Our general manager, Erin, was tasked in creating her own collaboration beer at the beginning of this year. She chose @riverlandsbrewingcompany because they make great beer in every style!
Erin chose to brew a West Coast Pilsner because she loves clean drinking hoppy beers. This is a beer that will be great for the warm weather and can really be enjoyed by any beer drinker.
Message in a Bottle(shop) West Coast Pils will be available on draft and in 4-packs to go at our Release Party on Saturday, May 25th at 12pm!

About the beer:
Brewed specifically for our castaway comrades at The Open Bottle. Message in a Bottle(Shop) is a West Coast Pils, hopped with Mosaic, Simcoe, and Comet hops. Don’t worry, we’re not leaving you stranded out in the hot sun without a cool, refreshing bevvy to enjoy! This crisp, hoppy pils will surely be your pick if you’re planning to get stuck on a desert island. Just don’t get too distracted sipping away, or you might miss the next passing cruise ship.
