You are invited to swing by and raise a toast with brewer Andy Cummings
and the Full Sail Crew to celebrate Oregon Craft Beer Month and to “Meet
the Brewer and the Beer” at their Riverplace Brewery in Portland, on
Monday, July 13th from 5:00 to 6:30PM and at the Full Sail Tasting Room
and Pub in Hood River, on Thursday, July 16th, from 5:00 to 6:30PM.

In Greek mythology ambrosia was considered the drink of the gods.
Rightfully so that brewer Andy Cummings has crafted this heavenly red
ale; its namesake also means “delightful liquid”. This medium-bodied,
dry-hopped red ale was brewed with a variety of specialty malts
(Crystal, Munich, Honey and Carafa) with a pronounced hop flavor and an
emphasis on the aroma from the dry Brewer’s Gold hops.

Living up to Full Sail’s reputation as “brewers of godlike nectar,” Andy
notes that his inspiration was to brew something for any beer lover to
enjoy midst the summer’s hellacious heat. “It’s generously hopped, but
the alcohol is on the lighter side, making it easy to drink more than
just one… and perhaps experience a bit of that immortality.” ABV 4.9%
IBU 53.

Full Sail’s Brewer’s Share beers will be exclusively available on tap at
Full Sail’s Tasting Room and Pub in Hood River, Oregon, and at Full
Sail’s Brewery at Riverplace, in Portland, Oregon. Growlers to go are
also available. The next Brewer’s Share will be crafted by Full Sail
brewer Nathan Jacobson and is expected in early September.
