(Houston, TX) – The latest new beer news from Saint Arnold Brewing Co., as excerpted from a Thursday press release…

—

Saint Arnold this week released Saint Arnold Fresh Hop Ale, a special brew that will not join the brewery’s regular lineup because of the seasonality of the key ingredient. The West Coast-style India Pale Ale features three different types of hops – Centennial for bitter, along with 420 pounds of freshly harvested Citra hops that were shipped overnight to the brewery. Finally, the brewers dry hopped the beer with Amarillo hops, producing a total of 67 barrels. Saint Arnold Fresh Hop Ale will be available on tap in pubs and restaurants.

This week also marked the return of Saint Arnold Pumpkinator, which has earned a world-class rating of 96 on Beer Advocate. The official release of 22 ounce bottles of Pumpkinator attracted lines at some establishments Monday, but expect it to continue trickling into Texas, Louisiana and Colorado markets throughout the coming weeks. Saint Arnold Christmas Ale is scheduled for release next week.
