Flying Dog Brewery Releases Kerberos Tripel and Canis Major Mixed Pack

Frederick, MD, May 06, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Flying Dog Brewery recently announced the release of a new addition to their “litter of ales” as Kerberos Tripel joins the brewery’s highly acclaimed Canis Major Series.

Kerberos Tripel is a bottle conditioned, strong Belgian-style ale with a slightly hazy appearance and mousse-like head. It is brewed with Golding and Saaz hops and Pilsner and Aromatic malts to yield a medium body and champagne-like carbonation. Kerberos pairs perfectly with Turkey and other poultry, creamy cheeses, fruit pastries, desserts and crème brulee.

Head Brewer, Matt Brophy said, “Extensive pilot system brewing allowed us to experiment with a variety of recipes and yeast strains. We ended up with a strong Belgian Ale that starts off sweet up front, fruity in the middle and has a really nice dry finish.”

As Kerberos Tripel is the 4th member of Flying Dog’s Canis Major Series, the brewery will also be launching a Mixed 4-pack featuring one 12oz. bottle of each Canis Major style. The Canis Major Series is Flying Dog’s group of ”extreme” beers and includes World Beer Cup Gold Award- winning Gonzo Imperial Porter, Horn Dog Barley Wine, Double Dog Double Pale Ale and the new Kerberos Tripel.

“As consumers continue to look for new and exciting styles of Craft Beer, our Canis Major Mixed Pack will make for a great way to sample four really interesting beers with one purchase,” said Neal Stewart, Flying Dog Brewery’s director of marketing.
