On December 21, 1968 the United States launched the largest rocket ever built. The propulsion system hurled the astronauts and the 180 ton spacecraft toward the moon at a rate of 6000 mph. This rocket technology, developed by a company here in Jet City, enable three astronauts to reach the moon first. Had they been able to toast this event, it might have been with Rocket Red Ale. A fiery blend of premium malted barleys and the finest northwest hops, Rocket Red Ale will put your pallet into orbit!
