New Pie & Beer Day Friday! 7/24/26

 

Happy New Beer Pie & Beer Day Friday! It's a rare time when these two beloved events line-up in one blessed calendar day. To celebrate we here at Utah Beer Ensembles, Thespians & Toe Tappers have created a new musical to ring in this most hollowed holiday. There are some breweries that created new beers just for today, and cherry seems to be the theme. Please enjoy!

Beer Nerd Radio offers up a best of show today. What will be our mystery show? Check us out and find out at 2pm on 99.9fm KUAA. 

Epic Brewing - Pie & Beer Day (Cheery Pie Cream Ale): Subtle sweetness. It’s a cream ale for sure without the “cream”. It’s not sweet per se; malty for sure! but that subtle amount of cherry really takes it to a level that is more happy and less intense. This is a fun ale, best paired with a savory pie🫡🍺 6.8% - At Epic.

Silver Reef - Pie and Beer Day (Cherry Sour Ale): Missed this sour cherry pie ale from our friends in St. George. 5.0% - now at Silver Reef,

2 Row - Pie-Oneer Ale (Cherry Pie Sour): Tart base with a definite cherry twang. Lemon backs it up with a medium amount of lactic tartness. The 7.5% ABV is well hidden so pace yourselves. 🤘😉

Level Crossing - Microcosm Session Hazy Pale Ale: Big Peach & melon aroma. Hmmm. Lotsa hops here, light malt body with an abundance of hop flavors. It taste like they’ve packed a lot of hops in here. it dodges between varieties peach, citrus, melon, mango & flowers. Wish for more malt to make it perfect. 5.0% - Very limited amount Only at Level Crossing West Temple.

Uinta - Test Phaze (Lab Sequence 006): Kind of reminds me of a fruit salad of peach, tangerine & guava & a hint currant. The 8.0% has some 👊💥 with a whole lotta DDH hoppiness that lingers for a tiny bit. NEIPA purists likely will find it too hoppy. Perty damn tasty. At Uinta.

Bewilder - Brew - Lab (Early Aughts IPA): This Old School IPA takes U back to the days of big malt & chewy citrus/piney IPAs. There’s flavor in thar! Mostly piney nose. Big malty pop! Smoove all around with pine & citrus hops. Full mouthfeel with nice lingering hop bitterness🤤😌 6.4% - Available at Bewilder.

Zion Brewery - Flying Monkey: Missed this Strawberry and Banana Hefeweizen made with Strata hops. 5.0% - Available at Zion Brewing and at  Zion Brewery Station #2.

Cheers!

Offset - Glossier: (from Offset) Featuring Citra T90, Garston Motueka, Citra Liquid Lupulin, Nelson Subzero Hop Kief, Galaxy. This super saturated Double IPA version of our house 6.5% Citra focused IPA, Glossy. We took everything about Glossy and turned it way up. Double the hopping rate in both the kettle and dry hop with total hop load closing in on 9lbs/bbl of the choicest Citra, Galaxy, and Nelson in multiple formats. This is the first batch of beer we've used Liquid Lupulin Citra. A new concentrated hop product specifically for dry hopping that lets us add more hop flavor and aroma without adding more green, vegetal matter to the beer. We also used some Kohia Nelson Subzero Hop Kief in this which is extracted from a blend of Nelson Sauvin and dried Passionfruit. Combine this all with a third, short and cold, dry hop of some choice Early Harvest Galaxy and you've got an incredibly expressive double IPA that explodes with all sorts of Tropical and citrus character. Available today for on site and To Go 8.0% 

Cheers!
