Alesong Brewing & Blending to Celebrate its 9th Anniversary on June 28th
It’s been nine years since Alesong Brewing & Blending began its operations in Eugene, Oregon. To celebrate this milestone, Alesong will host is 9th Anniversary on Saturday, June 28, 2025 from 1:00pm – 8:00pm at its countryside brewery. The daylong event will feature ive music from lInner Limits, complimentary ice cream sandwiches from Alden’s Organics, a special anniversary cookout menu from Alesong’s on-site kitchen featuring smash burgers and Olympia Provisions sausages, and of course, the release of Alesong’s annual Canniversary Collaboration IPA.
Over the course of the past nine years, Alesong Brewing & Blending have received many accolades on the world’s stage for its barrel-aged beers. Since its inception, the brewery has been awarded a medal for at least one of its beers at every Great American Beer Festival competition. And most recently. the brewery was awarded Brewery of the Year at the 2024 Great American Beer Festival in its size category!
As a tongue in cheek nod to the common practice of IPA-centric breweries releasing once-a-year barrel-aged anniversary beers, Alesong releases a highly anticipated collaboration IPA in cans every year for its anniversary. This year Alesong worked with fellow Oregonians and 2024 Great American Beer Festival Breweries of the Year (in their respective size classes), Sunriver Brewing and Grand Fir Brewing to create a beer celebrating both Alesong’s and Sunriver’s anniversaries.
9th Canniversary Collaboration IPA is described as a modern West Coast IPA using all the trendy hops and newest in hop extracts that Alesong doesn’t normally get to play with, including versions of Mosaic, Crush, Strata, and Columbus. The end result is a drinkable IPA at just over 6% ABV, featuring a balance of tropical, citrus, and punchy resinous notes. Alesong will have commemorative anniversary coozies to accompany every four-pack purchased at its anniversary celebration!
In addition to the anniversary celebrations, this IPA highlights the collaborative nature of the beer industry, showcases Oregon’s award-winning brewers, and acknowledges that although Alesong focuses on barrel-aged beers, they still have plenty of love for the Pacific Northwest’s favorite beer style!
“With all the craziness in the beer industry and the rest of the world right now, we’re so thankful for the amazing local community that shows up to support and celebrate life’s magical moments with us,” stated Doug Coombs, one of Alesong’s three co-founders. “Plus, we’re ready to party and enjoy Summer in Oregon!”
The 9th Canniversary Collaboration IPA will be available for on-site consumption and in four packs to-go beginning on Saturday, June 28th at Alesong Brewing & Blending. It’ll also be available at Sunriver Brewing Co. locations in Sunriver, Eugene, and Redmond.
Alesong Brewing & Blending is open Thursday through Sunday from 1:00 – 8:00pm with a full food menu. For additional information, visit www.alesongbrewing.com.
