Upside Dawn GoldenJeremy
Monday
Upside Dawn Golden - Coming down from San Diego Craft beer week it seemed like a good idea to take a break from beer. But, I didn't want to take a break from beer so I invited the crew from Athletic Brewing to showcase what they've been working on in Beer-amar! With 5 days of non-alcoholic beers to get into, John, Chris and Chris started in easy with their Golden called Upside Dawn.

Tuesday
Side Stage Hoppy Pale - Music and collabs are in the very blood of Athletic Brewing, so it was an easy partnership for Athletic and The Warped Tour to collab on a Hoppy Pale Ale called Side Stage. Bright citrus flavors with a hint of citrus and tropical hop flavors all balanced with a clean finish will have you asking your self, "are you sure this is a NA beer?"

Ready Front IPAJeremy
Wednesday
Ready Front IPA - I've always said drinking beer for a good cause is the best reason to drink beer. Well Athletic Brewing takes that a step further, so I can drink beer for a good cause and have it be a little better for me because its non-alcoholic! Every year Athletic partners with Yakima Chief Hops and a armed services organization to create a beer that gives back to our military heroes. The beer is called Ready Front IPA and this years beer is second to none!
