Since wedding season is approaching, Papago will feature a new seasonal "Bride’s Ale" called Bridalweisse. Bride’s ale is an old tradition were the bride’s family brewed a special beer and served it at the wedding. The term "Bridal" resulted from this tradition. The Papago Bridalweiss is a unique beer style called a Schwarzweiss. It is dark like a Stout and has a slightly roasted, chocolaty and clove like aroma. It has the taste of a light German style Hefeweizen with banana flavor. It is not anything like you would expect from a dark beer. Our Bridalweisse was brewed in honor of Papago’s own Leah Ryan’s wedding to Jeff Huss of BJ’s Brewing on June 7th, 2008.
