5th Anniversary Virtual H.O.P. (Helping Other People) Party: 6/23 - 7/5
Written By Levante Brewing - June 16 2020
⠀
This year, hosting an in-person party will have to wait; however, now more than ever, it's imperative to continue our mission of Helping Other People. That's why we're planning an extended 5th Anniversary Virtual H.O.P. Party. Between 6/23 - 7/5, we're celebrating our 5th birthday and America's birthday by Helping Other People. Over the course of 2 weeks, we'll have a conga line of tastey brews (new and returning) releasing for curbside pickup and Mercury Can-Delivery, both in cans and in crowlers, with proceeds of one very special "birthday beer" and H.O.P. Party swag purchased between 6/23 - 7/5 benefiting the West Chester Food Cupboard.
⠀
What's brewing for our virtual party, you ask? You can expect some characters to swing through and perhaps we'll resurrect something extraordinary. And of course we'll blow out some candles on our birthday cake. We hear there may even be a new prospect for the Hop Cartel joining the fun. Of course, we couldn't have a party without some glitter so don't forget your shades. Stay tuned as more guests RSVP!

"Sending Hoppy Vibes" Final Week
Written By Levante Brewing - June 01 2020
⠀
Jill & Alyssa
Our first stop this week is a double delivery! Nominated by Christine (shout out to a pervious weeks' winner!), Jill and Alyssa are recently licensed nurses who work together at the same hospital. Oh, and they're twins too! Since the start of the pandemic, Jill and Alyssa have been caring for COVID-19 patients daily. This has been mentally and physically draining for them, but luckily they've had each other to help them through this tough time. Christine let us know that both ladies are huge fans of Levante and would appreciate coming home to a cold beer after a long days work at the hospital. Jill and Alyssa, we hope our care package shows our gratitude! Hoppy Vibes are en route.
⠀
Dr. Meredith
Stop number two is another set a twins, but this time twin bro Mike is nominating his sister, Dr. Meredith (aka "Meme"). Meme is a pediatric dentist in Brooklyn who was called to the emergency unit due to COVID-19. Mike told us that as a pediatric dentist she wasn't prepared for what she'd need to endure helping in the emergency unit, but that didn't stop her. "She powered through and saved lives, and continues to amaze me each day with her strength," Mike said of his sister. Mike nominated his sister because he wants her to have all the hoppy vibes she can get, and the most delicious ones too! Dr. Meme, Hoppy Vibes are heading your way - thank you!
⠀
Robert
Our last stop this week is to a mail carrier from Lebanon, PA. Robert was nominated by his loving wife, Lisa who had this to say about him. "[Mail carriers] have not stopped working since the pandemic started...working 6-7 days a week and about 60+ hours." She let us know Robert is a huge craft beer fan and has enjoyed his Mercury Levante delivery, especially his Tickle Parts smiley glass. She said that despite working so hard in his job, he's still showing up for her and their 2 daughters. "This would really make his day!" she said. Robert - we can't wait to make your day with some Hoppy Vibes!

"Sending Hoppy Vibes" Week 4 Recipients
Written By Levante Brewing - May 19 2020
Last week was our 4th week selecting essential workers nominated by you and sending them "Hoppy Vibes" in the form of a Levante care-package. Reading through your nominations and providing some much-needed fun during this time has been the highlight of our weeks! With this small gesture of our appreciation, we hope to bring these fine folks a fraction of the joy this brings us.
⠀
Logan
⠀
Stop one on our week four journey brings us to Logan, a newly sworn-in police officer in south-eastern PA. Logan was nominated by his brother Zach, who told us he's surviving quarantine one hazy IPA at a time and wanted the same for his brother. As if starting out as a police officer in the beginning of a pandemic wasn't hard enough, the day after being sworn in on March 10th, Logan's wife went into labor seven weeks early! We're pleased to hear baby Gavin is happy, healthy and home, but those first few weeks for Logan and his wife were tough with the strict visitation schedules due to COVID-19 while also juggling a new job. Cheers to you, Logan, on both new roles in your life - officer and dad! Well-deserved "Hoppy Vibes" are heading your way!
⠀
Bobby
Next we're heading down the street to a West Chester neighbor. Nominated by his girlfriend, Mackenzie, Bobby is a Registered Nurse at a nearby hospital who recently completed his nursing degree this passed September. That didn't stop Bobby from diving in head first to be there for patients, especially those with COVID-19. He's even started picking up extra shifts and staying late when his floor needs the help. "At the end of a long shift at the hospital, Bobby always wants to come home and just relax with a nice cold beer! [We] frequented Levante often before the pandemic began. While he enjoys all of your beers, his favorites are Tickle Parts and Cloudy and Cumbersome," Mackenzie told us of Bobby. Bobby, we hope a little Levante "Hoppy Vibes" will help to keep up your positive and caring attitude - thank you!
⠀
Christine
Our final stop for week 4 of "Sending Hoppy Vibes" goes out to a local Levante-loving Pharmacist, Christine. Christine was nominated not by one person but FOUR. How could we not select her this week? Devon had this to say about her mom, "She is the most selfless person I know, and I couldn’t think of a better person that deserves a gift from her absolute favorite brewery! In these times, pharmacists are going somewhat unrecognized for the their contributions to the current situation, and what better way to show her appreciation than some of her favorite beer!" Devon and Christine have been supporters of Levante since opening in 2015 and are looking forward to enjoying a drink at the Taproom soon (us too!). In the meantime, Christine, we hope a little "Hoppy Vibes" can hold you over. Thank you for all you do!

"Sending Hoppy Vibes" Week 2 Recipients
Written By Levante Brewing - April 30 2020
⠀
Week 2 - Recipient 1: Dr. Monica
Our first stop this week is to a local Physician. Ask any of Dr. Monica's patients - she's absolutely beloved, and it's easy to see why from the nomination sent in by her friends, Scott and Deb. Dr. Monica is the kind of physician that will always take the call from any of her patients, no matter what she's doing. Her commitment to her patients hasn't waned despite being drained emotionally and physically during this time. However, through it all, she's remained positive and in good spirits, which is clear from her own social media. Perhaps it's all the love and support she's receiving from her friends and family, including the Tickle Parts beer bomb (we're sensing a theme here). There's more of that heading your way, Dr. Monica, and thank you for all that you're doing!⠀
Week 2 - Recipients 2: Mike and Jaimee
Next stop for this week will be to a dynamic duo household of 2 front line workers - Mike, a constable keeping those working at the hospital and healthcare system safe, and his wife Jaimee, an ER nurse. Nominated by Dave, their neighbor, it was clear that Jaimee and Mike are extraordinary. "Both are exposed to the potential dangers of the virus day in and day out, work long hours in high stress environments, yet do it all with a smile on their face," Dave said of his friends. Through it all, Mike and Jaimee still show up every day for their 2 young girls, and Mike even stepped in to help Dave fix his fence. Dave told us Levante is their favorite brewery, and he knows "an extra special Hoppy Vibe courtesy of Levante would do wonders for picking up their spirits and showing them that everything they do for the community is appreciated...we are lucky to have them as neighbors and friends." Cheers, Mike and Jaimee - Hoppy Vibes are en route!
Week 2 - Recipient 3
Our final stop, a selfish, dedicated, hardworking charge nurse at a nearby hospital, nominated by his adoring girlfriend. Here's what she had to say, "He's been working overtime for weeks on end in their COVID unit. Each day he's there for at least 12+ hours keeping staff and families calm while running around trying to give the best care he possibly can to these suffering patients. He is the most selfless person I know, and he chose to stay distant from me as to not get me infected... We both absolutely love your brews and wish we could be spending our free time together sitting outside the West Chester location and sipping on some heavies... most importantly he is nothing but optimistic about each day, which is crucial and extremely motivating... He sees the worst of this, yet he approaches every situation in life with a positive attitude and a smile on his face." Thank you for all you do, and we hope to widen that smile. Hoppy Vibes are on the way!

"Sending Hoppy Vibes" - Recipient #1
Written By Levante Brewing - April 25 2020
Our first recipient to whom we're "Sending Hoppy Vibes" is a Respiratory Therapist at the Hospital of UPENN. Nominated by her loving husband, Jennifer has spent the majority of her life helping others - starting as an EMT in high school, serving for 7 years in the United States Air Force as part of the "Critical Care Air Transport Team" where she was trained in ventilator management and assisted in air-lifting wounded soldiers to safe zones, she then moved to an outpatient clinic specializing in chronic and genetic lung disease treatments. With the COVID-19 pandemic, Jennifer willingly moved back to working in the hospital to treat and manage active COVID cases requiring either advanced ventilation or advanced oxygenation modalities. Jennifer has many awards and medals recognizing her service throughout her career; however, in the eyes of her 2 young sons, she's nothing short of a super hero.
⠀
Jennifer's favorite beer is Tickle Parts, and we can't wait to bring her some and a small gesture of thanks for her service!
⠀
Do you know someone deserving of Hoppy Vibes? Maybe they're a Health-care worker, keeping our grocery stores clean and well-stocked, or perhaps they are providing some much-needed enjoyment in the form of food or drink. Whoever they are, we want to know about them, and each week from now through May, we'll select 3 nominees to receive a package filled with a variety of Levante libations and swag as a small token of our appreciation for all they do*. No need to re-enter, each week we'll select from all nominations.

Here's how it works:
1. Email us at info@levantebrewing.com with the subject "Sending Hoppy Vibes Nomination"
2. Provide your nominee's name, email, social handle, shipping address and a little bit about why they would benefit from some Hoppy Vibes.

COVID-19 Update From Levante Brewing
Written By Levante Brewing - March 13 2020
As active members of our great communities, Team Levante has been following the situation surrounding COVID-19 and strengthening our policies and procedures in order to do everything in our power to keep our supporters and team members safe and healthy. It's very important to us that we maintain a culture of preparedness, while still promoting balance, normalcy, and enjoyment in our daily lives.
We continue to brew beer at our West Chester, PA brewery, and plan to remain open and fully operational at our two locations - the West Chester Taproom and Levante Stables Indoor/Outdoor Beer Garden in Chester Springs. Until we are mandated otherwise, we do not expect this to change. St. Patrick's Day celebrations are still a go, and the sun will be shining. As always, we'll have your favorite craft creations on tap and in cans (available to-go or delivered directly to your door from our Mercury can-delivery service).
Out of an abundance of love for us all, we'll be making some important changes to our offerings and how we operate at our two locations and out in the world:
- Although the decision has been difficult to make, Levante will be temporarily postponing our attendance at large beer fests and promotional events. We feel that it's important to keep our team close to home, where we maintain more oversight and control over the evolving COVID-19 situation.
- To increase comfort for all and decrease the potential for the spread of communicable illnesses of any kind, we will be temporarily switching to the use of plastic cups at both locations where draught beverages are available.
- For everyone's safety and peace of mind, we've ramped up our cleaning and disinfecting protocols. When you see your favorite Levante Team Member wielding a spray bottle, please allow them a moment to clean your area, and cheer them on as they fight the good fight to keep our community germ-free.
- For the time being, we're pausing fills of personal growlers until further notice. However, your favorite draft options can still go home with you. We'll fill a complimentary new glass 64 oz growler with your purchase. Crowlers will remain available at both locations.
We're all in this together, and we look forward to seeing you for a beer at the Taproom and Stables soon!
Cheers and Much Love,
Team Levante
