Ground Breaker Marks 11 Years of Gluten-Free Beer with Anniversary Event

Ground Breaker Brewing is celebrating their eleventh anniversary on Friday, December 30th. The Great American Beer Festival® and World Beer Cup®-winning dedicated gluten-free brewery will be holding their annual double-case discount dock sale at the brewery from 2:00–8:00 PM.

Founder James Neumeister will be offering $20 discounts on mix-and-match cases and chatting with fans of the brewery. Salvi PDX, which began offering their authentic Salvadoran cuisine with a modern twist at the brewery in mid-August, will have a fried chicken special available for the anniversary party.

To mark their anniversary, they brewed their popular Imperial Darkness, an imperial chocolate stout, which will be available along with IPA No. 5, Inclusion Dry-Hopped Pale Ale, Dark Ale, 99 Light Lager, Olallie Blackberry & Rosehip Ale, Defiance Dark Lager, Calypso Juicy Pale Ale, and Cold IPA.

"We just released Imperial Darkness, our imperial chocolate stout," said Jesse Bufton, Head of Operations at Ground Breaker. "It’s a great time to get some cans of this beer for your cellar."

Ground Breaker Brewing opened as Harvester Brewing in late December 2011. Harvester Brewing was the first dedicated gluten-free brewery in the United States. The brewery began to quickly collect its first accolades, starting with a Great American Beer Festival Bronze Medal in the Gluten-Free Category in 2012. The brewery changed its name to Ground Breaker Brewing in 2014. In 2018, they had their first World Beer Cup win, taking home the Silver Award in the gluten-free category for IPA No. 5.

"The brewery never would have made it this far without the dedicated fans of our beers," remarked Founder James Neumeister. "We offer this steep case discount every year on our anniversary to thank our loyal customers and to give everyone an opportunity to stock up before their New Year's Eve parties."
