The Bruery Launches Just a Kiss: A Love Letter to Southern California

ORANGE COUNTY, CA (March 15, 2021) – Pucker up, The Bruery is launching its next seasonal release: Just a Kiss, a foeder-aged saison ale with orange blossom flowers and locally sourced California honey.

Inspired by the rich agricultural history of The Bruery’s backyard in Orange County, Just a Kiss is an ode to the orange groves that once thrived in the area. This saison was fermented with Orange Blossom honey for six months in French oak foeders and finished with a final kiss of orange blossom flowers. Complex and easy-drinking at 5.3% ABV, Just a Kiss is made for friends and food.

“Just a Kiss is our wild expression of the southern Californian lifestyle. This beer was built with subtlety by experts of wild beer production,” says Jeremy Grinkey, The Bruery’s Director of Production, “using locally sourced Orange Blossom flowers and honey to give that special ‘SoCal kiss’ to this incredibly balanced wood-aged saison.”

Just a Kiss joins a portfolio that is rich in history and leans in on traditional brewing techniques to create innovative and truly unique beers from The Bruery Terreux— founded in 2015 as a space where Bruers specialize in experimental and wild ales. After spending six months in French oak foeders, essentially large barrels in this case over 250 bbls, the beer picks up earthy tones from the wood that perfectly complement the saison’s floral notes and sweetness.

Brand Director, Caitie Gold, notes, “This beer is the ultimate refreshing beer for a Southern California spring day. Grab a 4-pack and head outside, Just a Kiss will pair perfectly with an afternoon cheese board with the fruity and peppery notes you would expect from a saison.”

Just a Kiss will be available in 16 oz. 4-packs across The Bruery’s distribution footprint for a limited time as a seasonal release.
