Press Release: Don’t be a turkey by forgetting to bring good beer to your Thanksgiving meal. Due South Brewing Company will be hosting a series of events during Thanksgiving week, including beer releases and Black Friday specials, to help you stay cool, calm, and collected during this sometimes hectic holiday.

First, the brewery is offering up a selection of special release beers that customers will be able to take home (through growlers or crowlers) for their holiday dinner starting on Tuesday November 22: Saigon Blonde, a blonde ale brewed with cucumber, lime and jalapeno; Cranberry What the Hef?, a hefeweizen with cranberries added; and Pumpkin Latte, which takes the Isle of MaGourdo pumpkin ale, and adds fresh roasted coffee.

Finally, November 25 will be Due South Brewing’s 5th Annual Black Friday event. In addition to the beers already on tap, the brewery will feature limited release beers tapped throughout the day. Many of these beers are only available at the brewery and some are so limited that there is only one keg, so they won’t last long!

Due South Brewing celebrates November with new beers

Due South Brewing of Boynton Beach will mark November with the release of several beers into distribution.

Press Release: November sees the release of a couple of sought-after beers for Due South. First, the release of Maple Orange Imperial Caramel Cream Ale, our winter seasonal for 2016-2017. It begins with a base of Imperial Caramel Cream Ale with which we add orange and maple. The beer will be available on draft and in 12 ounce cans in both our taproom and in distribution.

Next, we are putting the finishing touches on Mexican Standoff, an incredibly complex porter filled with chocolate, cinnamon, vanilla bean, and chili peppers. It’s rich, spiced, and full of tingly heat. We made a special limited batch of this highly requested beer, so look for this one to be available in our taproom and in crowlers to-go.

In addition, we have a new beer that will soon see wide distribution: Citrafied, a Citra hop heavy American pale ale that sits at 5.1% ABV. It’s light, refreshing, and displays some amazing tropical fruit aromas. We are bringing this one out in stages, with a taproom draft release today, followed by distribution in both kegs and 12 ounce cans by the end of November.

Finally, November is Caramel Cream Month, where we will be highlighting our classic and best-selling beer. If you haven’t tried a Caramel Cream Ale lately, you should. We will be having special tasting events at select retailers throughout the month, check for details.

Due South Brewing brewer awarded John Doble Scholarship

Press Release: Joel Kodner, from Due South Brewing Co. in Boynton Beach, was awarded the John G Doble III Memorial Scholarship from the Florida Brewers Guild on March 5, 2016. Joel was the only recipient selected from a pool of qualified candidates from across the state who applied for this scholarship to attend the World Brewing Academy Concise Course in Brewing Technology at the Seibel Institute of Technology in Illinois. This is an annual scholarship awarded to one person each year.

Joel’s career at Due South began on its opening day in 2012 as a part time bartender with a full time accounting job elsewhere. Not long after, driven by his passion for the brewery business, he joined the brewing operations full time. His hard work and determination in the craft beer industry has earned him respect amongst his peers and advanced his position at Due South. He is now a brewer and the Brewhouse Manager at Due South, which produces approximately 15,000 gallons of beer each month to supply over 1,000 Florida retailers with locally made craft beer.

“Joel has been an asset at Due South since the day he arrived,” said Mike Halker, founder and president of Due South. “His work ethic alone attracted our attention. The passion he has for the industry is the icing on the cake. We’re extremely proud to have him running the brewhouse here at Due South.”

Joel can be seen in action most weekdays (the tap room is closed Mondays) slinging grain and hops in the brewhouse at Due South.

Due South Brewing to nearly double in size

Press Release: Due South Brewing Co. has announced an expansion of their current facility, annexing 12,000 additional square feet of the adjacent bay. Combined, Due South will total over 27,000 square feet.

Open to the public since 2012, Due South has always had a production focus. The current tap room continues to shrink as the need for more brewing space grows. This expansion will allow for growth in both areas.

“We knew we would need more space, it just wasn’t available” states Mike Halker, founder and president of Due South. “Finally the opportunity presented itself and we were able to acquire the bay next to us. We’re certainly excited about continuing our relationship with the folks in Boynton and eventually expanding our brewing operations enough that we can supply all of Florida. We’ve got some thirsty friends on the west coast we haven’t been able to take care of yet.”

The new space will be used for an indoor beer garden, a large air conditioned tap room, a dedicated area for barrel aging and additional offices. There will also be a separate area for expansion of the new ‘Due South Sour Project’.

The architects are currently working on the layout and the new facility is expected to be open in early fall.
