New Hoppy Shepherd Year-Round Brew to be Released Feb.11. It will be available on tap and 6pks at your local establishments. The Hoppy Shepherd will be available throughout the Midwest in Minnesota, Wisconsin, North Dakota, South Dakota and Iowa.
‘We’re thrilled to offer this awesome addition to the hop inspired beers in the marketplace. The Hoppy Shepherd is perfect for stirring conversation from even the most sheepish of characters’ remarked FINNEGANS founder, Jacquie Berglund.
This ale has a perfect blend of Admiral, Centennial, Citra and Jester hops with aromas of apricot, grapefruit and tangerine. We’re especially excited for the Jester hops because our brewing partner, Summit Brewing Company, is one of the few U.S. brewers fortunate enough to have access to Jester hops.
‘Jester is a remarkable hop – it has intense aromas of lychees, citrus and tropical fruits – and so far it has proved to be a good hop to grow. It’s becoming a real British Hop “rock star”,’ noted, Alison Capper, from Stocks Farm, UK.
