SEATTLE, WASH – For the 31st straight year, Redhook is celebrating the return of colder days and even colder nights with its latest release of long-time seasonal favorite Winterhook. Continuing its tradition of bringing a little holiday variety to this winter warmer, Redhook has once again riffed on the beer’s recipe to create Winterhook #31.
Winterhook
#31 is a dark mahogany, full-bodied beer with an aroma of roasted malt
and a touch of coffee. This year’s brew features a subtle spiciness from
the rye malt and dark stone fruit flavors
from the yeast, for the perfect finish.
“The
real trick with a beer like this is delivering the ideal beer balance
by providing a really nice, full malt flavor without being
overwhelming,” said Redhook Innovation Brewer Nick Crandall. “Striking
this balance makes Winterhook #31 the perfect beer to enjoy after a day
of raking up leaves, hitting the slopes or camping out on your sofa
watching sports highlights with your dogs.”
At
31 years young, Winterhook is one of the longest running beers in the
Redhook portfolio, and it continues to satisfy wintertime thirsts
year-after-year. Winterhook returns this year along with its
fan-favorite ugly sweater coozies, to keep that beer hand warm and
ready for the next snowball fight.
Winterhook #31 hits the shelves in 12-ounce bottles on October 5,
in six packs, 12 packs and as part of Redhook’s “Foursome” variety 12
pack. The beer is also available on tap. Check out the Redhook
beer finder: Redhook.com/find-beer to locate some Winterhook near you. 6.0% ABV,
45 IBU.

About Redhook
Redhook
was born out of the energy and spirit of the early 1980s in the heart
of Seattle. While the term didn’t exist at the time, Redhook became one
of America’s
first “craft” breweries. From a modest start in a former transmission
shop in the Seattle neighborhood of Ballard, to the current breweries in
Woodinville, Wash., and Portsmouth, N.H., Redhook has become one of
America’s most recognized craft breweries.
While
Redhook has “grown up” over the past 30 years, one thing has never
changed — Redhook is still brewing great beers like ESB, Longhammer IPA,
Audible Pale Ale
and a variety of seasonal beers. Most importantly, Redhook has fun
doing it. Redhook beers are available both on draught and in bottles
around the country. For more information, visit
