KIRKLAND, WA – May 22, 2026 – Chainline Brewing Company, a family-owned brewery renowned for its world-class ales and lagers since 2015, today announced the release of Unity XI, a new light lager crafted specifically to celebrate the excitement of the upcoming World Cup.

Its refreshing profile makes it the ideal companion for extended game-day celebrations, uniting fans through shared passion and exceptional local craft.
“As avid fans ourselves, we’re incredibly excited for the upcoming World Cup and wanted to brew a beer that would pair perfectly with the anticipation and energy surrounding it,” says Scott Holm, Owner of Chainline Brewing Company. “We envisioned something that tastes great, is easy to drink, and has a lower alcohol content so that we can keep the energy up throughout the match. Unity XI fits the bill perfectly and will be our go-to game day beverage!”
Chainline Brewing Company, deeply rooted in its hometown of Kirkland, WA, operates two popular taprooms where the community gathers to enjoy finely crafted beer.
