(Atlanta, GA) – Here’s a peak at SweetWater Brewing’s newest year-round offering, Sweetwater Sch’Wheat (Unfiltered) Wheat Ale.
Per the brewery: “We will be sneaking a few bottles out in Atlanta over the next few weeks in the latest edition of the Tackle Box, and then getting after it with the official release happening at this year’s SweetWater 420 Fest, April 17th and 18th.”
Southampton Brewery and Publick House will follow its spring seasonal, Biere de Mars, with a new summer seasonal beginning this May.
Southampton Keller Pils is an unfiltered Pilsner (“Keller” means unfiltered) that will showcase a different (single) hop each year.
Commercial description: “Visit an Old World lager brewery and the brewmaster will insist that you enjoy a “keller” beer direct from the aging tank. To a brewer this is beer at its purest: unfiltered, nuanced and gently carbonated.
Southampton Keller Pils is just such a brew. And each year we make it with a different hop variety to create a unique interpretation of the pilsner style.” Stats: ABV: 5% and IBUs: 35.
The beer should debut in mid-late May with Pumpkin Ale returning late this summer.
RateBeer shows a Pre-Prohibition Pils appearing on the tap back in 2007-08 though I haven’t confirmed whether this is the same recipe.
For what it’s worth, I can personally vouch for Biere de Mars. I can’t compare it to the old limited version but the new one is terrific and suitable for beginning craft beer drinkers as well.
(Portland, ME) – Shipyard Brewing will add a new Wheat Ale as its spring seasonal this year. Per a Shipyard Brewing rep, “This beer will be ready to hit the shelves in early May. This will be a filtered American style wheat ale with 4 to 4.2% abv.” Flavor profile is still in the works apparently so not much more to report for now . . .
Shipyard Brewer’s Brown Ale hit shelves earlier this year as a new year-round addition.
