Black Star Beer Releases 24oz Cans
For Immediate Release
SAN FRANCISCO (March 21, 2011) – Black Star Beer, the double hopped golden lager from The Great Northern Brewing Company in Whitefish, MT, announces the first ever release of 24 ounce cans. Just in time for spring, Black Star Beer 24 ounce cans will be distributed throughout Montana, Washington, Oregon, California and Nevada primarily at leading national convenience stores.
Black Star Beer is a traditional European-style Pilsner beer made with both Bavarian Mittelfrüh and Czech Saaz hops and two row malting barley. This crisp craft lager is hopped first in the kettle and then again before finishing to create a full bodied lager flavor.
“The Black Star 24 ounce can is the ultimate single package” said Minott Wessinger, founder of Black Star Beer. “You’re getting a refreshing lager with great flavor available at stores conveniently located near you. It’s the perfect way to introduce Black Star to consumers looking to try a new beer.”
The Black Star 24 ounce can retails for $1.99. As the snow melts and springtime quickly approaches, the giant golden can is the quintessential pack item for your outdoor adventures to the mountains, lakes or beaches. “Stick one in your pack, cooler or canoe, or share them with friends at a backyard barbeque,” Minott adds.
