Brick Brewing Company Launches NEW Red Baron Light

WATERLOO, ON, Oct. 28 /CNW/ - Brick Brewing Co. Limited (TSX: BRB) announced today that as the summer months come to a close, and fall is upon us, that it's never too late to bring Ontario beer drinkers a refreshing, light full flavoured beer.

Brick Brewing Company has crafted Red Baron Light to compliment their already successful Red Baron Lime and Red Baron Lager line up of premium blonde beers. Like the Red Baron family, Brick will be launching Red Baron Light in a clear glass bottle giving Ontario beer drinkers another reason to help celebrate Brick's 25th Anniversary as Ontario's first craft brewery.

"Red Baron Light has all the character of Red Baron Premium Blonde Lager and appeals to all beer drinkers who seek a little more flavor from a light beer," said Sean Dennis Director of Marketing "Red Baron Light will be the perfect addition to just about any occasion and an equally great beer to serve over the holiday season" added Dennis.

Red Baron Light is a premium light, full flavored beer that is brewed with all natural ingredients, has less hop content and is extremely refreshing.

"Both Red Baron Lager and Red Baron Lime have been a big hit for us" said George Croft President and CEO. "Consumer interest in a more flavorful light beer drove our decision to develop and launch Red Baron Light, and we are pleased to make the beer available to Ontario beer drinkers as an addition to an already great tasting and equally great looking Red Baron family of beers" added Croft.

The packaging features the well known Red Baron logo in distinct white lettering against a glossy, metallic silver finish making a striking visual impression while showcasing the clear glass bottle. Red Baron Light is 4.0% alc./vol and is available now at The Beer Store in a 12pk size for $15.95 including deposit.
