Door County Brewing Co. Releases Pallet Jack Cruiser IPA
Monday, December 26, 2016
    Baileys Harbor, WI – Door County Brewing Co. releases Pallet Jack Cruiser, its first full-time American IPA.

    “The name Pallet Jack Cruiser spurred from the reckless entertainment anyone
    who has ever worked around a pallet jack might be familiar with,” said Alicia Daubner, Director of Marketing for Door County Brewing Co. “You can’t help but get on one and ride it, no matter how illogical it may be.”

    The brewers at Door County Brewing Co. drew inspiration from such momentary breaks during their workdays and developed a beer worthy of such a break.

    “For Pallet Jack, we used Citra and Azacca hops to create a hop forward beer that was a little lighter on the bitterness,” said Danny McMahon, Head Brewer of Door County Brewing Co. “By showcasing flavor and aroma and keeping the ABV on the lower end, I see this being a go-to beer for a lot of people.”

    Pallet Jack Cruiser will be available in Wisconsin, Minnesota, Illinois, and Indiana January 15, 2017.

Thursday, December 15, 2016
    Middleton, WI – Do you like beer? Do you like cheese? If you answered ‘Yes’ to both you are in luck! - Merkts® (a division of Bel Brands USA) now produces two unique craft beer cheese offerings: Merkts Beer Cheese with Capital Supper Club Beer and Merkts Beer Cheese with Capital Mutiny IPA Beer.

    “I grew up in Milwaukee, and my parents served Merkts cheese at every party they hosted – and they had a lot of parties!” said Scott Wiener, President of Capital Brewery. “When I got the call from the fine people at Merkts I was more than happy to co-operate on this product launch” he added.

    Both products are aged cheddar cheese spreads, and are packaged in 7 oz. containers. You can find them for sale in over 14 states throughout much of the Midwest and Great Plains. More markets will continually be added as the product launch rolls on. Find it in your area by entering your zip code and either ‘7 oz. Capital Supper Club Beer’ or ‘7 oz.
