Honoring Veterans with a Special Brew: Adirondack Brewery’s DD-214 Blonde IPA
In a heartwarming tribute to Veterans Day, Adirondack Brewery has crafted something truly special this year. A group of veterans, led by Adirondack Brewery Brewer Bob Shafer, who himself served 6 years in the US Air Force, came together to create a limited-edition beer: DD-214, a blonde IPA.
This unique brewing initiative began in 2020 as Brewer Bob Shafer’s way of honoring fellow veterans. The result is DD-214, a flavorful and distinctive blonde IPA that pays homage to the camaraderie and shared experiences of those who have served.
Behind the scenes, the veterans at Adirondack Brewery poured their dedication and passion into the brewing process. The attached behind-the-scenes photos capture the spirit of collaboration and the artistry involved in crafting this special beverage.
Tomorrow, on November 11th, Adirondack Brewery is extending a heartfelt thank you to veterans by offering them a complimentary pint of DD-214 with the purchase of a food menu item. This gesture is a small token of appreciation for the immense sacrifices and contributions made by our servicemen and women.
For those eager to savor DD-214, the blonde IPA will be available on draft and in cans for take-home enjoyment. Additionally, it will be proudly served at the Lake George American Legion Post 374.
The return of DD-214 on Friday is a celebration of craftsmanship and camaraderie. Adirondack Brewery expresses gratitude to Brewer Bob Shafer and the group of veterans whose collective effort brings this limited edition blonde IPA to life.
