Port City Brewing

Join the Port City Brewing Company for the release of their new limited time brew, Rivershed Ale, a Dry-Hopped Pale Ale -- made from 100% locally sourced grain.

Port City Brewing Company has always believed in a strong commitment to sourcing high-quality, local ingredients. Rivershed Ale is brewed with the same wheat used in their flagship Optimal Wit since 2013, grown in Virginia in the Northern Neck on the Chesapeake, and packaged by Bays Best Feed. The beer also features Delaware grown barley called Violette, sourced from Proximity Malt in Laurel, Delaware. 

Rivershed was brewed with Loral and Centennial hops - creating a fruity, floral and citrus aroma, and notes o dark fruit and berry on the flavor profile. The beer was dry-hopped with HOPZOOKA, ® a patented method that uses CO^{2 to force hops into the fermenter without exposing the beer to oxygen.} 

To celebrate the release of Rivershed Ale, Port City will host dozens of events in D.C., Maryland and Virginia.
