WILK Friday BeerBuzz–10 Dec 2010 (Stegmaier Winter Warmer)

Today we welcomed Mike Simmons, brewing supervisor for Lion Brewery to help us sample their Stegmaier Winter Warmer.  Winter Warmer is their re-labeled Holiday Warmer winter seasonal.  Mike tells me the recipe is mostly unchanged, but the packaging was redone to extend the season of this beer beyond the holidays.  I can tell you from personal experience that this beer is great right out of the box, but it gets even better as you age it.  I personally have some 2009 Steg Holiday Warmer and it tastes great.  It was also a lot of fun to have Shadoe Steel join us for the Friday BeerBuzz; so be sure to tune into Saturday Night Live at the Oldies on WILK every Saturday night with Shadoe.

Lion Brewery is always fun to have in the studio with us, especially because of the sheer size of the brewery and the multiple brews they now contract brew.  Add to this the new canning line that’s up and running, and there are some really exciting things coming out of Lion Brewery.

AND you heard it here FIRST.  Lion Brewery will be brewing some one-off beers to bridge the gaps between their seasonal Stegmaier offerings so Stay Tuned!!!  You’ll find the details here First!
Be sure to TRY some Winter Warmer, BUY some Winter Warmer and even AGE some Winter Warmer for yourself! 
Thanks
to  Mike, Shadoe, John, Nancy, Joe & Bosco for yet another fun Friday.
