New Belgium is Releasing New Beers!
Attention all New Belgium fans! This Colorado favorite is set to release TWO new beers: a beer blend and an addition to the Voodoo Ranger special series. Needless to say, we’re really excited to get our hands on them.
The 2017 blend of Transatlantique Kriek is now available.
It is the first year that Transatlantique Kriek is 100% wood-aged. This sour is a mix of 50% New Belgium Foeder-aged Golden Sour and 50% Authentic Kriek Lambic from Brewery Oud Beersel in Belgium.
“This year’s beer is particularly iconic because it’s 100% wood aged,” said Andrew Emerton, New Belgium Specialty Brand Manager. “Because of our process with this beer, we actually had the incredible honor of having Transatlantique Kriek at this year’s Toer de Geuze in Belgium, the premier sour beer event in the world.”
“We showcased our beer alongside 12 other authentic lambic producers,” added Lauren Limbach, New Belgium’s Wood Cellar Director & Blender. “It was an incredible honor and a total dream come true!”
The kriek lambic process, which makes up half of this year’s blend, takes place in a few select breweries Belgium. Luckily for New Belgium, it includes Oud Beersel, who is the company’s collaborative producer. The authentic lambic that is used is spontaneously fermented beer. It’s then soured in oak barrels. Out Beersel then goes on to mature the lamic on Polish cherries for months. The end result? The delicious kriek which is sent from Belgium to New Belgium to blend with an oak-aged sour golden.
New Belgium has a rich history of brewing sour beers and 2017 marks their 14th year of releasing Transatlantique Kriek. This year’s beer’s profile is spritzy, mouthwatering and fruity. Also, there’s hints of tartness from the cherries. The 2017 Transatlantique Kriek contains 6.5% ABV and will be available in 22 oz. bottles and on draft.
The next addition to the Voodoo Ranger line is a Passionfruit Imperial IPA.
This is the beer for you if you’re a fan of hoppier beers. Tropical aromatics and passionfruit flavors are present in the beer. Additionally, they’re backed by a strong presence of Citra and Galaxy hops. Since it is an imperial IPA, it’s both crisp and refreshing. Without a doubt, it’s going to be the perfect summer beer in the warmer weather. Passionfruit Imperial IPA contains 8% ABV and is now available in both 22 oz. bottles and on draft. However, it’s only available for a limited time. So, you better get your hands on it before it’s gone!
