New Seasonal Brewed as a Farewell to Pelican’s Assistant Head Brewer
Pelican has released its newest seasonal, C-YA! which was a recipe of Head Brewer, Jason Schoneman who has been with the Pelican for four years. He will be departing this month for the Midwest with his wife, Hannah and daughter, Indigo to be closer to family. The idea for C-YA! was in the works at the Pelican for about a year until the staff decided Jason should take the lead on making this farewell brew a reality.
C-YA! is Pelican’s take on an American Pale Ale, big on hop aroma and flavor with a balanced malt flavor and bitterness in the finish. It’s made with 100 percent Centennial hops and is unfiltered but not cloudy. It is currently available at the Pelican on draft.

2009 Bad Santa
The Pelican is brewing its mysterious dark elixir, Bad Santa and it’s coming soon. This popular brew is filled with complex malt flavors alongside toasted malt, cocoa-like and roast aromas. The fragrance blends seamlessly with the alluring herbal and floral aromas that come from copious amounts of Fuggle hops. Look for the ornery elf to be available on draft at the Pelican by November 13 and at Portland’s Holiday Ale Festival on December 2-6 as well as the Cascadian Dark Ale Symposium taking place on January 23, 2010 at Belmont Station.
