SEATTLE, Oct. 26, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- PicoBrew, maker of the world's first craft beer brewing appliance, caps off Pico Model C Launch Week by announcing today that it now offers 100 varieties of beer and kombucha in PicoPak form. PicoPaks are biodegradable recipe packs that contain the fresh hops and grains needed to brew fresh craft beer or kombucha with PicoBrew's home brewing systems, Pico Model C or Pico Pro. PicoPaks can be purchased online in the BrewMarketplace.
A fellow Seattle-based craft brewery, Stoup Brewing, contributed their Robust Porter as the 100th PicoPak. Rich in color and character, Stoup's robust porter conjures up memories of decadent chocolate treats dipped in coffee. Hints of dark chocolate, roasted coffee and light malty sweetness are the result of a complex malt profile including chocolate malt, roasted barley, roasted wheat and roasted rye.
"We love what PicoBrew is doing to highlight and celebrate small craft breweries around the world. By offering our Robust Porter as a PicoPak, we're introducing people everywhere to the Seattle beer scene," said Brad Benson, Co-Owner and Head Brewer, Stoup Brewing.
PicoBrew will celebrate tonight with the ultimate craft beer tasting, hosting beer industry insiders and media in the PicoBrew Tap Room with a choice of all 100 of its craft beer brews available on site, as well as tasting flights curated by PicoBrew's team of experts. To commemorate the occasion, serving kegs representing each of the 100 brews were also mounted to the wall of the PicoBrew Tap Room!
"When we started PicoBrew, we always wanted to keep the focus on the amazing craft breweries who care immensely about the quality of their beer and about their customers," said Dr. Bill Mitchell, CEO, PicoBrew. "As brewers ourselves, we have so much respect for what these guys do and we're proud to share 100 of their recipes with Pico Pro and Pico Model C brewers around the world. Cheers to many more PicoPaks to come!"
This week was full of product pre-orders, releases and announcements – the Pico Model C craft beer brewing appliance is now available for purchase and pre-orders are available for the PicoStill distilling attachment and PicoFerm smart fermentation device.

PicoBrew works with more than 200 brewery partners around the world to develop PicoPaks, including Flying Monkeys in Ontario, Canada, Straßenbräu in Berlin, Germany and Rogue Ales in Newport, Oregon.
