Southern Brewing celebrates International Beer Day with new brews

Press Release:

Southern Brewing & Winemaking (Southern) has brewed three beer styles from countries around the world in celebration of International Beer Day on August 1, 2014.

“Beer styles vary so widely across the world and it’s important for us to recognize how different they are while still all contributing to the craft beer culture,” stated Brew Master Brian Fenstermacher. “A great way for us to celebrate craft beer from different nations is to brew styles from different countries and make sure that we help expose those styles to our local scene. What better day for us to do that than on a holiday dedicated to just that?” The brewery chose to brew an English Mild, an Australian Pale Ale, and an Irish Stout for the event.

This is the first time that Southern has brewed and released an English Mild. Similar to Brown Ales, English Milds are refreshing session beers that are lighter and less hoppy than American Brown Ales.

Australian Pale ale is another style that Southern has not previously attempted to brew. “We thought Australian Pale Ale would be a fun beer to brew for the occasion, because it’s a style rarely seen in the country, let alone Tampa,” stated Fenstermacher. The style is defined by the focus on bittering hops without late hop additions, as well as a more malty profile than an American Pale Ale.

Fenstermacher also chose to bring back the Irish Stout recipe that was brewed for Southern’s St Patrick’s Day Celebration this year. “It was the first beer we’d put on nitro in the taproom,” stated Fenstermacher. “It went over really well, and was a customer favorite, so we are happy to bring it back for International Beer Day.”

The three international styles, brewed on July 11, will be released exclusively in the Southern taproom on Friday, August 1. All three beers will be available by the glass and in growler fills.

Sweetwater’s springtime offerings

Sweetwater, the neighborly brewery to the north, is sending some interesting new beers to Florida in the coming months.

Press Release:

SWEETWATER BREWING COMPANY SERVES UP A BEVY OF SPRINGTIME BREWS
Road Trip seasonal pilsner returns, 17th Anniversary Ale hits shelves, new Dank Tank coming and more

ATLANTA (March 2014) – It’s springtime and the livin’ is easy as SweetWater Brewery serves up a boatload of fresh brews that
pair well with warm-weathered waterways, festivals and patio partaking. From returning seasonal favorites to new recipes,
SweetWater brewers have cooked up a whole lot of headiness to satisfy palates this spring.

ROAD TRIP – Grab your mixtapes, call shotgun and fill ‘er up – Road Trip season is here! Part of SweetWater’s Catch & Release
seasonal lineup, this fiery pilsner is brewed with Vienna and pilsner malts along with Sterling and US Golding hops, ringing in
at 5.2% alcohol by volume. Unique for most pilsners, Road Trip is fermented at warmer ale temperatures giving it fuller flavor,
all capped off with an intense, spicy hop finish.

Beginning the week of March 10 and running through May, Road Trip six-packs will be koozie ready and pouring on tap at
Southeastern pit-stops. Get it while the gettin’s good, because on this Road Trip, nobody rides for free!

SPRING TACKLE BOX – Folks can also find Road Trip – alongside LowRYEder, IPA and 420 Extra Pale Ale – making a debut in
SweetWater’s Spring Tackle Box variety 12-pack starting the week of March 10.

17TH ANNIVERSARY ALE – Brewers went big on this one with a complex Saison farmhouse style ale with everything in it but the
brewhouse sink. Brewers used 2-Row, rye, wheat, Munich, 13/17 and Melanoidin malts; Galena, Saaz, Centennial and Amarillo
hops; fermented it with French Saison yeast; and then ran a secondary fermentation with Brettanomyces Bruxellensis. The
powerful strain of yeast is responsible for the brew’s big 9% ABV.

“Together the 2+ month fermentation and cellar time, malt and hop bill, along with yeast strains all work harmoniously to
produce an earthy tasting, lighter-bodied (for high-gravity) brew, perfect for some outdoors sippin’ in the spring,” said
SweetWater Head Brewer Nick Nock. The commemorative brew will make a limited-run on taps and cold boxes in 22-oz
bombers across the Southeast starting the week of March 10.

NEW DANK TANK – SweetWater’s hombres of headiness are cooking up a new bitter beauty for the Dank Tank series debuting
this April. Hopped to the gills, this brew will pack a hash-filled punch and may leave folks unable to walk the line – hence its
name—Johnny Hash.

As if this lineup weren’t enough, SweetWater is making it easier to enjoy its brews in all your favorite places this spring with a
new set of cans. The brewery is rolling out 12-packs of 12-oz 420 cans throughout Georgia to start, but will follow up with IPA
12-packs and 16-oz tallboy singles of both 420 and IPA throughout the rest of its Southeastern footprint early this summer.

ABOUT SWEETWATER BREWING COMPANY:
Living by the motto “Don’t float the mainstream,” SweetWater Brewery has been blazing its own path in craft beer throughout the Southeast since
its inception in 1997. With a brewer calling the shots, quality of beer—and life—are always most important in crafting a lineup of lip-smackin’
brews. Widely known for its flagship 420 Extra Pale Ale and recent Great American Beer Fest gold medal winner LowRYEder IPA, SweetWater also
serves up an ever-evolving Catch & Release seasonal lineup of brews and an off-beat, one-off Dank Tank series. SweetWater invites folks to join
