Bristol Brewing’s 25th Anniversary Birthday Boxes

February 28, 2019September 25, 2019 Mike

One of my favorite Breweries, Bristol Brewing Company, is celebrating their 25th Anniversary this year. What is this cool brewery doing for their anniversary? Well, something cool of course.

4 Magical Birthday Boxes!

Bristol is going to be releasing 4 Birthday Boxes (12 packs), one a month, which will include one of their flagship beers, and 3 variants of that beer. The first box kicks off with a release party tomorrow night, and I would be willing to bet there will be a release party for each of the birthday boxes.

Personally, I’m going to try and make sure I get at least one of each Birthday Box.

March – Laughing Lab Birthday Box

This Scottish Ale that has been Bristol’s Flagship beer since the start, and it gets the first box. Along with the original, Nine time Great American Beer Festival Medal winner, Laughing Lab, you’ll also be treated to:

Chocolate Lab
Scotch Ale
Barrel Aged Lab

May – Beehive Honey Wheat

It may not have won any medals (yet), but it’s won quite a few Colorado Springs reader’s polls, and if you haven’t tried it, then you need to correct that oversight post haste. This delicious American Wheat has been a longtime favorite in the Bristol Flagship lineup. They describe it as “Sunshine in a glass”, and I can’t argue. It’s another of my favorites.

Along with the original, this Birthday Box will also include:

Hefeweizen
Wit
Simcoe Hefeweizen

August – Compass IPA

A classic IPA, with Chinook, Cascade, and Columbus hops, this flagship is joined in it’s birthday box by:

Single Hop IPA
White IPA
IPA Twenty Five

October – Winter Warlock Oatmeal Stout

This Winter Seasonal is the “dark and satisfying elixir”. Another local favorite, and winner of the Silver medal at the 1998 Great American Beer Festival, along with many Colorado Springs Reader’s polls. This tasty stout’s Birthday Box will also include:
