On Monday, August 21, pioneering craft brewery Saint Benjamin Brewing Company will can River City, their authentic German-style Oktoberfest lager. The new canned beer will join their flagship Pilsner Prosim, which earned the Philadelphia Inquirer’s audience-choice award for “Best Flagship Beer” in Craig LaBan’s eighth-annual Brewvitational (click for details) earlier this year.
On Wednesday, June 21 conservation-minded local craft brewers Saint Benjamin Brewing Company will celebrate the fifth year of the Philadelphia Water’s Green City, Clean Waters program with the debut of Baxter’s Best, a dark ESB crafted from Philadelphia’s own tap water.
On Thursday, December 31, pioneering nanobrewery Saint Benjamin Brewing Company will debut Bonne Année, the second-annual batch of what is sure to become a time-honored annual tradition of New Year’s Eve beers. Bonne Année will be released each New Year’s Eve in kegs, with a portion of each year’s brew reserved and bottle-conditioned for 365 days, to be released the following year along with the new batch, giving beer lovers a festive alternative to champagne and a memorable way to honor the transition from one year to the next. Brewer Christina Burris hopes that fans will “ring out the old with the old and ring in the new with the new” each year.
