Highland Announces Release of “Black Mountain Bitter – an organic pale ale”

Highland Brewing Company is excited to announce that “Black Mountain Bitter – an organic pale ale” will be released to its entire seven state distribution area to kick off the New Year. Highland’s distributors will begin receiving shipments of Black Mountain Bitter the week of January 4th. If you are local to Asheville, you may have had the good fortune of picking up a six pack at your local package store or grocery during December. However, with the beginning of the New Year, you will also be able to find Black Mountain Bitter – an organic pale ale on draught at your favorite restaurant, pub or tavern.

To meet the ever growing demand for unique seasonal brews, Highland is pleased to have their lightest pale ale back in the market for its second year running. This classic English Bitter is a refreshing session beer meticulously hand crafted with a unique Highland twist. Brewed with 100% organic grains, using English Golding hops for bittering and dry hopped with British Challenger for aromatics, this beer finishes crisp and clean. It is a refreshing seasonal experience.

If enjoying a cask of organic “light” pale ale interests you, then be sure to drop by Highland’s 15th Anniversary party which has been rescheduled for Friday, January 22nd and enjoy a Firkin cask of “Black Mountain Bitter – an organic pale ale.” The 15th Anniversary Party will be held at Highland’s facility at 12 Old Charlotte Highway, Asheville NC 28803 from 4:00 until 10:00pm. Live entertainment is provided by two of Asheville’s new and upcoming bands (“Now You See Them,” & “Funknastics,”) with food by Barley’s Tap Room & Pizzeria. Barley’s is also celebrating its 15th anniversary.
