Earth Rider Earns Two Silver Medals at the 2020 Great American Beer Festival®
North Tower Stout and Royal Bohemian Pilsner were recognized at world’s largest professional beer competition
Earlier this month the Brewers Association awarded 272 medals to 240 breweries across the country during the 2020 Great American Beer Festival (GABF) competition awards ceremony. The best beers in 91 beer categories covering 170 different beer styles were awarded gold, silver, and bronze medals during a virtual ceremony hosted on The Brewing Network.
We are proud to report that our Royal Bohemian Pilsner took the silver in the category of Kellerbier or Zwickelbier and our North Tower Stout won silver in the category of Oatmeal Stout. We have them both on hand so come on down and give ’em a go!
“This year’s GABF competition may have looked a little different, but the beers entered into the competition were as impressive and innovative as ever,” said Chris Swersey, competition manager, Great American Beer Festival. “This has arguably been one of the most challenging years breweries have ever faced, so we hope these awards serve as a symbol not only of brewing excellence but also the resiliency of the craft brewing community as a whole.”
“This is incredibly validating and inspiring for our entire team,” said Tim Nelson, President at Earth Rider. “In our first three years of brewing, Earth Rider has collected a GABF gold, two GABF silvers, and a World Beer Cup bronze.” For more information on the GABF competition, including a complete 2020 winners list and photos, visit GreatAmericanBeerFestival.com.
Introducing our Small Batch Series
You’ve come to know our flagship beers for their dependable drinkability. They are the brews we hope stay stocked in the center of your fridge. We are proud to consistently craft these aces, but, we also enjoy a little experimentation! Thus, our Small Batch Series. It is a limited release of a curated selection of our unique beers. We are starting with 3 more familiar favorites: ApriCrush, Tap Shack Caribbean Lager and Allouez Amber Ale. They are Cedar Lounge exclusive beers available in 6 packs of 12oz cans. Grab some before they are gone!
The First Release of our Mixed Fermentation Series
We just introduced the first of our Mixed Fermentation Series with our Cedar Sour Red. It is a beer that has been 3 years in the making! The base is our Allouez Amber, blended, and aged in French Oak barrels with a mixed culture of yeast and bacteria. It’s pretty sour, a lil’ carbonated and a whole lotta DELICIOUS! You can pick some up at the taproom or with many of our retail partners.
