About Amber:
The original Woodchuck. People liked it so much we made four more styles. The Amber is sweet (but not too sweet) with a nice golden color and crisp finish.*
White Birch Brewing (Hooksett, NH) just launched a new beer & new series last evening. The Small Batch Series will feature creative brews based on the vision of the brewmasters. First up: Ben’s Sour Rye Wine Ale.
The first in our Small Batch Ale series was brewed by our Brewery Assistant Benjamin Martin. Ben’s Sour Rye Wine Ale is a copper colored, full bodied barley with a tart aroma. Flavors of fig and a little barnyard are complimented by a spicy rye bite. Combining tart, spicy and sweet, this wild rye wine is a treat to the adventurous palate.

Breckenridge Brewery grows again. As of last week, the brewery added 4 more 300-barrel fermenters. (Each fermenter holds 9,300 gallons of beer, for a total of 37, 200 gallons at a time.) Total annual capacity is now 75,000 barrels (or 2.3 million gallons of beer).
Denver, CO — April 19, 2012 – Breckenridge Brewery of Colorado added four more 300-barrel fermenters last week, bringing it’s total capacity to 75,000 barrels. This expansion follows the addition of two 300-barrel tanks and a 200-barrel Brite tank in January. With a new kegging line to come this summer, the brewery expects record growth this year as the craft beer industry continues to boom.
Breckenridge Brewery produced 41,000 barrels out of its Denver brewery last year, posting growth of 30% over 2010. The improvements to the brewery this year bring with them ten new positions in sales and production. The brewery now distributes into 33 states. Half of the new positions are in sales, to maintain the brewery’s organic growth in Colorado and its traditional markets while also supporting its 2011 expansion into the northeast.
