Costco Drops Kirkland Craft Beers | Oakland News

Costco is quietly ending its two-year partnership with Deschutes Brewery, pulling the plug on the beloved Helles Lager and Vintage Ale — both award-winning, fan-favorite beers priced at just thirteen ninety-nine for a twelve-pack. Production is winding down this month, with the brews likely disappearing from shelves by September or October. The collaboration, launched in December 2024, helped Deschutes rebound after a sales slump and even pushed them into the top ten U.S. craft breweries. Fans are devastated — calling the Helles Lager one of the best lagers ever made for the price. No official reason has been given for the split, though these were Costco’s only private-label beers and hugely popular. Stock up now — this might be your last chance.
