Sonoma County, CA—Bear Republic Brewing Company® is happy to announce that its American Brown Ale, Peter Brown Tribute Ale™, will now be available in 12 oz. six-packs.
About Peter Brown, Bear Republic Sales Manager:
Peter Brown, our “Million Dollar Salesman”, was Bear Republic’s Sales Manager for over three years and is missed daily at the Bear since his death in November 2002. Before joining the Bear, he represented our products as one of the top salesmen for Morris Distributing in Petaluma, Ca.
Throughout his career as part of our team, he was a great asset in increasing our distribution and sales throughout Northern California.
During his life, Pete played softball. Pete is ranked as one of the top softball players of all time and took his team to a record fifth National Master’s Softball Championship in September 2002, just two months before his passing. From playing on kid’s softball teams to coaching high school, to being part of several All-American teams, and even playing in international softball tournaments, he will always be remembered as an important part of the team.
In honor of the life of a good friend and an internationally recognized softball pitching ace, Bear Republic released Peter Brown Tribute Ale as a new bottled product in the summer of 2003. Now, it joins the leagues of Bear Republic’s six-packs.
Our rendition of a Strong American Brown Ale, Peter Brown is balanced with a dark grain blend that is pleasing to the eye and smooth on the palate. Truly Peter Brown’s, a man who always lived life to the fullest, we can still see Pete sitting at the bar enjoying a pint. Cheers to you Pete.
