Weyerbacher Release Schedule

What makes an amazing beer? Is it the taste? Some would think that's the case. Some might argue it's the ingredients that make a quality beer. Sorry beer people, that's not it either. Give up? Its the label! Just joking, but only a little. Much like a book, we can't judge a beer by its cover but, in my opinion, a cool label certainly says a lot about a beer and the people who are brewing it. Where I am going with this post? Let me tell you. Weyerbacher Brewing Company makes tasty, complex beers that are brewed with the finest ingredients while designing some of the most creative labels in the industry. If you don't believe me, pick up their new seasonal that is being shipped this week. Weyerbacher's Fireside Ale might taste a little familiar as it was released in September as Charlie, an experimental beer that got rave reviews. The response to Charlie was so positive that Weyerbacher renamed the brew and will add it as a seasonal every year. Fireside is a dark ale at 7.5%abv, brewed with 10% smoked malt to give it a hint of smokiness and complexity. Sounds like the perfect winter beer to enjoy on a cold night.

Weyerbacher's release schedule for the rest of the year is as follows:

March: Slam Dunkel

April: Blanche

May: Muse & Riserva

June: Belgian Pale Ale (new)

July: Fourteen

August: AutumnFest & Imperial Pumpkin Ale

September: Harvest Ale (wet hopped)

October: Winter Ale

November: QUAD (pictured above)

December: To be announced at a later date

One last thing, despite increasing operating costs, Weyerbacher is not raising their prices in 2009 due to your loyalty and continued support. Cheers to that!
