Celebrate the Outdoors with 10 Barrel Brewing’s Hazy Trail + Nature Calls
With National Trails Day taking place today, Saturday, June 5th, one way to celebrate is with two outdoor themed IPAs from 10 Barrel Brewing. A portion of the proceeds from the sales of Hazy Trail benefit Outdoor Alliance while Nature Calls benefit The Conservation Alliance.
Hazy Trail is 10 Barrel’s first year-round Hazy IPA. Released during the second half of last year, this IPA brings together the juicy, tropical flavors that one expects in a Hazy IPA but without any grainy flavor. There’s a bit of a malt profile that melds well with the juicy, flavorful hops. Hazy Trail sits at 6.2% ABV and just 50 IBU’s and is available in 12oz cans and on draft.
The label artwork on Hazy Trail features a photograph of Haystack Rock, the one located in Cannon Beach, from Justin Wirtalla. Follow Justin on Instagram or check out his website.
Plus, 1% of all profits go directly back to The Outdoor Alliance – so you can drink easily knowing your brew purchase is helping a good cause. The Outdoor Alliance works to protect the places we ski, hike, climb, paddle, and bike. We bring together the voices of America’s outdoor recreation community to protect the outdoor experience for everyone to enjoy.
Also released late last year is Nature Calls, what is described as a Mountain IPA. This IPA brings together characteristics of both a West Coast IPA and a New England IPA. As a fan of the West Coast style, Nature Calls leans more this way, just without much bitterness.
Nature Calls is full of tropical fruit flavors of mango and grapefruit with a bit of piney on the backend. Sitting at 6.5% ABV and 55 IBUs, Nature Calls is available year-round in 12oz cans and on draft.
A portion of all proceeds from the sales of Nature Calls benefits The Conservation Alliance The mission of the Conservation Alliance is to harness the collective power of business and outdoor communities to fund and advocate for the protection of North America’s wild places.
