Yazoo Brewing (Nashville) and Calfkiller (Sparta, TN) created a smoked wheat ale that hits shelves around Nashville today.

Fight the power.

Yazoo & Calfkiller’s “The Beacon” Fights Stupid Beer Taxes

It’s a pathetic situation when craft brewers have to fight to change the laws just to exist. In Tennessee, craft brewers are charged more per gallon, then wine or beers from larger, non craft breweries. That is what brings Yazoo Brewing (Nashville, TN) and Calfkiller Brewing (Sparta, TN) together. The Beacon aka A Tennessee High Tax Ale.

Brewed with smoked wheat this unique style knows no limits, but is already guaranteed to have the highest taxes in the nation. Cut the red tape, pop the cap, and enjoy this oppressively refreshing ale!

Style: Wheat Ale (Smoked)
Availability: 750 ml bottles
Arrival: TBA
