Pike Brewing Co. Announces New Beers for March

Pike Brewing Co. in Seattle, Washington has announced the release of a new beer, Tripel Kriek, as well as the return of Pike Pils as a year-round beer ahead of St. Patrick's Day.

The full release from the brewery is below, which features various other happenings at the brewery.

Pike Tripel Kriek

Pike Tripel Kriek is a tart and juicy ode to one of Washington’s favorite fruits. To create Pike Tripel Kriek, head brewer Art Dixon second-fermented Pike Monk’s Uncle, our Belgian-style tripel, on tart cherries in Chateau Ste. Michelle chardonnay barrels. Aged for over six months, Pike Tripel Kriek is a draft-only release. Find it on tap at The Pike Pub starting Friday and on tap throughout Washington soon after.

Pike Pils Returns as a Year-Round Beer

Pike Pils, our best-selling rotator beer, returns to the lineup as a year-round offering. Look out for Pike Pils on tap and in cans this March. A zesty, bright, and refreshingly hoppy Pilsner, Pike Pils captures attention with light German malts and whole leaf Mosaic hops. Featuring floral and light melon flavors, this crisp lager offers big aroma, a dry finish, and enough hops to satisfy the Northwest palate.
