COMING SOON: Brooklyn “Main Engine Start”

This is exciting to find in your inbox this AM.  A new beer from Brooklyn Brewing.  “Main Engine Start”.    This beer will be Trappist/Abbey style, with Belgian yeast strains etc.  The name references the first beer brewed in the new brewhouse.  Main engine is a part of Brooklyn’s “Brewmasters Reserve” series and will be draft only.

We just gained a new brewery here in Brooklyn. A few months ago, we busted through the brewhouse wall into another building and expanded our fermentation cellars. Now we’ve just finished installing a big shiny new set of German brewhouse equipment. Over the coming years, we’re going to brew you a lot of fun new beers on this baby.
