Kicks off KEXP radio station partnership with Pickwick and The Grizzled Mighty concert on March 22
SEATTLE, WASH. – MARCH 9, 2016 – Redhook Brewery, a Seattle original
since 1981, launches Extra Special Lager (ESL), a Washington state exclusive, Dortmund-style lager brewed with Washington hops.
To
celebrate the release of ESL, Redhook is teaming up with Seattle radio
station KEXP to bring music — and beer — to the people. To kick off the
partnership,
Redhook will host a private concert at The Crocodile on Tuesday, March
22, with Pickwick and The Grizzled Mighty, two celebrated local bands
that will rock out with big hits like “Hacienda Motel” and “Luna Nova.”
“We’re dedicating Extra Special Lager to Washington beer drinkers, because they’ve supported Redhook since day one,”
said Nick Crandall, lead innovation brewer for Redhook Brewery. “We’re excited to add a lager
to the Redhook lineup. ESL
is refreshing — it’s got lots of flavor, perfect for a barbeque with
friends or those summer concerts that we love so much here in the
Northwest.”
Fans can enter for a chance to win tickets to our private ESL Launch Party at The Crocodile on Instagram by following

Winners will be selected on March 18.
Redhook
fans can find Extra Special Lager throughout Seattle come Spring and
Summer, and at several KEXP events throughout the year, including the
studio grand
opening at Seattle Center and the Concerts at the Mural series.
Extra
Special Lager is available exclusively in Washington state beginning
March 7 and will be sold in package and on draft. Redhook fans can find
Extra Special
Lager and other Redhook favorites on tap at their new Seattle brewpub
location in Capitol Hill, scheduled to open in fall 2016.

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 with its focus
on creating “better beers.” From a modest start in a former transmission
shop in the Seattle neighborhood of Ballard to a Fremont trolley barn
that housed The Trolleyman brewpub, to its
current breweries in Woodinville, Wash., and Portsmouth, N.H., Redhook
has become one of America’s most recognized craft breweries. Redhook
will open a 10-barrel brewpub in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of
Seattle in the fall of 2016.
While
Redhook has “grown up” over the past 30 years, one thing has never
changed — Redhook is still brewing great beers like ESB,
Long Hammer IPA, American Pale Ale and a variety of seasonal beers,
including Blackhook. Most importantly, Redhook has fun doing it. Redhook
beers are available on draught and in bottles and cans around the
country. For more information,
