The fourth and final PA Pride beer for 2022, PA Pride 8.0, comes from Deer Creek Malthouse in Glen Mills, writes Franki Rudnesky for Philly Voice.

PA Pride 8.0, an amber lager, will be sold starting Friday at more than 12 breweries.

The beer is made with locally grown and malted barley. It captures warm autumnal flavors, according to Deer Creek.

“We chose to brew an amber lager to highlight the warm flavors of highly kilned malts that make it the perfect beer to enjoy from early fall to the holidays,” said Ted Brochu of Deer Creek Malthouse. “PA Pride Amber Lager layers an aroma of floral honey with flavors of light caramel and toasted bread crust all balanced by a noble hop bitterness.”

PA Pride 8.0 is the eighth beer in the PA Pride series.  The two previous beers, released in the summer, were a fruited sour and a multi-grain saison.

Deer Creek Malthouse started the PA Pride series after it approached the digital promotion company Breweries in Pennsylvania about creating a beer collaboration to help Pennsylvania craft breweries during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The first PA Pride beer, a pale ale, was released in November 2020.
