(Mukilteo, WA) – Diamond Knot Craft Brewing is pleased to announce the release of Blonde Ale in bottles, to the marketplace this summer. Starting in April 2012, this summer seasonal beer will be available in 22-oz bottles at retailers in throughout the Pacific Northwest and nationally through Total Wine & More.
“We are thrilled to be releasing our Blonde Ale again this summer. We have a huge potential fan base that is not able to experience our beers on draft, so bottling our most popular beers allows us to reach out to them. Additionally, this style serves as a very approachable ‘gateway beer’ of sorts; the perfect way to introduce domestic beer drinkers to craft beers.” said Brewmaster Pat Ringe.
The Blonde Ale is based on a pre-Prohibition lager recipe and is a perfect summer session beer. It is a clean, crisp beer that you can enjoy, no matter your summer plans; an excellent ale that compliments all occasions.
