SweetWater Waterkeeper Hefeweizen & Take Two Pils Coming To Spring Tackle Box

From SweetWater:

ATLANTA (May 2014) – As temperatures in the South heat up, SweetWater Brewing Company is reeling in the perfect summer brews to

quaff down by the pool, lake, grill or couch. Kicking off the season, SweetWater serves up its returning Catch & Release seasonal,

Waterkeeper Hefeweizen, early this June. Casting lines back out, SweetWater hooked a keeper with Take Two Pils, a more traditional

Pilsner-style brew which will join its year-round lineup later in June.

SPRING TACKLE BOX - Beginning the first week of June, SweetWater’s summer Tackle Box variety pack will start making coolers a

little more cool throughout the Southeast with three bottles of each 420 Extra Pale Ale, IPA, Waterkeeper Hefeweizen and Take Two

Pils.

WATERKEEPER HEFEWEIZEN - Perfect for floating the Hooch or just grillin’ in the backyard, Waterkeeper Hefeweizen is a go-to

summer favorite. Golden in color and brewed with wheat and two-row barley malt, it’s capped with Sterling and Hallertau hops.

Waterkeeper Hefeweizen rings in at a cool 5.7 percent ABV, delivering banana and clove notes from the Bavarian Hefeweizen yeast

and finishing with a hint of lemon. The unfiltered wheat ale will roll out in six-packs, on draft taps and in summer Tackle Box variety

packs across the Southeast the first week in June.

SweetWater debuted Waterkeeper® Hefeweizen as an extension of its Save Our Water campaign in 2011, further raising awareness

and proceeds for Waterkeeper® Alliance members throughout the brewery’s Southeastern footprint. Clean water is vital to the

creation of tasty brews as beer is 90 percent water drawn from local sources. Since the inception of the program nearly nine years

ago, SweetWater has helped raise more than $700,000 for the cause.

TAKE TWO PILS - Take Two Pils is a step into an alternate reality for SweetWater, a head-first dive down the rabbit hole into the

Wonderland world of lagers. The golden blond German-style pilsner is brewed with a Mad Hatter’s dose of spicy floral hops. It’s

beautifully Bohemian in body, earthy in soul, and moving low. Go ask Alice, we think she’ll know.

Brewed with the traditional spicy pilsner "Noble Hop" Saaz, SweetWater added a twist throwing in Styrian Golding hops, delivering

earthy, spicy aromas and flavors, as well as American Mt. Hood hops to add clean, flowery notes. Kicking up the adventure, brewers

then dry hopped the beer with all three hop varieties for SweetWater’s signature style.

With a malt bill of Pilsner, Munich and Carapils, Take Two Pils is left with a crisp, clean body fit for a queen. Although the Czech

Pilsner yeast strain used is centuries old, it wasn’t too late for its brewhouse date. At 5.5 percent ABV, the larger than life libation will

wander on to draft taps, six-packs and the summer Tackle Box variety packs in June.
