Sierra Nevada’s Beer Camp is coming to Tampa

Sierra Nevada Brewing Company set out to make history and legacy with the opening of their Mills River facility. While the brewery made history, their legacy is Beer Camp, a concept that has grown to include a festival showcasing craft beer in a given region. This year Sierra Nevada will bring Beer Camp to Tampa and, in typical Sierra Nevada fashion, they are bringing friends.

From Sierra Nevada’s newsletter:

Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. will host its second Beer Camp Across America (BCAA) festival tour in June 2016 with stops in Tampa, Fla., Seattle, Milwaukee, San Francisco, Boston and Los Angeles. BCAA festivals will offer craft beer fans the opportunity to sample specialty brews from hundreds of local and regional brewers while interacting with some of the most influential names in craft brewing. Every craft brewery is invited to pour at any of the six festival locations. Each event will also celebrate and serve six limited edition collaboration beers – each one created by a different regional team of five breweries alongside Sierra Nevada.

Cigar City Brewing Skyline

On the Cigar City/ Sierra Nevada collaboration

Ever since they announced their collaboration with Sierra Nevada in July of 2013, fans of Cigar City Brewing have been wondering exactly what kind of beer that these two stalwart brewers would create. The answer arrived in the Sierra Nevada newsletter:

If only our pilot brewery had a saloon door. It would have swung nonstop in January as one talented craft brewer after another visited us to dial in Beer Camp Across America recipes. We’re almost ready to taste Ninkasi’s foreign cream stout (with coffee from their stomping grounds!) and Cigar City’s tropical Maibock.

Once this project is finished, Sierra Nevada will release a mixed twelve-pack of beers with one collaboration beer from each of the eleven collaboration partners, plus a twelfth collaboration with homebrewers from the area of their new brewery in North Carolina.
