A local metro brewery is making a big impact on the college student community. Printer’s Ale Manufacturing Company recently announced the release of their special beer, “Red & Blue Brew.” What sets this beer apart is not only its unique label design, which features the same colors as the University of West Georgia logo in Carroll County, but also its purpose. All proceeds from the sales of “Red & Blue Brew” will be donated to the university.

In a Facebook post, the company stated, “When you purchase a six-pack of ‘Red & Blue Brew,’ you’re not just enjoying a delicious beer with a visually appealing label created by the talented wolves themselves, but you’re also contributing to a worthy cause.”

The beer itself is a German pilsner. According to craftbeer.com, pilsners are known for their light color and short finish. They have become a popular choice for beer enthusiasts worldwide, and American craft brewers have put their own unique spin on this classic German style.

A classic German-style pilsner is characterized by its straw to pale color and malty sweetness in both aroma and flavor. It also has a medium to high perceived hop bitterness, with moderate and obvious noble-type hop aroma and flavor. Unlike Bohemian-style pilsners, the German-style pilsners are lighter in color and body, with a lower perceived hop bitterness.

“Red & Blue Brew” can be found at various stores in the Carrollton area. By enjoying this beer, not only will you have a refreshing beverage, but you will also be supporting the local university and its students.

In a time where college expenses and education funding are always a concern, it’s heartening to see a local business like Printer’s Ale Manufacturing Company stepping up to make a difference. Their commitment to giving back to their community and helping college students is commendable. So why not grab a six-pack of “Red & Blue Brew” and toast to supporting education and enjoying a delicious beer?
