I always love the packaging and naming that come out of Shmaltz Brewing (coming to us from Relata Brewing-Saratoga Springs, NY). Today we have the new 22oz bottle label for the 4th release from Shmaltz Brewing’s Barrel Aged series Coney Island Human Blockhead Imperial American Bock. This big 10% ABV bock is aged in Buffalo Trace bourbon barrels and the proceeds from it sale will benefit Coney Island USA. Look for a limited batch of 523 cases for this Warrior, Tettnang, Crystal, Liberty and Cascade hopped brew.
Shmaltz is not "also known as" Relata, that is merely a contract brewing arrangement.
ReplyDeleteRelata is the corporate name of the Olde Saratoga Brewing Co., which is technically a subsidiary of Mendocino http://www.mendobrew.com/aboutus/subsidiaries.php Mendocino is in turn owned by the head of the giant Indian beverage company, the UB Group, which is why the company doesn't show up as "Craft" on the Brewers Association annual lists.
