Just a few updates from Shmaltz / He’Brew on some upcoming beer releases for Barrel-Aged Funky Jewbelation, the Terrapin/Shmaltz Reunion 2012 (A Beer for Hope) and Jewbelation Sweet 16:
Barrel-Aged Funky Jewbelation® (March – April 2012):
The sixth member in the Limited Engagement Barrel-Aged series, Funky Jewbelation® will feature a blend of six Shmaltz beers aged in bourbon and rye whisky barrels for 2 to 14 months depending on the style, and will dance in at about 9.5% alc.
Reunion: A Beer for Hope '12® (July – August 2012)
Teaming up as a brewing partner with Terrapin Beer Company and Alan Shapiro of SBS Imports, Shmaltz will participate for the second year in creating Reunion Ale ’12: A Beer for Hope®. Now in its sixth year of production, Reunion® is brewed annually in memory of Virginia MacLean, a dear friend of Alan Shapiro (founder of SBS Imports) and Pete Slosberg’s (creator of Pete’s Wicked Ale™) and a dedicated cancer research supporter who lost her own battle with Multiple Myeloma in 2007. It was her wish to raise funds and awareness on behalf of the Institute for Myeloma & Bone Cancer Research, and a portion of the proceeds from Reunion Ale '12® is donated directly to the IMBCR. The Reunion project has raised more than $130,000 for the IMBCR through bottle and draft sales of Reunion®, retailer fundraising events, and private donations.
Jewbelation Sweet 16® (November 2012 – January 2013)
Brewed with 16 malts, 16 hops, and soaring to 16% alc, Jewbelation Sweet 16® marks Shmaltz's sassiest anniversary ale to date. Since its inception in 2004, Shmaltz’s Jewbelation® series has been touted by critics receiving top accolades including multiple Gold Medals from the World Beer Championships and “5 Stars” from Celebrator Beer News. Imbibe Magazine named Jewbelation 14® one of the "Top 50 Beers in the World." Jewbelation 14® even won “Best Christmas Beer” in a blind holiday tasting from Northern California’s, SF Weekly.
