(Portsmouth, NH) – An announcement was posted on the Portsmouth Brewery website yesterday that the next batch of the wildly popular Portsmouth Kate the Great will be released on Monday, February 9, 2009. The beer sold out in a couple hours at the most recent release in late June. The video above has been uploaded by someone at the brewery on a ‘Portsbrew’ youtube account. Hopefully, we see some more videos from this little brewpub.
Portsmouth Imperial IPA and Oatmeal Stout are both on tap right now and are A-rated beers at Beer Advocate. [ed: They are both phenomenal beers though do not receive the same level of recognition as Kate the Great.]
Yankee Brew News also has a little blurb about this. It says that they’ll be releasing it again sometime between now and the announced date, but doing it silently to avoid all the fanfare and craziness of the announced release.
