Boulevard Nutcracker, Hitachino Nest 3-Days, Affligem & PBR 3.2% ABW

Here are the final four new (and interesting) labels released today:

Boulevard Extra Fresh Hopped Nutcracker Ale (7.2% ABV keg—and interesting that this sample label carries a “best by” date for a Fresh Hop beer over a year from today.)

Hitachino Nest 3-Days (8% ABV—This beer was being brewed during the 11 March 2011 earthquake in Japan. Without electricity the mashing period was extended to 3-days increasing the strength of this beer—8000 bottles only)

Affligem Triple (9% ABV 750ml—updated packaging for this 3-time World Beer Cup winning Triple)

Pabst Blue Ribbon (PBR)—Perhaps I’m still amazed that the MillerCoors owned PBR has made such a hipster comeback from how I remember it. Look for this 3.2% ABW (about 4% ABV) classic label to run on 12oz, 16oz, 22oz, 24oz, 32oz and 40oz bottles in selected states

Pabst and its other brands are owned by the Metropolous family, the purchase was made in 2010 for $250 million from a non-profit that held the brand previously. However Miller is the only brewery that does and is licensed to brew PBR.
