Redhook Brewery brought back its popular Blueline Series of beers in June 2011 with a special release of Redhook Dunkelweizen. Local consumers and media were excited to see the Redhook brewers stretch their creativity and welcomed the Blueline Series and the beer into their fridges. If you missed this first release, don’t panic, you should be able to find other releases in the series on shelves and at your local pub throughout the year.
Extra Special Birthday Beer
Redhook is celebrating its big three oh – and what better way to celebrate then with an extra special beer. Redhook’s second release in the Blueline series is a highly modified version of ESB that replicates the flavor profile of Redhook Ale in the early 80’s, lovingly referred to by Seattle locals as “banana beer”. To bring out this unique flavor we fermented using a yeast strain that highlights these spicy banana notes. This special brew has a deep red color, bold hops and thick malty body. Don’t worry; no actual bananas were harmed in the making of this beer.
