People Powered Party! Craft Brew Collaboration Celebration!

Join the People Powered Party!

KAXE is hitting the road! We want to celebrate the People Powered Pilsner launch with you.

If you haven’t heard, this isn't just a beer; it’s a collective effort to support the independent voice of Northern Minnesota. The KAXE Board teamed up with our friends at Jack Pine, Klockow, and Bemidji Brewing to create a German-American Pilsner that honors our community. By pairing richly flavorful German heirloom malt with bright American hops, we’ve created a highly drinkable, effervescent lager with crisp citrus and spicy floral notes.

The best part? Every sip supports the stories and music you love. A portion of the profits from every People Powered Pilsner sold will be donated back to KAXE / KBXE.

Join our radio family! We want to see you at our official People Powered Party!
