Left Hand Brewing to collaborate with Terrapin on “Midnight Project” Series
(Athens, GA/Longmont, CO) – A Georgia brewery and a Colorado brewery working together? According to Dustin Watts, VP of Marketing & Sales for Terrapin Beer Company, that is the case as the two breweries are set to collaborate on a series of one-off beers with the first one to be released at the Great American Beer Festival in October. After getting label approval earlier this week, Left Hand Terra-Rye’zd will become the first beer in the Midnight Project Series.
Watts has been working with Chris Lennert, Director of Sales & Marketing for Left Hand Brewing, in moving the project forward. Watts: “The project really started out when Chris and I were joking around late one night. Then we decided to actually do it. I think both breweries share the quality of balance in the beer we each brew. Left Hand leans on the malt side and Terrapin leans on the hop side. Combining the two seems perfect.”
The first beer is a black rye lager and will be a limited release. Watts expects that the beers will be available in both breweries’ local markets.
