We partnered up with Firefox to brew a beer created by you, the public! Consumers paved the way for this beer + tech collaboration by providing feedback via an online survey. We asked beer drinkers what they wanted to see us brew all the way down to the hops, malts, ABV, IBU, and even color. After compiling all of the data, the very first Widmer + Firefox beer was born! 

Be one of the first to try Open Sourcery Tropical IPA when we tap it at the Widmer Brothers Pub on Tuesday, May 22nd for our monthly Pints for Portland Happy Hour event.
