About Escape Brewing
Founders John and Matt both started brewing beer in their garages as a way to “Escape” from their corporate sales jobs. It didn’t take long for us to figure out that our true passion was making beer. What started off as a hobby in our garages quickly turned to an obsession of making beer…a lot of it. Well, the amount of beer that we could legally make for our own consumption.

We both decided to “Escape” corporate America, quit our day jobs, live the American Dream, and open a brewery. Escape Brewing Company was born out of our passion for great beer, creativity, and for the love of our family.

Our motto is DRINK.ENJOY.ESCAPE.

Cigar City Brewing brings Florida Man Double IPA to cans

September 23, 2016

Cigar City Brewing recently added a sliver of news to their newsletter: Florida Man, their double IPA named after the imaginary character that gets unique headlines from many news agencies, will soon be coming to cans instead of its previous format of 22-oz bottles.

From Cigar City Brewing:

Who and What is Florida Man?

A clever Twitter user began compiling all the most Florida-worthy headlines in 2013 and attributing them to “the world’s worst superhero, Florida Man”. What better style of beer to celebrate our unintentional official state animal than a Double IPA? Big in flavor, bold in bitterness and with an ABV wallop that can’t be ignored, our Florida Man Double IPA has been brewed and adjusted several times to find just the right recipe worthy of our beleaguered hero. The final recipe includes six different hops sourced from all over the world. A healthy dose of Simcoe hops adds significant spice and texture while hops with tropical notes like Azacca and Pacific Jade are featured prominently. A hop bill this hefty requires body and sweetness to bring it into balance, and Florida Man’s malt character handles the job as easily as a gator handles a distracted handler’s finger.

Though we’ve released Florida Man in 22 oz. bottles in the past, this go-around we opted for 12 oz. cans. Beyond the litany of benefits that aluminum cans offer (recyclability and more stable beer among them), we wanted to put this beer in a container that Florida men and women could bring to a gator farm, an arena football tailgate or any other Florida Man-approved activities.

Look for four pack cans coming soon to stores throughout Florida, but make sure you grab them as soon as you see them; Florida Man will be gone quicker than you can say “malicious arson”.

Saltwater Brewery to bring LocAle to cans

September 12, 2016

Saltwater Brewery of Delray Beach has been receiving a lot of press for the edible sixpack rings they are rolling out. Saltwater’s year-round offerings have been anchored by Screamin’ Reels IPA and Sea Cow Milk Stout, but soon there will be a third ale in the core offerings, making this a trinity: LocAle Session Ale. Clocking in at 4.7% alcohol, LocAle is a lighter ale and will pair well with the hot outdoor Florida season.

From Saltwater Brewery:

We’ve officially launched our THIRD canned beer…LocAle! 3.7%, and super light and refreshing, LocAle is an all-day drinking beer, perfect for the boat, beach, golf course, or wherever the Florida lifestyle takes you! Come grab a six pack from the Tasting Room. LocAle will be available in the market later this month.

Saint Arnold Brewing introduces two new beers to cans

August 11, 2016

Press Release: With sales of its canned beers doubling during the past six months, Saint Arnold Brewing Co. (www.saintarnold.com), the oldest craft brewery in Texas, is expanding its canning program to include two additional year-round brews. Six-packs of 12-ounce cans of Saint Arnold Weedwacker and four-packs of 12-ounce cans of Saint Arnold Endeavour Double IPA are arriving in stores this week.

Saint Arnold introduced cans about 18 months ago with its top selling year-round beers, Saint Arnold Fancy Lawnmower Beer and Santo joining the Houston brewery’s rotating seasonals. When Saint Arnold introduced Art Car IPA and Saint Arnold 5 O’Clock Pils last year, both were launched in cans rather than bottles. During the past six months, Saint Arnold’s canned beer sales have jumped 110 percent, with cans making up nearly one third of Saint Arnold’s total packaged beer sales.

“There are a lot of things to like about cans – they are easy to carry to the beach and the pool, won’t break, they protect beer from light and are easy to recycle,” said Brock Wagner. “I have to admit that I used to be among those who viewed craft beer in cans with some skepticism, but the level of community acceptance and enthusiasm for cans has made a believer out of me.”

Also arriving in stores, restaurants and pubs throughout Texas, Louisiana and Florida are cans of Saint Arnold Oktoberfest, which is replacing dwindling supplies of Saint Arnold Summer Pils. Each of the new cans features the updated and refreshed Saint Arnold label art introduced earlier this summer.

Saint Arnold Weedwacker has won a medal at the Great American Beer Festival in the German-Style Wheat Ale category for the past three years running – including a Gold Medal in 2015. Saint Arnold Endeavour Double IPA was originally brought to market as Saint Arnold Divine Reserve No. 11. It won the Silver Medal in the highly competitive Imperial IPA category at the 2012 World Beer Cup. Saint Arnold Oktoberfest is a 3-time medal winner at the Great American Beer Festival in the Scottish-Style Ale category.

The new cans of Saint Arnold Weedwacker and Saint Arnold Endeavour Double IPA will phase out 12-ounce bottles. Endeavour will still be available in 22-ounce bottles and both beers will still be available on tap.

About Saint Arnold Brewing Company
Saint Arnold Brewing’s 10 year-round beers, seven seasonals and three special series – Divine Reserve, Icon and Bishop’s Barrel – are made and sold by the company’s staff of 80 dedicated employees. Saint Arnold beers have won 21 medals at the Great American Beer Festival. The brewery on the north side of downtown Houston was listed by Thrillist among the best breweries in America for eating, and Smart Meetings magazine named it among the top breweries to host an event. Saint Arnold is located at 2000 Lyons Avenue and its beer hall open at 11 A.M. Monday through Saturday. For more information, visit www.saintarnold.com.

SaltWater Brewery is canning Sea Cow Milk Stout

February 29, 2016

SaltWater Brewery of Boca Raton is making strides in their beer program–when they started out, the brewery was draft only (only on draft and available in kegs). The brewery then announced the availability of Screamin’ Reels IPA, and now, (as of February 23rd, 2016), SaltWater Brewery has announced the availability of Sea Cow Milk Stout in cans around South Florida.

From SaltWater Brewery:

IT’S HERE!! Your favorite local Milk Stout is now available in A CAN! We are so excited to announce that as of today, you can pick up 6 packs of this delicious Stout right here in our Tasting Room. One of the only Milk Stouts available in a can, Sea Cow is dark, roasty and sweet, with 6% alc/vol, and is balanced by sweetness from the lactose sugar used in the boil.

Named after our native Florida Manatee, the “Sea Cow”, who mainly resides in the murky brackish waters of Florida, this beer is smooth and full bodied, like the Sea Cow himself!

Now that you can keep this beer in your fridge, try pairing it with a hearty dinner or chocolatey dessert…or both! Tag us in photos of you enjoying your Milk Stout in a can and we’ll repost the best ones.

Sea Cow Milk Stout will be available at local and major beer retailers throughout South Florida by next week.

SaltWater Brewery is located at 1701 West Atlantic Avenue in Delray Beach. Look for canned Sea Cow Milk Stout around the South Florida marketplace.

Green Bench gets bigger and cannier

January 21, 2016

Saint Petersburg’s Green Bench Brewing Company has made a name for themselves in “The Burg,” and in their recent newsletter announced that they have made some changes, expansions, bottles, and cans for the beer drinking public in the Tampa Bay area.

From Green Bench Brewing’s newsletter:

At the end of October we completed an expansion of our brewing facility that included the additions of a new glycol chiller, three new 30 BBL fermenters, one 60 BBL brite tank, and most exciting of all one 90 hecotliter oak foeder. This essentially doubles our capacity and will allow us to both brew more of our core brand beers and expand our oak fermented farmhouse brands in both bottle and keg formats.

In the first quarter we’re going to release our next two Webb’s City Cellar Series beers simultaneously.

Webb’s City Cellar Series Lot 2 – 8.2% ABV
All patrons of Webb’s City could park for free in one of several numbered lots. Doc Webb would use the space to house some of his many attractions, including The Famous Flying Zacchinis. To help direct traffic and watch the cars each lot promised to have eyes in the sky at all times. Lot 2 is a Sour Stout, brewed with Brettanomyces and Lactobacillus, aged in Four Roses Bourbon barrels on over a pound and a half per gallon of Blackberries and Blueberries for ten months.

Webb’s City Cellar Series Shopping Cart Cowboys – 5.3% ABV
Never passing up an opportunity to draw a crowd, Doc Webb dressed his staff into cowboy costumes to collect shopping carts in the parking lot, encouraging them all to lasso the carts from customers. Shopping Cart Cowboys is a Golden Sour Ale brewed with Lactobacillus and two strains of Brettanomyces that was aged in White Wine barrels with Grapefruit.

Lastly, we’ve been running several tests to prepare for year round branded sour beers that will eventually not be one off brands. The first branded sour beer will be released within the next couple of months:

Parallax – 7% ABV
Parallaxis, or “alteration,” refers to the noticeable difference in position, shape, and motion of objects from separate lines of sight. Our base Dark Sour, Wilbur, which is traditionally aged in wine barrels, has a rich and resolute, chocolate-like flavor, and a brilliantly balanced acidity. Parallax is a slight alteration of Wilbur, brewed with two strains of Brettanomyces and Lactobacillus, Parallax was aged in Bourbon barrels on over a pound per gallon of Raspberries.

Finally, the brewery is getting cannier:

As this new year kicks off, we’re also excited to announce that we’ll be releasing our first canned products into the Tampa Bay marketplace the week of January 11th. Be sure to look for our Sunshine City, Happy Hermit Pale and Green Bench IPA wherever great craft beer is sold!

Darwin Brewing Company is canning soon

May 29, 2015

Darwin Brewing Company of Bradenton has been teasing their fans for a while now about their desires to can their core beers. As of this week, canning is no longer theoretical, as the brewery has posted picture of screen-printed cans of Pirata Pils, Circa 1926 Tangerine Wheat, and Summdayze IPA.

Fresh off the heels of the release of Aguanile, the Maibock collaboration with Cigar City Brewing aged on Amazonian wood, the brewery has now crossed another milestone as cans will begin flowing out soon, as they don’t do so well as planters or keepsakes.

Darwin Brewing Company is located at 803 17th Avenue West and they currently have quite a few cans in their house.
