Gold Award Winner
MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN – Milwaukee Brewing Company is releasing their award winning Gin O-Gii on Sunday, April 14 in celebration of Milwaukee Day. Four packs (four 12 oz bottles) of Gin O-Gii will go on sale at noon for $16.99 per four pack. Each customer is limited to one (6) four packs. The tap room, located at 1128 N. 9th Street, will open and start pouring 2019 Gin O-Gii at 10:00am, so attendees can enjoy a beer while they wait in line to purchase bottles of Gin O-Gii.
In addition to 12oz snifters, Milwaukee Brewing Company will be pouring Gin O-Gii from a firkin and a randall, allowing visitors to the tap room to try all three variants. Head Brewer Kurt Mayes says, “Gin O-Gii is a great beer to release on 414 day because of the local ingredients that are used in all parts of the process, from using Rishi tea while brewing to aging the beer in gin barrels from Great Lakes Distillery.”
Gin O-Gii is aged in Rehorst Reserve Gin barrels from Great Lakes Distillery. These rare gin barrels contribute botanical flavors which compliment the ginger, green tea, and coriander used to brew O-Gii. “Our partnership with #Great Lakes Distillery# is a perfect example of what Milwaukee Brewing Company is all about: working with local partners to elevate one another and produce an awesome, craft product,” says founder and owner Jim McCabe.
Great Lakes Distillery will be at Milwaukee Brewing Company pouring samples of their craft spirits, including Rehorst Reserve Gin, from 10:00am-1:00pm on April 14.
In addition to the tap room being open early, there will be live music in the tap room for entertainment. Neighboring restaurant Glass & Griddle will have an offering for guests to snack on while sipping Gin O-Gii and waiting for bottles to go on sale. Milwaukee Brewing Company tours are offered every hour starting at 12:00pm. For more information, visit the Facebook event here.
