NEW – Boulevard Easy Sport Recreation Ale

April 26, 2019 by Allison Reps

EASY SPORT

Easy Sport

Following over a year of development, testing and tasting, we’re excited to introduce Easy Sport, a beer brewed for runners, cyclists, hikers, pickleball players, karate masters, yogis, disc golfers, ball golfers, yard mowers, jazzercisers and people who are just plain thirsty.

Easy Sport is a refreshing, super drinkable, bright ale with a hint of tangerine. Beginning with a simple, easy-drinking blonde ale recipe, we add electrolytes to an extended mash and again during the boil to create a super dry, perfectly balanced beer. At the end of fermentation, we add more electrolytes and a touch of tangerine peel resulting in a slightly tart, subtly salty, all-natural, low calorie, carb-conscious beer.

Malt
Pale malt

Hops
Columbus – 15 minutes into boil to provide balancing bitterness
Mandarina Bavaria – during whirlpooling to impart a kiss of tangerine/citrus flavor and aroma

Yeast
Scottish ale

Supplements
Potassium – maintains hydration and assists in recovery
Magnesium – optimizes brain, muscle and nerve function and enables faster recovery
Sea Salt – provides minerals to improve hydration, balances blood sugar & pressure

Flavor Profile
Aroma – Citrus, honey-like malt
Malt – Airy, subtle sweetness
Hops – Supporting balance
Balance – Refreshing tartness
Body – Light, crisp

Characteristics
Alcohol by Volume – 4.1%
IBUs – 9
Color – 10 EBC
Carbs – 4.5g
Calories – 99

Pairings
Goo packs, jersey pocket bananas, granola bars, gummy bears, burpees, a wicked runner’s high

Easy Sport debuts starting in the Greater Kansas City Area starting on Monday, April 1st and will be distributed nationwide, year-round exclusively in six-packs of 12oz cans. Please note that we do not have access to our distributors’ delivery schedules and will be unable to confirm when Easy Sport is available near you

March 29, 2019 by Allison Reps

Cigar City now available at Schott Distributing!

About Cigar City Brewing

“In a state known for theme parks, Cigar City Brewing has become a major attraction for those who appreciate and seek out excellent beer. It opened with a flourish and spread its reach quickly, appealing to both hardened beer geeks and brew novices with eyebrow-raising flavors and commitment to quality. Capitalizing on the Latin culture and tobacco-manufacturing history of Tampa Bay, Cigar City highlights those strengths on its labels and in its beer names and recipes. Many of the beers it produces – Jai Alai IPA, Improv Oatmeal Rye India-Style Brown Ale, Cubano-Style Espresso Brown Ale – reflect the sensibilities and ingredients of Florida. One of Cigar City Brewing’s most sought after beers is a special release called Hunahpu’s Imperial Stout. The 11 percent ale is aged on cacao nibs, Madagascar vanilla beans, ancho chiles, pasilla chiles, and cinnamon.”
– John Holl, The American Craft Beer Cookbook

At Cigar City Brewing we make beer we like to drink and toast those who choose to drink with us. Behind all our beer is the philosophy that quality is achieved by giving first rate ingredients to first rate people in a space where they are free to pursue their passion. We acknowledge that what we do at Cigar City Brewing isn’t for everyone, but we welcome all.

Anheuser-Busch Invests $250,000 in Closed Loop Fund to Improve Glass Recycling

November 16, 2018 by Allison Reps

Nation’s Leading Brewer Announces Key Initiative toward Packaging Sustainability Goal

ST. LOUIS, MO – November 15, 2018 – Anheuser-Busch today announced a $250,000 investment in Closed Loop Fund projects to improve glass recycling capabilities in Texas communities. The first of these projects will be announced in early 2019 and will help drive progress towards the brewer’s ambitious 2025 Sustainability Goals, announced last spring.

The Closed Loop Fund is a social impact investment fund that supports comprehensive recycling programs across the country with the aim of accelerating the development of more circular supply chains.

“We have a long history of finding innovative ways to reduce our environmental footprint and through this partnership look forward to continuing that tradition in our local Texas communities,” said Angie Slaughter, Vice President of Sustainability at Anheuser-Busch. “Together with our Houston and Karbach breweries and Longhorn Glass, we are thrilled to be working with the Closed Loop Fund in Texas to further our 2025 Sustainability Goals as we strive to achieve our dream of building a better world.”

Investing in the Closed Loop Fund projects will enable Anheuser-Busch to increase the percentage of recycled glass used at its Longhorn production facility as part of its commitment to using 100% majority recycled or returnable packaging by 2025.

“At Closed Loop Fund, we are exploring new regional models to add value and improve the economics for material streams like fiber, plastics, and glass,” said Ellen Martin, Vice President of Impact at Closed Loop Fund. “In a single stream environment, significant investment is needed to ensure glass maintains its value.”
