This here blog talks a lot about collaborative beers. It is an essential aspect of craft beer (in my mind) that there is a working together that you don’t see in other realms of business. No Starbucks / Intelligentsia special coffee releases being one made up example.
But this latest collab is quite different. At least one half is. Off Color Brewing of Illinois is teaming up with none other than Miller High Life. Off Color’s brewer went to “old” Milwaukee and brewed on Miller’s pilot brewhouse (yes, even big brewers have pilot systems) and then the Miller team did the same at Off Color.
No word on what the final beer is but Los Angeles gets a trickle of Off Color beers so we might actually see it in the future.
