Gigantic Brewing celebrates 12th Anniversary
Portland, Oregon’s Gigantic Brewing is celebrating another milestone in what has already been a momentous year as the brewery shifts to canning for the first time and debuted a new lineup of year-round beers. On Saturday, May 4th, Gigantic Brewing will commemorate their 12th anniversary at their original location at 5224 SE 26th Ave. and bring back one of their earliest seasonal releases from the early days when the lineup of beers were 100% rotating seasonals other than the flagship IPA.
Since its inception in May 2012, Gigantic Brewing has remained steadfast in its commitment to crafting exceptional brews while staying true to its roots as a small-scale operation. “We would be nothing if it weren't for the people who have supported us, and we would like to invite everyone to a huge party to celebrate,” says Gigantic Brewing co-founder Ben Love.
The anniversary festivities promise an unforgettable Saturday brimming with an array of craft beers, live music, delectable cuisine, and fun.
The first highlight of the celebration is the re-release of High Fidelity IPA, which also happens to be the twelfth seasonal beer ever made by Gigantic. This citrusy and floral IPA, featuring Simcoe and Mt Hood hops atop a base of bready northwest pale ale malt, is one of the brewery's favorite beers. High Fidelity IPA will be available on tap and in limited-release custom cans.
Culinary delights will be provided by the incomparable Nacheaux PDX. Nacheaux isn't just a food truck; they are a flavor experience, blending innovation with a sprinkle of Southern charm and a dash of Mexican flair!
The musical lineup promises to keep spirits high throughout the day, with performances by Dreckig at 1:30 pm, offering Latin dance rhythms fused with elements of krautrock and electronic club music, followed by Heirloom Monsters at 2:30 pm, treating audiences to their unique blend of psychy surf blues. DJ Fernando will keep the groove going with soulful vinyl sounds at 3:30 pm. It all culminates when we turn on the gigantic screen in the Barrel Room and cheer on the Portland Timbers as they take on Charlotte FC on the road.
Gigantic Brewing extends a heartfelt invitation to all to raise a glass in celebration of twelve years of crafting beers meant to be enjoyed with friends new and old. We are very grateful for all your support.
