3 Sheeps Brewing and Milwaukee Uncut podcast have collaborated on a limited edition beer that will be released in Milwaukee next week.

The 5.8 percent ABV Milwaukee Uncut Tropical Pale Ale was brewed by 3 Sheeps Brewing in Sheboygan with Galaxy, Motueka and Rakau hops and will be available on tap and in 16-ounce cans.

“It’s bright. It’s fresh,” said Milwaukee Uncut host and founder of Story Mark Studios, Richie Burke. “If summer in Milwaukee had a flavor, this would be it. It pairs perfectly with the stories, people, sunshine and amazing energy of the city.

“3 Sheeps has been an awesome partner for the last year and we couldn't be more excited to launch a beer with them that represents summer in Milwaukee!"

A launch party will take place Wednesday, July 9 from 5 to 9 p.m. at the Triple Taproom, 2018 E. North Ave., and there will music, giveaways, merch sales and more. 

You can sign up here.

The beer will also be available at bars and retail throughout the state. Use the 3 Sheeps site to find out where. 

“Getting to make this beer with Milwaukee Uncut was an absolute blast and a real privilege,” said 3 Sheeps founder and brewmaster Grant Pauly.

“There’s such a unique vibrancy and energy to life in Milwaukee – it’s creative, bold, and unfiltered – and we wanted to brew something that captured that spirit. This beer is a reflection of that energy: bright, flavorful, and made to be shared.”
