Laht Neppur Takes Third at Palouse Cabin Fever Brew Fest

PALOUSE, Wash. – Laht Neppur nabbed another win at the Palouse Cabin Fever Brew Fest on Feb. 9 where it took third place with its Spiced Peaches and Cream ale.

Conditions this year were brisker-than-usual at the popular indoor/outdoor event but that didn’t interfere with sellout sales of 650 tickets. The benefit is put on by the “Brew Crew” to raise money for the Palouse Community Center.

Laht Neppur is a repeat favorite at the event and has taken home the Best Cure for Cabin Fever trophy more than once. This year, Laht Neppur competed against 10 breweries and 33 craft beers.

Laht Neppur took its Piper Canyon Scotch Ale, Waitsburg Winter Warmer (spiced ale) and earned third place with its Spiced Peaches and Cream Hefeweizen. The Best Cure for Cabin Fever award went to Rants & Raves Brewery with its Anonymous IPA. Mountain Lakes Brewing Company took second place with its Maple Bar ale.
