Reviving the Spirit of Collaboration in Central PA with 717 Collaboration Beer
In the heart of Central Pennsylvania, a remarkable reunion is taking place as seven breweries join forces to bring back the celebrated 717 Collaboration Beer.

John Trogner, co-founder of Tröegs and head brewmaster, underscores the collaborative nature of this endeavor. According to Trogner, “Whether we’re longtime locals or fresh transplants, we’ve unified with the common goal of brewing great beer and fostering great friendships right here in the 717.” For those keen on exploring more about these breweries or planning a craft beer tour, BreweriesNearMe.us offers an extensive guide to unforgettable beer experiences across Central PA and beyond.
A Harmonious Brew: The 717 Collaboration Beer
The newly resurrected 717 Collaboration Beer showcases a harmonious blend of styles, made under the expert guidance of Hannah Ison, Zeroday Brewing’s Director of Brewing Operations. Brewed at Zeroday’s facility in Harrisburg, this West Coast-style Pilsner pairs the crisp, malty essence of a pilsner with the aromatic hoppiness reminiscent of a traditional West Coast IPA. Crafted with Mosaic, Nelson Sauvin, and Solero hops, this 6.3% ABV beer is a testament to the innovative spirit of the region’s brewers.
Collaboration brews like the 717 are not only about creating exceptional beer but also about sparking conversations and cultivating relationships within the beer community. “It’s proof that beer brings people together,” Ison proudly states. This brew stands as a reminder of the unifying soul of craft beer, a trait that breweries everywhere continue to celebrate.
