Watch out for that Dump Truck!

The arrival of Dump Truck season couldn't be timed better, accompanied by the nice, spring-like weather we are having this weekend in the Northwest. It makes many of us eager for longer, sunnier days and warmer temperatures. These types of outdoor conditions are often accompanied by activities such as fishing, rafting, kayaking, camping, biking and all sorts of great adventures. For many of us, a day of outdoor fun ends with a barbecue meal with friends. No matter how you choose to enjoy the coming season, Bayern Brewing is pleased to announce that you will soon be able to add a light, flavorful, refreshing Dump Truck to your outdoor fun. How soon? Read on...

We've been brewing the first of many batches of Dump Truck Extra Pale Summer Bock the last two weeks, and Bayern is ready to roll it out next week. The photos included with this post show a Kombitank holding 112 U.S. Barrels of Dump Truck and also the bags of Sauermalt (acidulated, malted barley) and Spitzmalt (raw, organic barley) that we use as part of the unique recipe Bayern's Owner and Master Brewer, Jürgen Knöller, created three years ago. You can read more about why Dump Truck is so unique (and so delicious) while checking out the new Bayern Brewing web site: www.bayernbrewery.com

Bayern will be shipping to our distributors around the Northwest this week. They'll get it out into the market for you to enjoy at your favorite establishment, or pick up a 6-pack in stores very soon. There are some who simply can't wait though...we know how you feel. Everyone at Bayern is really excited for Summer! So we are having a Dump Truck Summer Sneak Peak on Monday. You can get some prerelease Dump Truck at our Tasting Room in Missoula and, if you show up in your summer gear (think river sandals, zinc oxide on your nose, Hawaiian shirt, PFD, etc.) you may win a prize! Prost!
