What Blackhorse Is Brewing This Season
Check out a few of our favorites (and something new!) that will be on tap this summer:
Verano (Mexican Lager)
Verano, our latest brew, is a must-try seasonal beer this summer. This Mexican lager is a refreshing beer with vibrant flavors that delivers a blend of citrus notes balanced with a subtle hint of floral hops. This crisp and clean golden-hued lager embodies the carefree spirit of summer with every sip.
Side Hustle Sour
Our Side Hustle Sour is an ode to everyone chasing their dreams and carving out time for their true passions. Characterized by fruity cranberry, grape, and citrus notes, this easy-drinking blackcurrant sour is the perfect companion for any creative pursuit. Our thirst-quenching sour is the perfect way to say cheers to what you love!
Blackhorse Blonde Ale
Sometimes, simple is better. Light, crisp, and refreshing with a soft malt character and delicate hop aroma, our Blackhorse Blonde Ale is brewed for any occasion. This craft beer is perfect for accompanying your summertime BBQs or an afternoon of summertime sipping with friends and loved ones.
Stargazer
The Stargazer Hazy IPA by Blackhorse is the best brew to accompany you on your outdoor adventures underneath the luminous stars. While tilting and sipping this brew toward the night sky, take in the sights and the out-of-this-world flavors of the Galaxy and Simcoe hops, which give this brew a heavy orange-citrus and hop aroma while maintaining a low bitterness.
Bad Apple Cider
Looking for something to sweeten up your summer season? Blackhorse’s Bad Apple Cider is a crisp, golden-colored, highly effervescent cider that’s not too sweet or tart—the “just right” of ciders with a bite. Ciders are perfect for cooling down in the summer heat and relaxing with a tasty craft brew to sip on.
Vanilla Cream Ale
Our Vanilla Cream Ale is a slightly sweet drinkable treat that combines fresh vanilla bean flavors with a smooth cream soda texture for a uniquely refreshing craft brew experience. This delicious ale is a fan favorite, making it a great go-to no matter what season it is.
