"Especially as we head into fall, one of the most quintessential seasons for both brands, it was our mission from the start to create a beer that could be enjoyed by everyone outdoors - whether you're a weekend warrior, urban explorer, or simply looking for a delicious new lager to try out with friends."

"At L, we're passionate about celebrating the spirit of New England and the joy of the outdoors, and our partnership with Harpoon Brewery captures that perfectly," says Nick Wilkoff, L Chief Marketing Officer. "From our limited-edition Harvest Lager to the fall pop-up events, we're excited to offer new ways for people to enjoy the season with friends and family, continuing our tradition of bringing people together outside for more than 100 years."
