“I’ve got your pitcher, I’m drinking with you. Beer Maria, count me in. There’s ale at the bottom of this can so just say when.” All Time Low are making it count by collaborating with Baltimore brewing company, Full Tilt Brewing, to make a blonde ale called ‘Beer Maria, Count Me In’-- and they have fans wrapped around their fingers with excitement.

During a discussion with The Baltimore Sun, vocalist Alex Gaskarth was asked to comment on the news. “I imagined myself standing outside at a concert, and thought about what I’d want to be sipping on a hot summer day, watching a rad band,” he said.

This blonde ale is said to have a citrus hop note to it, making a nice summer beer with Warped Tour vibes. The can itself has similar artwork to So Wrong, It’s Right-- the well-known album that includes the platinum-certified single that inspired this collaboration, “Dear Maria, Count Me In.”

Full Tilt Brewing is holding a launch party for the beer on January 26th. This limited edition ale will also be available for purchase at All Time Low’s hometown show at The Otto Bar on January 31st. All $5 shows are sold out; however, so the best option for trying this anticipated ale is through attending the launch party. According to Full Tilt Brewing’s event details, “a little birdie tells us All Time Low may play a song or two…” Definitely not an event to miss out on.

It comes as no surprise that All Time Low would create a band inspired beer, especially after dedicating a whole song to one (Stella). Artists such as Frank Turner, Pixies, and even Queen have all created music-inspired beers. In fact, this is not the first alcoholic beverage that All Time Low has created. The band had previously released a wine collection called ‘Everything is Wine’ to go along with their single “Everything is Fine.” The first batch of this signature cabernet sauvignon is completely sold out; however, you can still order the holiday two-pack, including a cabernet sauvignon and blanc sauvignon through the Everything is Wine site.

We can only hope that All Time Low creates a site for this collaboration as well. Guitarist, Jack Barakat, also joined the alcohol business in the past, having opened up two bars on opposite ends of the country. In their hometown of Baltimore, Barakat co-owned The Rockwell. Across the country in LA, where Barakat now resides, The Riff was opened up. Hopefully, this will not be the last we see of All Time Low mingling in the alcohol industry. 

All Time Low have released their latest single “Some Kind of Disaster”, and beginning a whole new era. “Some Kind of Disaster” is available to listen to on all streaming platforms.
