Bottle Release Party for Upright's next Untitled seasonal

Upright Brewing, LeftBank Project Building, 240 N. Broadway, Portland

4:30 PM - 9:00 PM

Friday September 24th 430-900pm
Upright Brewing Tasting Room
240 N. Broadway in the basement of the Leftbank Project Suite 002

On Friday September 24th Upright Brewing is hosting a release party for its newest beer in the style of 70’s and 80’s British Punk Rockers who fought the law to death and glory in the clash of the lower class leftists with limited career opportunities.

Upright specializes in farmhouse-inspired brews which are historically working man’s beers and so in the vein of the Punk Rock Warlords who wrote and played music for the poor and disenfranchised, we have decided to leave this brew both nameless and style-less and open to the interpretation of the thinking mans yob’s.

Please join us for a release party at the brewery from 4:30 – 9 pm on Friday 9/24 with DJ Bogman (Abraham Goldman-Armstrong) spinning classic punk before this beer gets lost in the supermarket.

Description:
The beer is well balanced with delicate flavors throughout, using a Munich
lager yeast that highlights the ingredients clearly and gives the beer
a soft yet satisfying finish. Brewed with Canadian grown pilsener malt
and magnum, liberty and tettnanger hops from Mt. Angel. 6.77% abv
