BALTIMORE, MD — Heavy Seas Beer is pleased to announce the return of its first
seasonal beer in 2016, Deep Six. This English-style porter will be available from
January – March in all 18 states where Heavy Seas beer is distributed.
Rich, malty, and complex with a surprisingly dry finish, this robust English-style
porter is never cloying and wonderfully drinkable. A dense tan head portends the
chocolate, roasty, brownie batter flavor. Maris Otter malt, imported from the UK, imparts
a deep nuttiness accentuated by a unique English yeast strain. This cheeky yeast
generates subtle pear, apple and strawberry esters that gently contribute to its depth of
flavor.
Deep Six’s complex balance also comes from imported UK Target and Fuggle
hops, contributing earthy, herbaceous, tea-like notes. The result is a hefty brew that
walks the fine line between eminent drinkability and overwhelming flavor impact.
Style: English-style Porter
ABV: 6.8%
IBU’s: 25

BALTIMORE, MD — The “Uncharted Waters” Series by Heavy Seas Beer will soon
welcome the 2016 edition of Siren Noire. This limited release will be available from
January – February in all 18 states where Heavy Seas beer is distributed.
Siren Noire is a velvety, rich chocolate stout. Almost three pounds of Belgian
coco nibs are used per barrel. It’s aged for five weeks in bourbon barrels with vanilla
beans added. A mix of dark malts gives Siren Noire a well-rounded body that is
decidedly chocolatey—but without being extraordinarily sweet or cloying. Brewers Gold
hops contribute an earthy spiciness, with notes of black current.

ABV: 9.5%
IBU’s: 18.5
Availability: January – February
Malts: 2-Row, Crystal, Chocolate, Roasted

Heavy Seas Beer is pleased to announce that Double Cannon, originally a new
seasonal release in 2015, will transition to a year-round offering in its 2016 portfolio.
This Double IPA will be available in all 18 states where Heavy Seas beer is distributed. 
Hop aromas blast out of this flavor explosion. Massively dry-hopped, but with a
balanced malt sweetness, this irresistible force showcases the power of bringing in the
extra artillery. Hop cubed…then squared, Double Cannon is hopped to the sixth! We’ve
kept the same malt recipe proportions as Loose Cannon and employed the late
addition-, whirlpool-, hopback-, and dry-hopping processes that make Loose Cannon
such a flavorful IPA. We’ve captured the beautiful balance of Loose Cannon, but
doubled the firepower.
Style: Double IPA
ABV: 9.5%
IBU’s: 90
Availability: Year-round
Malts: 2-Row, Munich, Caramalt
Hops: Chinook, Simcoe, Cascade
Suggested Glassware: Tulip Pint
