Due to a voracious appetite for keeping its consumers on their toes, Madison, Wisconsin’s Ale Asylum has not one, but two new seasonals this month: 12 oz. Curl (Pilsner) and Tripel Nova (Belgian-style Tripel).
Need help keeping ’em straight? One requires a seatbelt due to a 9.8% ABV, and the other is a brand-new release AND the brewery’s second packaged lager.
Ale Asylum says it has received frequent requests to produce a pilsner but haven’t been able to until now.
“It’s not like we were trying to be jerks or anything,” the brewery said in a newsletter release to consumers, “we just weren’t able to allocate time and tank space needed to fit one into our seasonal distribution portfolio.”
However, the brewery made sure to make room for one this year and gave it the name 12 oz. Curl. Get it? We knew you would.
The ever-lovely and effervescent Tripel Nova is now available on draft and in 12 oz. bottle six-packs through the end of April.
“It’s straight up delish poured fresh or cellars beautifully in a cool and dark place for those special occasions when a special beer like this would be ideal,” the brewery said. “Do your pride a favor and remember that this is a great sipping beer, not a “I just had four of these and decided to run naked onto the dance floor at my cousin’s wedding” kind of beer.”
