Urban South Brewery Releases Three New Collaborative Beers as Part of Anniversary Celebration

For the past four weeks, Urban South Brewery has been celebrating its fifth anniversary with weekly collaborative beer releases from breweries around the world. Between April 2 and May 7, New Orleans’ largest craft brewery will have released fifteen new beers for fans to enjoy. This week, the brewery has three exciting new collaborations to share.

• LGDIPA – Collaboration with The Courtyard Brewery (New Orleans, LA) – A big, beautiful West Coast-style double IPA in collaboration with Urban South’s friends in the Lower Garden District. Soft waves of bitterness typical of a West Coast DIPA lead to tropical orange and juicy mango notes from the addition of Citra Pellet and Citra Incognito hops.
  8.2% ABV.

• Lizard Lounge – Collaboration with Modern Times Beer (San Diego, CA) – This hoppy Mixed-Fermentation Table Beer features Golden Promise, Spelt and Flaked Rye for a soft and complex malt base. Hopped with Centennial and Talus hops, which lend soft lime and lemon zest with touches of sweet coconut, and finished with a touch of orange peel as a nod to traditional Belgian brewing. This is a bottle-conditioned beer that will evolve over time thanks to the live brettanomyces inside of the bottle.
  3.2% ABV.

• Hop the Pond – Collaboration with Verdant Brewing Company (Penryn, England) – A balanced and refreshing West Coast IPA hopped primarily with Simcoe hops. A whirlpool addition of Mosaic Incognito, as well as Mosaic and Simcoe during the dry-hop, give off tropical fruit mixed with notes of pine and sweet floral. The sip is balanced by a touch of bitterness and hints of sweet malt.
  8.9% ABV.

This week’s collaborative beers will be available for online pre-sale starting Friday, April 30 at 6:00 p.m. CST. Pickup and in-person purchases will begin Saturday, May 1 when the Tchoupitoulas Street taproom opens at 12:00 p.m. CST.
