Eight Beer By Troy Aikman
To make the best, we tapped the best. Thanks to the tireless work of brewing scientists at Oregon State University, we created something that makes us all proud.
What makes Eight Beer stand out
Eight Beer is built around a simple promise: crisp, refreshing flavor without heaviness. The result is an easy-drinking light beer that’s designed for social occasions—watch parties, backyard grilling, golf rounds, and “just one more” moments. The brewing team behind EIGHT Brewing Co. leaned on research and quality control to dial in consistency, so you get the same clean sip from the first pour to the last.
If you’re stocking up for a crowd, light beer is one of the safest picks because it’s approachable for a wide range of drinkers and pairs with almost any menu.
What to expect in the glass
Eight Beer is designed to be clean, crisp, and genuinely easy to drink—more of a “reach-for-another” light beer than a heavy, bitter pour. It’s a great option for watch parties, cookouts, and any time you want something refreshing that won’t overwhelm food. The profile leans smooth and balanced, with just enough hop character to keep it lively, and a finish that stays bright and not overly sweet.
Why the ingredient choices matter
This beer emphasizes process and quality inputs, including organic grains and a “no shortcuts” approach. If you’ve had light beers that feel watery or bland, the goal here is different: keep it light, but still give it a polished, satisfying sip. It also fits well for people who pay attention to the basics—like calories and carbs—without turning the drinking experience into a compromise.
Serving and pairing ideas
Serve it well-chilled for maximum crispness. It pairs easily with classic game-day foods (wings, pizza, burgers), grilled meats, tacos, and salty snacks. Hosting tip: keep a cooler stocked and rotate fresh ice so every can stays consistently cold—temperature makes the biggest difference in how a light beer tastes. If you’re building a simple crowd-pleasing lineup, Eight Beer is a safe “universal” pick that works with almost any menu.
Quality in, quality out. Brewing with organic grains and without adjuncts is more expensive, but over time, if more brewers adopt the practice, the market will respond. We look forward to the day when quality reigns supreme.
For centuries, brewers have known that hops provide flavor and are packed full of helpful properties. We chose hops that maximize those properties, rich in antioxidants. Can you say “Xanthohumol” five times fast?
It’s not just what you brew, it’s how you brew it, that matters. Our beer applies modern techniques to the purest ingredients to achieve a genuinely elite expression.
