Sasquatch American Strong Ale was brewed in collaboration with the Eugene area brewers to celebrate the life of deceased brewer Glen Hay Falconer, otherwise known as the “Sasquatch”. The recipe was his flagship brew during his career at the Wild Duck Brewpub in Eugene, Oregon.

Sasquatch has a deep mahogany color and a body that is toasty-sweet. Willamette, Cascade, Centennial, Chinook and Saaz hops give an incredibly rich and complex herbal flavor and crisp bitterness that remind you that this is “beer”.
17.5 Deg Plato OG 6.9% ABV 65 IBU
Hopworks will contribute 10% of the proceeds from the sales of Sasquatch Strong Ale to the Sasquatch Legacy Project, a non-profit which raises money to send deserving brewers to brewing school.

Thanks Hopworks. And thanks to all that participated in this collaboration. All of which should be available at the KLCC fest this weekend.
