Boulevard Nutcracker, Hitachino Nest 3-Days, Affligem & PBR 3.2% ABW

Here are the final four new (and interesting) labels released today:

Boulevard Extra Fresh Hopped Nutcracker Ale (7.2% ABV keg—and interesting that this sample label carries a “best by” date for a Fresh Hop beer over a year from today.)

Hitachino Nest 3-Days (8% ABV—This beer was being brewed during the 11 March 2011 earthquake in Japan.  Without electricity the mashing period was extended to 3-days increasing the strength of this beer—8000 bottles only)

Affligem Triple (9% ABV 750ml—updated packaging for this 3-time World Beer Cup winning Triple)

Pabst Blue Ribbon (PBR)—Perhaps I’m still amazed that the MillerCoors owned PBR has made such a hipster comeback from how I remember it.  Look for this 3.2% ABW (about 4% ABV) classic label to run on 12oz, 16oz, 22oz, 24oz, 32oz and 40oz bottles in selected states
