Proceeds From Every Can Support The Revitalization Of Our Mountains And Rivers
A nod to an old mountain blues song and the tradition of enjoying a beverage among friends, the hop-forward character of an IPA and structure of a Pale, rounded out with oats for body and complexity. Drinkin' beer, Spoaty Oaty!

The Beer Can section is a virtual homage to the American beer-can collecting craze of the 1970s. The rise of thousands of microbreweries have made 'dump scouring' or digging for old beer cans in the woods and abandoned campgrounds a thing of the past. The thousands of young men who could pick up a can in any vacant lot when the hobby was at its zenith in the 1970s have grown up - but fortunately may now find hundreds of colorful cans (full of good brew) within mere miles of their homes.

Brewer's Exegesis
This is a smooth take on the American classic pale ale. It is brewed with a heavy nose of oats, that makes for a creamy mouthfeel, balanced by a unique hop forward flavor and aroma.
