From Rahr & Sons & Lakewood:
DALLAS/FT. WORTH – Two of North Texas’s favorite breweries, Rahr & Sons Brewing Company of Fort Worth and Lakewood Brewing Company of Garland, have joined together again to create a special, limited edition beer that combines their unique styles and reflects their joint dedication to local craft brewing.
Coming after their successful partnership last year, the breweries have again created DFW: A Collaboration of Two Breweries. This year’s all-new version is a rum oak-aged cherry Baltic Porter with an ABV of 9.5 percent timed to celebrate North Texas Beer Week (November 6 – November 15). DFW will be available on draft at area taps and will be sold at local retailers in 22 oz. bottles beginning the week of November 2.
“We’re excited to collaborate again with our friends at Lakewood on such a unique beer,” said Fritz Rahr, Co-Founder and CEO of Rahr & Sons. “Our special partnership represents the impressive growth of the North Texas craft brewing community in recent years.”
Last year’s popular, sold-out joint effort between the two brewers marked the first time two Texas production breweries collaborated on a beer. This year’s brew makes it a North Texas tradition.
Collaboration beers, although new to North Texas, are popular elsewhere in the United States and around the world. DFW will be brewed at Lakewood’s facility in Garland this year, while last year’s version was brewed at Rahr & Sons in Fort Worth.
