Editor’s Note: Hilltop Lager announced its return in a Facebook post on June 26.

Thanks to a new collaborative brewing partnership, the popular Hilltop Lager from Four String Brewing will soon be making a return. Four String closed their doors abruptly last October, citing financial issues as the root of the problem.

“Both the Hilltop Lager and Hilltop Light brands were still growing double digits the day we closed our doors,” stated Four String founder, Dan Cochran.”I felt it was important for those brands to live on. I wanted to get it back to the market as quickly as possible.”

Cochran is partnering with Blake Squires, of the newly launched Hilltop Brewing, which will relaunch the brand and recipe under a new business plan.

“Our goal is to have fresh six-packs on shelves by the 4th of July,” said Cochran. “We have some launch events in the works to show how much we appreciate the support that helped us bring Hilltop back to the market.”

Additionally, Hilltop will be available to the public for the first time at Comfest.
