Second annual Bucks County Ale Trail collaboration

Visit Bucks County partnered with host Warwick Farm Brewing and the brewers of Bucks County to release the second countywide Bucks County Ale Trail collaboration beer, Expedition Bucks County. This 5.5% Hazy IPA is heavily dry-hopped with Simcoe and Cryo Citra. This blend of hops creates a rich, candied orange flavor with notes of citrus and tropical fruits. A significant amount of oats is added to the mash to enhance the mouthfeel, making for a smooth and satisfying drinking experience.

The beer recipe and label were redesigned for the collaboration’s second year with the beer actively brewing during the event. Having representation from all breweries at the event led to a day of beer tasting from the individual breweries, Fry’s Catering Scratch Kitchen food truck, and catching up with brewers while promoting the Bucks County Ale Trail. 

Breweries in attendance included Aristaeus Craft Brewing Company, Artifact Brewing, Bitchin’ Kitten Brewery, Broad Street Brewing, Broken Goblet Brewing, Bucks County Brewing, Crooked Eye Brewing, Free Will Brewing Company, Free Will Brewing Taproom, Geronimo Brewing @ Lily’s Jury Room, Great Barn Taproom, Iron Hill Brewery & Restaurant, Langhorne Brewing Company, Mystic Ways Brewing, Naked Brewing Company, Naked Brewing Company – Bristol Taproom, Neshaminy Creek Brewing Company, Neshaminy Creek Brewing Company – Dublin, Newtown Brewing Company, Odd Logic Brewing Company, Puck Live by Great Barn, Red Lion Brewery, Second Sin Brewing, Second Sin Brewing – Newtown Taproom, Tranquility Brewing Company, Triumph Brewing Company, Two Rivers Brewing Taproom, Van Lieus Brewing, Vault Brewing Company and Vault Smokehouse. 

The Ale Trail launched in May 2019 with 15 breweries and has since grown to 32 breweries (including taprooms).
