the coming robot uprising.  

Beer Nerd Radio Welcomes in RoHa Brewing Project 2.0. Yup the new owners and head brewer are in the radio pub today. Co-owner Shawn Smith and Head Brewer Mathew "Valuepack" Veylupek will walk us through their history and what's coming next at the RoHa Brewing Project. Beer Nerd Radio fires up at 2pm on 99.9fm KUAA. KUAAfm.org/ 

Fisher - All The Haze That Matters: Such a great hop profile, those Dolcita hops really add some nice stonefruit to the Citra/Mosaic mix. Some strawberry & tangerine round it out. Earthy/tropical finish. Very much enjoying this. 5.0% - Available at Fisher.

These are some holdovers from last week's Great Beer Mashup. There may be more of the collaborations floating around, but these are the beers I know are still available.

Bewilder / Beer Nerd Radio / Solstice Malt / Roy Hops Farms - Jimmy Wheat: We made this collab with Solstice Malt, Roy Hop Farms, Beer Nerd Radio and of course Bewilder. This 100% wheat IPA features 2 types of ancient wheat, Amarillo hops  and a touch of rose hips. Big pineapple from the hops, creamy and bready. The rose is faint, but pops as it warms. A tasty damn White IPA! 5.0% - only at Bewilder.

Fisher / Hopkins -  Olivetti's Best: This Italian Pils has a wonderful herbal hop flavor. Some lemon & grass - but not lemongrass. Sweet/toasty crackers for the base. This quite damn delish! I wouldn’t mind it if this stuck around for a while. 👊💥🤤 Much praise to the Hopkins team on this collaboration. 🍻5.0% - Available at Fisher and Hopkins

Ogden Beer / Melvin - Rainforest CafeteriaThis West Coast Pils features Mosaic, Krush and Deep Cut Cascade hops. The Mosaic / Krush create a “soft tropical smoothie,” profile while the Deep Cut Cascade snaps it back with classic Cascade hop profile. It's a really smart blend if you want something that feels new-school but still crisp. 6.0% - Available at Ogden Beer

TF / Ogden Beer - NDA: This New Zealand Pils definitely has a shload of NZ hops. Melon and diesel aroma. These carry on to the palate. Earthy and chewy hops start with some herbal bite. The melon comes around with some soft strawberry and mango. Well hopped/chewy finish 5.0% - Available at TF and Ogden Beer

Offset / Slackwater - El Provo: This Mexican Lager the collaborators decided to do a cereal mash with some corn grits for this beer. This is a very simple beer but they wanted to give it a little more flavor than your standard industrialized version. A small late addition of some Crystal hops give it the faintest hint of lime as well. 5.0% - Available at all Slackwater locations.

Offset / Level Crossing - Wet and Damp: For Cold & Damp: For this collab the team used a brand new variety that doesn't have a name or number and only 70lbs of it even exist. It was then dry hopped with Cryo Fresh Frozen Mosaic & Krush as well as some Nelson Fresh Pressed Hop Juice from NZ. The end result is a crisp and somewhat clear 5% IPA that exudes fresh hop character. There's a nice blend of dank, herbaceous aromas and bright tropical and citrus notes. Available at Offset now. This should be on draft at Level Crossing's West Temple location this afternoon. Call before you make the trip, to be sure.

There are more collaboration beers out there, these are just some that I came across during my "research". 

Cheers!

Saltfire - Jamie's Huckleberry: Huckleberries courtesy Jamie Aslett. Nice berry profile. Not crazy sweet with berries, just subtle enough to get the point across. Malt is subtle and complimentary, not overly sweet as well. Super crushable. 5.0% - Only at Saltfire.

Level Crossing - Blood Orange Half-Wit: Blood Orange Half-Wit has fresh blood orange and grapefruit aromas with hints of sweet orange and black peppercorn. It has a silky mouthfeel coming from the wheat with flavors of fresh orange, lemon and floral Belgian yeast.

New Beer Friday 5/1/26

Some say there are less adventures centered around beer than there were, in years past. I say, "NAY Fool"! Tour de Brewtah, the Wasatch Front's premier bike and brewery tour is happening this Saturday 5/2. Get your tickets and pick your route here at https://events.humanitix.com/2026-tour-de-brewtah/ And while you're touring, maybe you'll try some of these great New Beer Friday suds. Win, win as far as I'm concerned. 

Beer Fest season in Utah is already underway and the beeriest fest by Utah Brewers FOR Utah's beer lovers is nearly upon us. The Great Beer Mashup hits on May 9th and we have a preview of the collaborations... errr Mashups! that you can expect along with all the other info you'll need to make it a brilliant Saturday. listen in at 2pm on 99.9fm KUAA.  

Chappell - F*#K Human Trafficking: This beer is a collaboration with International Protection Alliance (IPA). This IPA for IPA benefits their mission which is focused on child protection in the digital sphere, empowering enforcement agencies with the capabilities to identify and apprehend online predators, safeguarding children and communities. $1 from every can sold goes to IPA.

What do you get in the can? It’s like a West Coast IPA meets Fruity Pebbles. It features CTZ, Cascade-Spectrum Oil & HBC-638. It’s all WCIPA up front. Then the Fruity Pebbles part kicks in. Berries, pineapple and citrus rule. The hops saturate, but don’t go terpene crazy (no terps here). Excellent! 8.0% - Available now at Chappell.

Kiitos - Helles: Nice Helles. It’s true to form & style. Excellent malt profile - cracker-y & lightly malty. Hops are Nobel & herbal spicy. Doesn’t taste really hoppy, but moments after the swig, hops linger a bit. Really tasty stuff. 5.0% - Available at both Kiitos locations.  

RoHa - Kolsch: This beer features Idaho Pink hops. This is a relatively new hop that's very berry forward with a good blast of citrus. Toasty malts with some light estery yeast. THIS is a great “New World Kolsch”. Love what they did with ale. Seek this one out, lemme know what you think. 5.0% - Available now at RoHa.

Salt Lake Brewing/Squatters - Perk Up, Blondie!: This new coffee cream ale features 2 row, oats and honey malt with coffee from Millcreek coffee roasters and is offered on nitro. Great roasty coffee nose. Oh my, this is heavenly. This coffee roast rules this beer. It’s not overbearing or in your face, it’s a badass medium roast that’s not acrid, with no acidity. The malts play off of it perfectly. As close to creamy bliss you’ll find. 5.0% - Available at SL Brewing/Squatters.

Cheers!
