In celebration of American Craft Beer Week from Monday, May 12 through Sunday, May 18, we decided to spotlight some of the most recently added craft selections in Gleeson’s Liquors sprawling craft section. Check out what Gleeson’s has in store…
Spring Hornin’ Spring IPA
With floral, spicy aromas reminiscent of lilacs, white pepper and Bartlett pears, our new Spring Hornin’ IPA embodies the season with a clean malt profile and herbal hop flavors lasting into a dry, refreshing finish.
ABV: 6.8%
Clown Shoes Clementine
Clementine is Clown Shoes Beer’s Belgian style White Ale. Light-bodied and crisp, this is a terrific White Ale with plenty of zest! Hazy in appearance and healthily carbonated, it utilizes Chambly yeast to energetically shape its wheat malt base. Incorporated in the brewing process is Clementine, sweet orange peel, a hint of Coriander, and Summit hops.
ABV: 5.9%
Dogfish Head Positive Contact
Positive Contact is a hybrid of beer and cider brewed with Fuji apples, roasted farro, a handful of cayenne peppers and a late dose of fresh cilantro. This sweet-and-sour Belgian-ish brew is a light straw color with fruity, cider-like notes. The cayenne and alcohol give it a warming finish.
ABV: 9%
River Horse Hop-a-lot-amus
Continual hopping during boil gives this River Horse Double IPA tons of hop flavor and aroma. Pine and citrus notes are backed by a rich malt base.
ABV: 8.5%
Abita Strawberry Harvest Lager
Abita Strawberry Harvest is a lager brewed with pilsner and wheat malts and Vanguard hops. Real Louisiana strawberry juice is added after filtration resulting in a crisp lager with a sweet strawberry flavor, aroma and haze. It is wonderful with desserts or lighter fare such as salads and pastas.
ABV: 4.2%
