Here’s a short film celebrating our brewing collaboration with New Trail. It’s a great memory of the brew day, the release day and some wonderful friendships.

Back in April, the Troutbitten crew got together with our long-time friends over at New Trail Brewing company to brew a beer together. The result: Troutbitten Hazy IPA. We worked on this project for over a year, and it was a lot of fun to partner with our favorite brewery. At the end of June, we hosted a beer release party at New Trail, and it was fantastic to see so many familiar faces from the Troutbitten community.
