E-Malt.com News article: USA, CA: Karl Strauss releases Mouette à Trois
Brewery news

To celebrate the end of a record-breaking year Karl Strauss is releasing its limited edition holiday ale, Mouette à Trois, craftbeer.com reported on November, 28.

The spiced ale will be featured at the company’s holiday party, Brewfestivus, to mark the end of a benchmark year. 2012 has been an exceptional year for the company; beer sales are up 27% post-brewery expansion, their new brewery restaurant is setting sales records of its own, and the expansion into Northern California has far exceeded projections. “We’ve been nonstop for a long time and after all of the hard work everyone’s put in this year, we’re looking forward to celebrating the holidays with a new beer and a rockin’ party” says Paul Segura, Karl Strauss Brewmaster.

Brewfestivus will take place inside the brewery on Friday December 7, 2012. “So many people told us what a great time they had at last year’s party that we decided to make it an annual event,” says Segura.

Mouette à Trois, the third installment in the company’s award-winning 12 Days of Christmas series, will be one of the strong ales featured at Brewfestivus. To create the fruitcake flavors, the base of the beer is a Belgian dubbel with apricot and cherries added during the boil to create a ripe fruitiness. The beer is spiced with a traditional fruitcake blend of cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla, orange peel, and clove.

Since 1989, Karl Strauss Brewing Company has pioneered the local beer scene in San Diego. 23 years later, the company continues to brew an innovative line-up of award-winning beers ranging from longtime favorites like Red Trolley Ale to new releases like Wreck Alley Imperial Stout. In 2011, the company brewed 40,000 barrels.
