This year is the second annual McPaws Oktoberfest celebration.

Founded in 1998,  McPAWS is the Regional Animal Shelter for Central Idaho.  It also has one of the highest “save” rates in the nation.

Last year alone McPaws was able to provide a safe haven for 614 lost, abandoned, and unwanted animals.  They found ‘forever homes’ for 453 animals, and returned 121 lost animals to their families. No healthy, adoptable animals were euthanized.   The facilities currently provide shelter for 75 cats and dogs.

The Salmon River Brewery supports McPaws non-profit organization with donations each year.

If you or anyone you know is interested in adopting an animal we recommend you visit McPaws Regional Animal Shelter in McCall or online:   http://www.mcpaws.org/

‘I ran the whole time accept for a lunch stop at the summit of Lick Creek & a quick jump in the Little Payette at the Snowdon Wildlife Sanctuary.   It was an absolutely beautiful day for a run,’ said Utter.

Utter is a Heli-Rappellers of the Krassel Ranger District.  Krassel helibase is located along the South Fork Salmon River near Yellow Pine, Idaho.  The base has no electricity or telephones.  The area offers the outdoor enthusiast opportunities for hiking, mountain biking, fishing, and hunting during recreational time.  Physical fitness is a top priority for Krassel Helitack Heli-rappellers, as proven by Utter.

At the end of his race the crew at the Salmon River Brewery had a 33 ounces of Udaho Gold awaiting Utter.

One of the first comments from Utter when he arrived at SRB was,  ‘I ran 42 miles for a Udaho Gold at the Salmon River Brewery.  What would you do?’

We toast his strength & determination in running extra miles for the reward of a good beer.  Cheers Craig!

SRB will be CLOSED Sunday and Monday. Our Brewshi Maki (rolls) will only be available Friday and Saturday.
We will be OPEN Tuesday thru Saturday 4 to Close (10 to 11pm)
New Beers:
Nutty AmBro! Brother to the BrAmber. 4.8%ABV. Deep Amber in color with slight hop balance. A nice toasty biscuit flavor comes thru with the addition of brown malts. SMOOTH.
Black Happy IPA:
6.5% ABV. Special sparging techniques give this beer the look of a porter but the flavor and aroma of an IPA. A large Munich malt bill and the addition of flaked barley delivers a smooth mouth feel. With copious additions of high alpha magnum hops the extra body balances out. We didn’t stop there. We dry hopped with pounds of whole leaf Hoods and added some American oak chips to conditioning. Black and Happy!
Wet Hop Wicked:
4.5% ABV. We harvested these hops from our 60 plant hop garden in Emmett. And picked feverishly for 10 hours. At just under 15 hours the hops were in the brew!
This brew is light in color and dry allowing the 90 pounds (12 pounds per barrel!) of fresh hops to dominate flavor. Only 6 pounds were added in the boil for bittering. The remaining 84 pounds were added post boil in our mash tun and allowed to soak. A floral and fruity nose results with a silky fresh hop flavor that is wicked indeed!
Stay tuned for the release of our One Eyed Pumpkin People Eater Ale!
Cheers!!
