Fleet Pale Ale was specially created by Burning Beard Brewing Company to commemorate the Fleet Science Center’s 50 years, and this Friday, beer and science enthusiasts can taste it. WHAT: Fleet Pale Ale tasting WHEN: Friday, June 2, 4–7 p.m. WHERE: Burning Beard Brewing Company, 785 Vernon Way, El Cajon, CA 92020 Jeff Wiederkehr, cofounder and head brewer, and Mike Maass, cofounder and brand and marketing director at Burning Beard, are excited to commemorate the 50th anniversary of a place that has inspired them throughout their lives. “The Fleet holds a special place in our hearts,” Maass says. “Growing up in San Diego, Jeff and I both have fond memories of the Fleet.” Wiederkehr and Dylan Brown, Brand Ambassador at Burning Beard, will be at the free tasting to offer demos and all the information anyone could want about the science of beer and, specifically, Fleet Pale Ale. Maass adds that a Fleet-Burning Beard partnership makes sense because the two organizations align in their values. “Like the Fleet, Burning Beard is proud to support the community, charities and nonprofit organizations of San Diego.” San Diego brewing and science fans certainly will want to pick up a can or six to take home. In fact, the can itself is a collectible. Inspired by one of the Fleet’s most iconic experiences, 70 mm films in the Heikoff Giant Dome Theater, the can’s design incorporates Burning Beard’s skull logo with imagery inspired by Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey to depict an astronaut enjoying a film on the giant dome screen. “The can says it all,” Maass says. “Brewed in collaboration with San Diego’s Fleet Science Center, Fleet Pale Ale commemorates 50 years of community, connection, and the power of science. Double dry-hopped with astronomic portions of Citra, Strata, and Cryo Cascade hops, Fleet takes the Beard’s flagship pale ale, Circle of Hops, to new heights of hoppy, aromatic goodness. Craft beer and science … elevating the human experience through the ages. Blast into a Fleet today!” Burning Beard will donate to the Fleet $1 per each can of Fleet Pale Ale sold. The craft beer is available, while supplies last, at the Fleet’s Craveology Café and at concessions at the Heikoff Giant Dome Theater and at Burning Beard’s Tasting Room.
