New Belgium Brewing Presents Collaborative New Lips of Faith Selections: "Kick" and "Clutch"
Partnerships With a Rock Band and Elysian Brewing Result in Artisanal Beers
(firmenpresse) - FT. COLLINS, CO -- (Marketwire) -- 07/25/11 -- New Belgium Brewing () today announced two new releases in its Lips of Faith series, "Kick" and "Clutch." Both are collaboration beers suitably named in honor of their collaborative counterparts and each offers something fine and rare in the Lips of Faith tradition. Lips of Faith beers are New Belgium's more esoteric creations, delivering palate-elevating brews that are only available for a limited time.
New Belgium's Founder and CEO, Kim Jordan, and Seattle-based Elysian Brewing Founder and Head Brewer, Dick Cantwell, are in cahoots again with , a ruby-hued, slightly sour ale. The rich and tart pumpkin cranberry ale is blended with wood-aged beer to deliver a uniquely complex harvest season sour. Kick's ABV is 8.5%. Elysian and New Belgium have a history of celebrated creations with past "collabeerations," including eight beers in the Trip Series.
is the result of synchronicity with the Maryland-based hard rock band with the same name. The sour stout has a pronounced bass line of dark chocolate, coffee and black malts that bridge the sourness of the dark wood ale for a fluid riff. Clutch's ABV is 9%.
"Clutch is one of my favorite bands and this collaboration derives from the perfect storm of random happenings," said New Belgium brewer Eric Salazar. "The band made a stop in Ft. Collins to tour our brewery, but we were closed. That day, I happened to run into them at a Ft. Collins restaurant and we started talking. I offered them a tour and the next thing you know, we've produced a soulful beer together."
Kick and Clutch are available August through October. Pricing varies by market.
