E-Malt.com News article: USA: MillerCoors to release new beer in Ohio
Brewery news

MillerCoors is releasing a beer made using a 91-year-old pre-Prohibition recipe in the Cincinnati, Cleveland and Columbus markets this month, Ohio.com reported on May, 10.

The beer is called Batch 19 Pre-Prohibition Style Lager.

MillerCoors said it discovered the recipe in an old logbook in the Coors brewery archives. It described the beer as having "a bold, hoppy flavor that is well balanced using a rare combination of Hersbrucker and Strisslespalt hops." The beer was first introduced in 2010 in Chicago, Milwaukee, San Francisco, Washington, D.C., Denver and Boston and is now expanding distribution.

“Many recipes were lost when Prohibition banned beer in 1919 and we’re thrilled to be able to bring beer drinkers a taste of the past,” brewmaster Manny Manuele said in a prepared statement. “When we uncovered this recipe, we knew we had something special and the great response has allowed us to share it with even more fans."
