Hi-Wire Brewing Releases Death Defying Spring Ale

14 Jan 2016 --- With the new year comes a new seasonal release in Hi-Wire Brewing’s lineup. Death Defying Spring Ale will replace Contortionist Black IPA as Hi-Wire’s annual spring seasonal release. Copper in color and light on the palate, Death Defying is an approachable and easy to drink Belgian ale, an appropriately timed option for those ready to unthaw from cold months and heavy dark beers.

Death Defying marries the spicy and floral flavors of Styrian Golding and Czech Saaz hops with the traditional fruity flavors of Belgian yeast. This combination of flavors is balanced, as the noble hop combination doesn’t overwhelm the flavors of the Belgian yeast.

“The main goal of this beer,” stated Luke Holgate, Hi-Wire Brewing’s Head Brewer, “was to match the yeast profile to the hop profile. And I believe we really accomplished that with this beer.”

The 6% ABV Death Defying will hit shelves in six-packs across North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee this week. The spring ale will also be available on draft in numerous bars and restaurants across these territories through March.
