Hop Chowda Day 2025

Goldwater Brewing Co. is proud to announce the return of Hop Chowda Day on Saturday, December 13th, 2025, at its Old Town Scottsdale brewery. Now in its second year, the event marks nine years of Hop Chowda Hazy IPA, the brewery’s flagship Hazy IPA and one of the most beloved beers in its lineup. This year’s celebration features four limited edition Hop Chowda variants, fresh coastal bites from Chula Seafood, a live DJ set, and exclusive merch. 

Debuting in December 2016, Hop Chowda quickly became Goldwater’s best selling IPA and a fixture in the Arizona craft beer scene. This year’s event builds on that history with four brand new variants, a live DJ set from 12-7 PM, and a continued partnership with Chula Seafood, who will be onsite serving lobster rolls, fish & chips, chowder fries, and cups of chowder from 12–7 PM (or until sold out). This year’s Hop Chowda limited edition variant lineup hits the taps starting at noon, featuring Mango, Peaches & Cream, Orange Cranberry, and Double Dry Hopped. All of which will only be available on draft. Don't worry, the original Hop Chowda will of course be available as well throughout the day both on draft and in to-go 4-packs.
