Tasmanian brewery Jamed Boag has unveiled its first new beer for over a decade - a crisp, refreshing lager called Wild Rivers.
The Boags team describes the new brew as "a modern take on an Australian premium lager" and it was developed by the team at the James Boag Brewery in Launceston.
“We’re proud of what we feel is a beautifully balanced yet subtly complex lager,” said head brewer Nathan Groves (below). “We feel it reflects all that is unique about Tasmania, with its fresh aroma reminiscent of our crisp air and beautiful bushlands.
“As a brewer, this was an extraordinary challenge and fantastic one-time opportunity to come up with something new. . It was important for us to respect the brand’s rich history and keep its integrity intact, while creating something new that everyone could enjoy.”
