Courtesy of the Shelton brothers we have details on the return of Jolly Pumpkin iO Saison and more details on Konrad:
Get your requests in by January 1. Jolly Pumpkin’s iO Saison will return again this year in bottles and kegs. This special saison is brewed with rose hips, rose petals, and hibiscus. Like all beers brewed by Jolly Pumpkin, it is aged in oak barrels. Release will be mid/late February in most markets.
Konrad: 100% Czech
In the 1990’s, scores of local Czech "pivovars" were shut down by mega international brewing corporations. Most were gone forever- dismantled or demolished. But In 2000, unemployed workers from the former Liberec Brewery in Northern Bohemia convinced investors to bring their once-proud factory back to life.
Under the new brand name Konrad (honoring a 19th century brewer ) this reborn regional takes on the big boys by producing firmly traditional and well-crafted Czech lagers, made to the historical recipes with water from its own wells, classic Zatec hops, and local barley.
Kindred spirits the Shelton Brothers are proud to offer, for the first time in the U.S., their 11º golden lager, the weightier and hoppier 14º, and the malty ESO ("Ace") Märzen, all in 50cl bottles and 30-liter kegs.
Original Ritterguts Gose
Gose is an unique German beer style, historically specific to Leipzig. The style is known for its lactic sourness and subtle saltiness. Ritterguts is a classic. Our first shipment just arrived over the weekend. We are very excited to offer the beer in 50cl bottles and 30L kegs. Gose is good for your health!
