American craft beer brand Brooklyn Brewery has announced that it will be launching a Special Effects variety pack -- a colorfully designed 24-pack of non-alcoholic beers. The case will include three cans of four booze-free beverages, including the brand's popular Hoppy Amber and IPA, and newcomers Special Effects Pilsner and Special Effects Hazy IPA.
The new variety pack was created with the intention of feeding the growing desire for non-alcoholic beers while also offering customers the opportunity to experiment with flavors and variations in order to discover their own preferences within this niche category.
"The options in this category have been so limited for so long, and we hope to add more styles to the lineup as we continue to sharpen our production process and develop new methods for non-alcoholic brewing," said Garret Oliver, Brewmaster at Brooklyn brewery.
Currently, the 24-packs are available at select retailers but will roll out more widely in January 2022.
