Share Post

Boulder, CO, October 15, 2014 — Newcomer The Post Brewing Company wowed the crowd at the Great American Beer Festival last weekend, bringing home the Silver Medal for American-Style/International-Style Pilsner in the year-old company’s debut appearance. There were 41 entries into that category.

“It’s huge to win a medal after only 10 months in operation,” said Bryan Selders, Brewmaster at The Post Brewing Company. “The award is a testament to a whole lot of hard work and our driving commitment to brew reliably delicious, drinkable beers.”

Weighing in at 4.5% ABV, Howdy Beer is a smooth, drinkable pilsner featuring American hop flavor and aroma that gives way to a delicate malt flavor, and finishes crisp and clean.

In addition to entering Howdy Beer into the Competition, The Post poured pints of Townie Ale, Meathooks Dark Mild Ale, and Big Rosie Porter at their exhibition booth, giving many fest-goers their first introduction to The Post’s year-old brewing program.

As thrilling as it was to win an award, Selders admits that his favorite part of the festival will always be sharing beers with friends.

“The best part of the festival was having the opportunity to have fun and share great beers, both ours and others, with co-workers and friends both old and new. That’s all I ever look forward to at the GABF.”
