Memorial Day is just around the corner and American craft brewers are celebrating summer’s arrival with a fun roster of beers you’re gonna want to have around.
Get Dusted (Turlock, CA) – Dust Bowl Brewing has a new addition to their Big Beer Series, that’s making its way to California retailers that can also be enjoyed at its freshest, at the brewery’s taprooms in Turlock, Livermore, Monterey, and Elk Grove. Crafted for the adventurous beer lover, Dust Bowl Fruit Fist is a massive 10.4% ABV Imperial IPA that hits the palate with a juicy burst that can only be described as a “fist full of mangos.”
“Fruit Fist is big, unapologetic, and bursting with tropical intensity,” says Brett Tate, Founder of Dust Bowl Brewing Co. “It’s a tropical knockout.”
“We used a lot of Galaxy and Nectaron hops to bring out the tropical fruit character Brewmaster Don Oliver added.” The mango adds a subtle sweetness, but there is no mistaking it, this is still an Imperial IPA with the hop punch you would expect.”
Wicked Ways (Asheville, NC) – One of our favorite breweries, Wicked Weed Brewing is very much on the comeback trail after the devastating floods that brought Ashville to its knees last October. And although the brewery is renowned for its Sour Beer production, they also brew a terrific Witbier that’s an ACB staple.
Crafted with our unique blend of Curaçao orange peel and coriander, Wicked Weed Twist is a light-bodied 5.2% ABV Belgian Style White Ale with fresh notes of oranges, flora, pomme and peppery spice that give way to a crispy dry finish.
Designated Drinking (Sausalito, CA) – With more craft breweries than ever before, brewing serious non-alcoholic beer, ACB has expanded our coverage to include new NA beers that matter. And Oskar Blues Brewery has stepped into the arena, with a very convincing lager.
Billed by the brewery as the “realest fake beer ever,” Designated Dale’s NA Pils is a crisp and floral buzz-free Pilsner made with the highest standards and the lowest ABV.
