The Clinton County Speedway has partnered with local brewer, Lee Powers and his Floating Feathers Brewing Company of Mill Hall to produce its own beer.

“Working with Lee and his staff, we came up with the idea of a special beer for our largest race of the season,” says Jason McCahan, speedway promoter. “On Saturday, August 12, we host the 410 Sprint Cars for the Phil Walter Classic, paying $6,300 to win and now we have a beer for our biggest race of the season.”

The beer will be a 16-ounce pilsner. The can features a checkered flag background with the Clinton County Speedway and Floating Feathers Brewing Company logos as well as a picture of Billy Dietrich’s #8 Sprint Car. Billy Dietrich of Billy Dietrich Racing is the defending champion of the Phil Walter Classic.

Five-Hundred cans of the beer are being produced by Floating Feathers Brewing Company.

“We are very excited at Floating Feathers to provide locally made beers and ciders with local ingredients for our local speedway,” says Lee Powers, “Giving back proceeds of every beer to improve our local track is important to us. Come out and enjoy the fast-paced action of the Phil Walter Classic with a Floating Feathers brewski.”
