A note on the Brooklyn & Schneider beers: Garrett Oliver, Brewmaster for Brooklyn Brewery and Hans Peter Drexler from Schneider Brewery in Germany collaborated on two different versions of the same style. The Schneider version was brewed in Germany at the Centuries old Schneider brewery and was released in very limited quantities. The Brooklyn version was brewed in the NYC Brooklyn Brewery and was released in Bombers only, again on a very limited basis. As with all collaborations the brewery that brews it is the one that distributes it. We are lucky to have a great relationship with Schneider and their local distributor and we were able to get delivery on the last 6 kegs in the country. We’ve just recieved these kegs and when our supply runs out it’s gone forever. I may cellar a couple of kegs for Octoberfest so what we have won’t last long. The Brooklyn version will arrive with the Brooklyn truck designated for Garrett’s week here in New Orleans.
