Celebrate Deschutes Brewery’s 29th Anniversary With The Release of Black Butte XXIX
Back in 1988 Gary Fish founded Deschutes Brewery and now 29 years later the ever-expanding brewery from Bend, Oregon is set to celebrate its 29th anniversary tomorrow on Tuesday, June 27th. To celebrate this milestone Deschutes will release its annual Black Butte XXIX at its pubs in both Portland and Bend prior to its complete national rollout.
Black Butte XXIX is part of its annual Reserve Series that honors the brewery’s anniversary. This beer is an imperial, barrel-aged version of our flagship Black Butte Porter that sits at 11.5% ABV and 50 IBUs. For this year’s version look for hints of cocoa, Saigon cinnamon and cayenne, aged in bourbon and rum barrels. Black Butte XXIX is available in limited quantities of 22 oz. wax dipped bottles and on draft wherever Deschutes is sold.
To get your first taste of Black Butte XXIX join Deschutes Brewery at either of its pubs on Tuesday, June 27th for its 29th Anniversary Celebration with a 1980’s themed day of Saved By The Butte that includes a flight of various years, food specials, tunes, costume contest and more.
