The dog days of summer have arrived, and so has the next release in the Experiment Ale Series from Ground Breaker Brewing. Heyday IPA will be released Wednesday, August 3rd by the country’s first 100% dedicated gluten-free craft brewery. A release party will take place at their Gastropub located at 2030 SE 7th Ave. Fried Chicken Supper is slated to be on the menu, as well as three taproom exclusive renditions of the Heyday IPA.

Heyday IPA is an American-style IPA brewed with Ella™, Denali, and Azacca® hops. “This IPA is something our customers want to drink, and it’s the kind of beer we like to drink all the time too,” says Tim Barr, brewmaster at Ground Breaker Brewing. “We brewed it with a great combination of hops and it was a special opportunity to play with their tropical characteristics. If you like IPA, you’ll love this beer.”

The taproom exclusives which will also be featured at the release party include a “keg-hopped” version of the beer with juiced ginger root, one with smoked citrus added during primary fermentation, and a single-hop variation of the beer brewed with Azacca hops. These taproom exclusives will be available only in the pub for a limited time. 

The Heyday IPA will begin hitting store shelves in Ground Breaker distributed territory the first week of August. 

Ground Breaker Brewing, the nation’s first 100% dedicated gluten-free brewery, is rolling out the first release of the year in their Roll Up Door Series. Ground Breaker’s Imperial IPA weighs in at a staggering 10% ABV and 100 IBU. A uniquely American style, this double India Pale Ale boasts enough alcohol and bitterness to satisfy even the most enthusiastic Northwest hophead. It’s a gluten-free beer best enjoyed fresh, before the hop flavor and aroma dissipates.

Ground Breaker’s Imperial IPA will be released Thursday April 27th , and will be available through the Ground Breaker Gastropub and Bring on the Beer, the Pacific Northwest's #1 online craft beer store. 

Ground Breaker will be pouring pints of IIPA during their Taproom Takeover at Cidra Cider Room in Bellingham, Washington on April 29th from 5-7pm. 22oz bottles will also be available for purchase. In addition, the Tap Takeover will feature 7th Avenue Saison and Coffee Pale Ale.

A limited release, Ground Breaker Brewing produces 7 barrels for their Roll Up Door Series of ales, so this hoppy gluten-free beer is sure to sell out quickly. The Imperial IPA first appeared as Roll Up Door Series #1 in the summer of 2015.

Gluten-free hopheads rejoice, Ground Breaker Brewing’s Imperial IPA has returned.

Ground Breaker Brewing, the first 100% dedicated gluten-free brewery in the United States, is offering up 7th Ave Saison for their late-Spring seasonal. Their saison, a pale ale brewed in the refreshing farmhouse style originating from the French-speaking Wallonia region of Belgium, is an easy to drink gluten-free beer that lets the distinctive yeast and noble Fuggle hops speak for themselves. 

At 4.7% alcohol by volume and 20 IBU, this cooling seasonal ale is a perfect fit for all manner of springtime activities. “Every year while brewing, as the first signs of Spring are making their appearance, we ask ourselves what we want to drink and this year it was a saison” said James Neumeister, head of R&D at Ground Breaker Brewing.

7th Ave Saison will be released Wednesday, April 27. Ground Breaker Gastropub will feature a paired menu for their Wednesday Supper. Ground Breaker is also featuring three Taproom Exclusives. 7th Ave Tarragon Saison, 7th Ave Lemon Saison, and 7th Ave Kumquat Saison. These Taproom Exclusives will only be available in the Ground Breaker Gastropub for a limited time.

The cold and rain have once again returned to the Pacific Northwest, and so has St. Denny Dubbel. Ground Breaker Brewing’s winter seasonal named in honor of homebrewing great Denny Conn is back for its third year.

St. Denny is brewed with roasted chestnuts, roasted lentils and dark Belgian candi syrup. It is lightly hopped with Oregon-grown Sterling hops, and fermented with a blend of two gluten-free Belgian yeast strains. It comes in at 6.5% ABV and 25 IBU. With a brilliant copper brown color, medium-full body, moderate strength, subtle bitterness, and slightly sweet finish, this dubbel style ale is sure to satisfy.

St. Denny Dubbel Style Ale bottles will be released at The Ground Breaker Brewing Gastropub on Wednesday, November 18th. In addition to the standard St. Denny, the pub will be pouring a specialty version with cranberries.
