This unique, small batch brewed in collaboration with Muse Winery, blends Canadian Pilsner malt, aromatic Belgian yeast, and Island grown ortega grape juice to create a crisp, sparking complex ale. Can’t decide on whether to try a cool, crisp glass of wine or a thirst quenching, effervescent light beer? Ortega Blonde Ale might be just the ticket for a revolutionary new taste experience
The Ortega will be arriving in select liquor stores mid November.
