Dear St. Arnold's Army: Look! A new format to our newsletter! Wow! We make these kind of changes every 16 years. And now onto the news.
Announcing our Movable Yeast series You love beer. You know about malt and hops. And of course water is the biggest ingredient. But what about this yeast? First of all, without yeast, there would be no alcohol, and
thus no beer (or wine, whiskey or atrocities like Jagermeister). But yeast does more than eat sugar and
turn it into alcohol and CO2. It
also produces esters and other compounds that create a significant part of the
flavor profile in the beer. With the Movable Yeast series, we will take some of our
regular beers and pitch a batch with a different yeast from what we normally
use. The first release will be
Fancy Lawnmower Beer wort pitched with Bavarian hefeweizen yeast. We're calling this version
Weedwacker. It will be released
draft only and we are hoping that bars and restaurants will serve the Lawnmower
and Weedwacker side by side so you can see the difference. The release date for this is August 16. You can also read Ronnie Crocker's nice article in the
Houston Chronicle on this series: http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/ent/7094956.html
