WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. -- Heineken USA is mixing things up with its third edition of the Newcastle Brown Ale variety pack.
Available at retail now, Newcastle’s Best of Britain Batch includes the brand’s new Caley Amber Ale in combination with returning limited-edition Newcastle British Pale Ale and flagship brew Newcastle Brown Ale.
“During the summer, when social gatherings and outdoor celebrations are in full swing, variety packs offer something for all tastes,” said Priscilla Dohnert, brand director. “Our Best of Britain Batch gives shoppers a combination of bigger, bolder beers that they can experiment with.”
The Best of Britain Batch No. 3 includes equal amounts of three distinct offerings:
- Newcomer Newcastle Caley Amber Ale (6.5% ABV, 26 IBUs), a golden amber ale with a sweet malt and raisin aroma, molasses, malt, fruit and spice flavor, and mellow vanilla but warming, chocolate and tangy finish
