DelaWeAre beer collab releases to begin in November

DelaWeAre, a statewide collaboration to help grow the Delaware craft brewing industry, is returning this fall, and breweries from across the Small Wonder state will be releasing their version of DelaWeAre beer during the first week of November.

As the seasons change and temperatures drop, craft beer aficionados can swap out those crisp pilsners and light lagers for something a little more bold.

Stout season will be in full swing at this time, so brewers will be working up a rendition of this style, and beer drinkers might assume something dark, roasty and heavy. However, stout is a pretty broad category, so fans can expect to see a variety of ABVs, IBUs and even SRMs across Delaware.

“With the cooler weather that time of year, stout makes perfect sense,” said Jimmy Vennard, Delaware Brewers Guild president and founder of Autumn Arch Beer Project. “We look forward to our statewide collab every year; I’m excited to see what the guild members come up with this time around.”

Participating breweries include Bellefonte Brewing, Big Oyster Brewery, Crooked Hammock Brewery, Dew Point Brewing, Dewey Beer Co., Dogfish Head, First State Brewing Co., Iron Hill Brewery, JAKL Beer Works, Lewes Brewing Company, Stewart’s Brewing Co., Twisted Irons Brewery, Volunteer Brewing and Wilmington Beer Works.
