Owing to popular demand and a sense of history, Athens-based Terrapin Beer Co. recently announced the limited-release return of its first product, the celebrated Rye Pale Ale.
“For us, this is nostalgia, because this is what put us on the map,” said Spike Buckowski, brew master and co-founder of Terrapin, on Friday afternoon. “For us to bring it back is very special.”
Buckowski, who along with John Cochran established Terrapin in 2002, said Rye Pale Ale began life in his home, and the product turned out to be a hot commodity from the very beginning.
“I had been brewing Rye Pale Ale in my basement before I became a professional brewer, and after brewing school and working at a professional brewery and finally starting Terrapin back in 2002, that’s what we launched with,” he said.

Denver is known as the Mile High City, not because marijuana is legal here, but because its elevation is 5,280 feet one mile above sea level.
Denver is Colorado s state capital and the most populous city in the state. Dotted with world-class museums, gorgeous public murals, and city parks, it s also a gateway to the Rocky Mountains. Denver is home to the second-largest performing arts center in the U.S., after Lincoln Center in New York, and is frequently cited as a top city for singles.
Sports fans can watch the Denver Broncos play football, the Colorado Rockies play baseball, or the Denver Nuggets play basketball. Prefer hockey or soccer? Check out the Colorado Avalanche or Denver Outlaws. Looking to get some exercise? Take a hike in the Rocky Mountains or hit the nearby ski slopes.
Loaded Leprechaun Stout.
Now through March 7, guests can get sham-rocked with a splendid stout that’s rich in color with a nice balance of malt and roast characters, resulting in a perfectly smooth and creamy taste.

“The past year has been challenging, so we want to do what we can to give back to the communities we serve,” said Josh Kern, Chief Marketing Officer for SPB Hospitality. “This is a fun way for our guests to try a delicious new stout, while raising money for local charities.”

Some people have favorite beers that suit them no matter the occasion. Others, however, consider certain brews to be seasonal in nature – bright wheat beers for the summer, a marzen to welcome the fall, for instance.
But judging by the somewhat less than favorable conditions of the past few weeks, tis the season for the heftier savor of dark-hued ales.
The Boone County Brown from Bur Oak Brewing Company in Columbia is a welcoming American brown ale, with a creamy head and friendly aromas of toasted grain and cola.
