True Respite Brewing releases The Perfect Day, a Hazy DIPA (8.2%) inspired by a vision of a perfect ride on The Capital Wheel, a Ferris wheel at National Harbor, outside Washington, D.C. , that’s open 24/7/365.
The brew is included in the Elevation Celebration Package feature includes two tickets for The Capital Wheel, two The Perfect Day Beers and two Souvenir Cups (other beverages available as well.)
The name of the ale derives from a day in 2019 when brewery Co-Founders Brendan and Bailey O’Leary took their kids, Aidan and Aislinn, to National Harbor to ride The Capital Wheel. When they arrived they found the harbor was too foggy for viewing sites so they didn’t take the ride. From then on, each time Brendan or Bailey said “no” to something Aislinn wanted, she would mutter to herself that “it’s too foggy.”
Brendan and Bailey decided to name an Inner Circle Series beer after her and released It’s Too Foggy in fall 2019.
National Harbor’s marketing team discovered the brew and story behind it and wanted to help fulfill Aslinn’s desire to experience that perfect day to ride The Capital Wheel. Fast forward to summer 2020, the O’Leary’s collaborated with National Harbor and The Capital Wheel to create a follow up brew to celebrate a perfect day riding The Capital Wheel at National Harbor.
The new brew is a follow up to the previous related brew in the series called It’s Too Foggy.
