Penn Brewing Launches Over Look IPA & Cool River

(Pittsburgh, PA) — Penn Brewery is pleased to announce the launch of two new beers, Overlook IPA and Cool River Kolsch-style.

Penn’s New Beers

“Overlook IPA is the latest introduction to Penn’s expanding family of ales, joining Allegheny Pale Ale, Harvest Rye IPA, and Nut Roll Ale,” said Sandra Cindrich, Penn’s President and CEO. “Cool River is the first Kolsch-type beer made by Penn,” Cindrich added. “It’s brewed in the style of the classic Kolsch beer originating from Cologne, Germany.”

Penn Overlook IPA (Photo) — a clean, hoppy, American-style IPA with a smooth mouthfeel. It’s brewed with two-row barley malt and American hops, including Zeus and Northern Brewer varieties. It has an attractive light-copper color and a prominent aroma, with an ABV of 6%.

Overlook IPA is named for the popular Pittsburgh vantage point atop Mt. Washington, which overlooks the city and its Three Rivers. Its label design captures this quintessential image of Pittsburgh.

Cool River Kolsch-Style (Photo) is a crisp, clean beer with a subtle fruit fragrance. It’s pale golden in color and delicate in flavor, with subdued hoppiness and a 4.5% ABV. Cool River’s refreshing tang makes it an excellent summer beer. Its packaging pays homage to Pittsburgh’s Three Rivers and summertime fun on the water.

Overlook IPA and Cool River Kolsch-style will be available on draft and in 12 oz. bottles in Penn’s Gourmet Selection variety pack beginning in March and May, respectively.
