Cape May Brewing Co. in Cape May, New Jersey has announced the release of a boardwalk-style Hard Lemonade. Full details are below.

Cape May, NJ -- Cape May Brewing Company is excited to announce that their boardwalk-style Hard Lemonade will be distributed in 12-ounce cans in a newly designed can wrap starting this month. Hard Lemonade is Cape May Brewing Company’s second release in the non-beer sector of alcoholic beverages, following the release of their Hard Seltzer Variety Pack last year. 

Hard Lemonade is 5.0% ABV, and made with lemon juice, cane sugar, and alcohol for a beverage that is balanced and refreshing.

“For our packaging design, we wanted to do something special to give it a distinct look from the rest of our products while still retaining our fun, creative style,” says Cape May Brewing Company Marketing Director Alicia Grasso. “Ultimately, this is a craft hard lemonade brewed with the same care and attention to detail as our other products.”

“The focus on this product was to keep it simple and make traditional lemonade using lemon juice, water, sugar and just add alcohol from there,” says Chief Brewing Officer Brandon Greenwood. “After that, all we had to do is treat this product with care to complement and highlight each of these vibrant flavors.”

Famed metal band Pantera has released a beer called Vulgar Display of Lager (an enjoyable riff on their notable album A Vulgar Display of Power). This beer marks the newest collaboration between KnuckleBonz and Great South Bay Brewery. Full details are below.

The Pantera® Vulgar Display of Lager (5.9%) is brewed in accordance with the oldest regulation related to food or drink in the world, The German Purity Law of 1516: in order to call your product beer, its production must be limited to only 4 simple ingredients hops, barley, water, and yeast.  By selecting nothing but the finest of these ingredients coupled with traditional methods, the result is quite a “Vulgar Display of Lager” with a complex flavor profile that is cold fermented for the crisp and refreshing experience you'd expect from a world class German Lager.

Flying Dog Brewery in Frederick, Maryland has announced a new, offensively delicious IPA called 451 Juicy IPA to remind us all that banning books is dumb. Full details are below.

Frederick, Md. – The brewery known for high ABV beers and anti-censorship fights is releasing a new IPA that combines the two – Flying Dog Brewery’s 451 Juicy IPA, available now. This delicious 11% ABV beer not only embodies Flying Dog’s expertise in crafting bold and easy to drink IPAs, but also provides a platform to share the brewery’s passion for freedom of expression by paying homage to the novel Fahrenheit 451 through the beer’s name and artwork.

Despite being an 11% ABV IPA, 451 is an incredibly approachable and drinkable beer. Over 95% of the hops in 451 are added late in the process, this dry hopping amps up the aroma and flavor while keeping the beer’s bitterness low, letting 451’s juicy fruit flavors dominate. This medium bodied imperial stays soft on the palette with its alcohol content being nearly unnoticeable in the flavor.
