Steamboat Lager Being Released As 75th Official Beer
There’s a new beer in town. In recognition of Steamboat Day’s 75th anniversary, Steamboat Lager will be available for a limited time in Winona. Event organizers have worked with Hop & Barrel Brewing Company of Spring Valley and Hudson to select one of their most popular offerings. Steamboat Days board member Michael Mohan said it’s “a Helles Lager, a clean, crisp refreshing pale lager”.
The beer was unveiled in a ceremony this afternoon at HyVee Wine & Spirits, with Winona mayor Scott Sherman enjoying the first sip.
Steamboat Lager is available at HyVee Wine & Spirits, as well as several on-sale locations, including the Eagles Club and Sliced. You can stock up now through the June 15 – 19 Steamboat Days celebration, or until supplies are gone.
You can also sample several varieties from Hop & Barrel at the Sip & Celebrate wine and beer-tasting event and silent auction the evening of May 7th at the Winona American Legion. Tickets are available at HyVee, and you can find additional information at winonasteamboatdays.com.
