Rain Check by Sierra Nevada
Rain Check Spiced Stout is the brewery’s answer to the merciless wet weather that plagued and slowed construction of the new site since breaking ground in April 2012. Last year, North Carolina had one of the wettest years on record with more than 75 inches of rain followed by bitter cold and snow that dampened construction efforts.
Rain Check is the first specialty beer brewed at the new facility and marks the first of many original beers Sierra Nevada will create with the tastes of the local western North Carolina community in mind. Rain Check with be available in packs of four 12-ounce bottles and on draught in North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, and Georgia starting in mid-June.
