Press Release: 

(Pittsburgh, PA) – Penn Brewery proudly announces the launch of two new beers, Penn Ginger Beer and Penn Brick Biergarten IPA.

Penn Ginger Beer is tailor-made for summertime. It gets its flavor from freshly grated ginger root that’s added to the boil kettle, giving the beer a subtle aroma and just a gentle kick of ginger flavor that makes it lightly refreshing yet pleasantly spicy. With 4.5% ABV and 10 IBUs, Penn Ginger is brewed with two-row Euro Pilsner malt and a small amount of Hallertau Perle hops. The beer begins shipping in 24-pack cases, six-packs, and draft beginning the first week in May.

Penn Brick Biergarten IPA will make for happy “hop heads.” Brick Biergarten is an American IPA made with several different malts including two-row, caramel, and Maris Otter, along with Falconer’s Flight 7 C’s blend of seven different hops. It’s a robust beer, with 7% ABV and 70 IBUs. The “Brick Biergarten” name and label pay homage to the original old cobblestone biergarten at Penn Brewery’s 150 year-old German brewery building. Brick Biergarten will be available in 24-pack cases, six-packs, and draft beginning the first week in May.

Penn will highlight these two new beers at its eighteenth annual Pennsylvania Microbrewers’ Fest on June 7.
