Made for the Emerald City Supporters, Twin Star Lager is the official “seasonal lager” of ECS. 

It starts with a foundation of malts including Pale, dextrin, Munich, and Vinna. The result is a lager that is a pale bronze while inspiring thoughts of lightly toasted bread. Backing up the line, the beer goes old school with hops German Hersbrucker and Saphir. Complimenting the notes of lightly toasted bread, one cannot escape thinking about this lager paired with a brat or pretzel. 

At 5.3% ABV (alcohol by volume) and 32 IBU (international bittering units), one should head down to Hellbent Brewing Company today from 4 pm.

Then on February 7th, from 12 pm, Hellbent Brewing Company is set to release Lucky Luciano Hop Mob IPA. 

This beer is a juicy style IPA that includes an absolute MOB of hops that it should be a crime. For bittering, we used Simcoe, El Dorado, and Amarillo. Simcoe, Citra, and Azacca were used in the first dry hop addition, and finally we added El Dorado, Cashmere, Sabro, Amarillo, and Mosaic towards the end of fermentation. Please enjoy recklessly (7.3% ABV, 64 IBU).

About Hellbent Brewing Company

Hellbent started with three of us – Jack Guinn, Chris Giles and Randy Embernate – longtime friends and restaurant industry veterans. For us, starting Hellbent was the natural (and the coolest) thing to do, growing directly out of our experience and our love of beer. For years we home-brewed and toiled over our business plan. Then, we met Brian Young – award winning brewer, co-owner and fast friend – who turned out to be the missing link. Within a couple months, we were on the hunt for the perfect location.

We wanted our brewery in Lake City, where Chris and Jack already called home, to contribute to the growing beer scene here. When we stepped into the old CM Hopkins building for the first time, we knew we had found our venue. Starting right away, we gutted it and began the transformation, building with reclaimed wood, steel, good humor, and a fair amount of muscle.

Finally, after years of fierce determination and hard work (including seven months of construction), we opened our doors in the thick of microbrew country. We didn’t do this alone. We are humbled by the support and kindness of our friends and family that helped us along the way. So, to our beer-loving brothers and sisters of the Pacific Northwest, cheers and welcome to Hellbent!
