Nebraska Brewery # 2 – Nebraska Brewing

I first encountered Nebraska Brewing at the GABF a couple years back. I saw a few people in their logo’d shirts and I thought to myself that their brewery must be an oasis to thirsty Nebraskans.

Fast forward to today and you can get some Nebraska Brewing offerings in Portland and even here in LA. I’ve already alerted you to the new Toasted Barn beer. So let’s take a look at two other offerings…..

Hop God
“A beautiful golden crossbreed of a Belgian Tripel and a West Coast IPA. A remarkable explosion on the palate with spiciness, tropical fruit, and a firm citrus bitterness that will leave you begging for more!”

Itty Bitty Betty
“Producing Black Betty results in some significantly sweet spent grains, so we decided that instead of giving it all to the pigs, we’d extract some of that goodness and make a smaller beer out of it. By using different yeast and hops, we created a nice sweet stout that really stands apart from Black Betty.”

Gimme MORE!

Our craft beer distribution is an imperfect but workable system. But from time to time, I wish I could lay my hands on some beers that other folks take for granted. I was reminded of this when Great Divide Brewing started bringing their beers to Los Angeles last year. I was glad to see Hibernation and Claymore in the stores but it got me to thinking about other breweries that I would like to see here in SoCal.

So here is this months list:
Boulevard Brewing – They get to Oregon! How about some Double Wide IPA love here.

Nebraska Brewing – Again, seen them in Oregon. Move a bit south.

50/50 Brewing – I wish they could hop a lift on the Firestone-Walker supply train.
