Good news from Summit…Summit Summer Ale & Saga IPA coming Next Week: (St. Paul, MN) – Summit Brewing Company announces the release of two new beers: Summer Ale, a new summer seasonal, and Sága IPA, offered year-round. Both beers will be released in draught and bottles the week of May 14.
“We’re excited to launch two new beers with distinct personalities to kick off summer,” said Mark Stutrud, founder of Summit Brewing Company. “We’ve put a lot of passion into these brews – they’re a great addition to our beer line-up.”
Summer Ale will replace Summit’s Hefe Weizen and is a new take on a classic German Kölsch: a crisp, refreshing brew offering elegant fruity and flora aromas and toasted malt qualities. Keeping in line with the refreshing feel, the image on the beer’s packaging by a local photographer is of Minnehaha Falls, a beautiful urban waterfall that is just minutes from the brewery.
Sága IPA is named after Sága, the Norse Goddess of Poetry who was the God Odin’s drinking companion. Sága is an assertive brew with a pronounced hop flavor and tropical fruit aromas such as kiwi, passion fruit, apricot and gooseberry. The beer gets some of its robust aroma from the use of Rakau hops from New Zealand – a much sought-after hop-growing region amongst craft brewers.
