JACKSON, Wyo. — An ode to the local mountain bike singletrack, the Putt-Putt Trail Ale is the latest release from Snake River Brewing, just in time for the summer season in Jackson Hole.

Made in partnership with nonprofit Friends of Pathways (FOP), a portion of proceeds from Putt-Putt Trail Ale support FOP’s maintenance of Jackson Hole’s beloved 152-mile local trail system.

Named after the Putt-Putt trail in Cache Creek, this summer ale is an easy drinker and perfect for any day. Loaded with Centennial and Strata hops, the new brew has notes of citrus, pine and strawberry. The sweetness it leaves on your lips will keep you coming back for another sip.

“Many of our staff are mountain bikers, trail runners, and semi-pro dog walkers, so it only makes sense to develop a novel beer to support the Friends of Pathways crew and give folks a refreshing brew to share with friends at the trailhead,” Snake River Brewing Sales Director Elliott Wilkins said.

Putt-Putt Trail Ale was created by SRB brewer John McCarthy, an avid mountain biker who can ride right from his house to the Putt-Putt trailhead without getting in his car, and after, can ride right to work at the brewery.

Friends of Pathways promotes sustainable transportation and healthy recreation in Jackson Hole. Putt-Putt Trail Ale and the people who created it encompass these values.

“Friends of Pathways is thrilled to partner with Snake River Brewing to create an ale that supports our trails,” Friends of Pathways Communications and Advocacy Director Sam Petri said. “We maintain 152 miles of front country trails in Jackson Hole. These trails are located close to neighborhoods and provide access to some of the most cherished places in our valley. We are working to connect every neighborhood in Jackson Hole to a pathway or trail. Proceeds from this beer will help make that a reality.”

Bike, blade, skate or scoot on over to the SRB Brewpub and try a pint or grab a six-pack; available all summer long. Look for Putt-Putt at select local and regional restaurants and retailers.
