Kiley’s Homegating Beer Picks


What’s a homegating party without beer? Our resident craft beer expert, Kiley, has put together his homegating beer picks for you to try for the next game:

Ballast Point Brewery | Sculpin IPA | San Diego, California

Ballast Point Brewery’s Sculpin IPA is a gold-medal winning beer. It took years to perfect their recipe for this IPA, ultimately creating a beer produced at 5 different hopping stages. There are hints of fruity flavors like apricot, peach, mango, and lemon but still packs on quite a punch with its overall taste. Learn more about the Sculpin IPA here from Ballast Point Brewery.

Trumer Brewery | Pils | Berkeley, California

Trumer Brewery combines purity, tradition, life, and love into each and every bottle. Water, hops, malt, and yeast is all that their Pils is made of. This traditional beer is fantastic when it comes to cooking. You can make an array of recipes for your homegating party with this beer – whether it’s meat, poultry, or seafood. Or enjoy it alone as a refreshing beverage! Learn more about Pils here from Trumer Brewery.
