Brewed for the 47%!

We the brewers hold this truth to be self-evident: That all men (and women) are entitled to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. And, of course, quality craft beer. This Election Day we urge you to exercise your right to entitlement with the official release of Entitlement Porter, our latest small-batch craft brew. A timely salute to our nation’s political process, Blue Point Brewing Company’s Entitlement Porter is inspired by the recipe for White House Porter, the first alcohol brewed or distilled on the White House grounds.

Brewed using four types of malt and two different hop varietals, Entitlement Porter is well-balanced with notes of espresso and toffee and finishes boldly with an ABV of 5.0%.

Mark Burford said, “We’re not big on making political statements, but we’re big on making great beer, so this was an ideal way for us to embrace the spirit of the season.”

Entitlement Porter is a one-time-only special release, available only in 22-oz. bombers in the tasting room and at select beer stores like Superstar Beverage, Bellport Beer & Soda, Big Z Beverage, and Stony Brook Beverage.

We’re opening the tasting room for special Election Day hours on Tuesday,  November 6, from 12PM – 7PM and we encourage voters to stop in for bombers and to try a fresh sample. Anyone who comes in on Election Day and purchases bombers of Entitlement Porter is entitled to a free pint!

Said Pete Cotter, “While we brewed this for the so-called 47%, we hope you’ll enjoy this limited edition all-American craft beer – no matter which percentage you are.”

At Blue Point, we hope you’ll vote responsibly on November 6th…and remember, the only percentage that should be singled out is ABV!
