IndyCar driver Hinchcliffe unveils new beer

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — An IndyCar driver is counting down to the 100th running of the Indianapolis 500 with a new brew.

James Hinchcliffe took to the production line at Flat12 Bierwerks to help in the brewing of the company’s new beer.

It’s called The Bricks, a brick red IPA created in honor of the 100th Indy 500.

It will be available beginning May 6 and will be packaged in 12-ounce cans.

Hinchcliffe’s relationship with Flat12 Bierwerks began in 2012 with the production of Hinchtown Hammerdown, a pilsner-style beer.
