Big Rock Brewery Inc.: Drinking is Believing

CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - May 6, 2013) - Big Rock Brewery Inc. (TSX:BR) is announcing its newest addition to the Brewmaster's Edition- Rosmarinus Aromatic Ale. Crafted with slight malt sweetness up front and a rosemary finish, Rosmarinus is a medium body brew with a medium carbonation jingle at 5.6% - that will take your senses to the next level.

It's been a busy season for Brewmaster Paul Gautreau. He and his team have their hands full with the recent release of our 2013 Innovation Brewing Schedule. Rosmarinus, the latest addition, is an aromatic pale ale with a 150 lbs of rosemary for four separate batches. Paul said "When I first thought of making a beer with rosemary, it instantly brought a smile to my face. Now that the beer has been perfected, the aroma and the flavour bring a permanent smile. I love Rosmarinus because it is deliberately different and also because it tastes so darn good."

If you want to know exactly where you can pick up this delicious beer, or try it on tap, you can start your search by putting on your beer goggles and heading to our website's beer finder feature at www.bigrockbeer.com/beer-finder. Rosmarinus is available just in time for barbeque season in Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba until September or while quantities last.

The Brewmaster's Edition is an on going program that will release small batches of innovative brews on a seasonal basis. These crafty brews all share one very special ingredient - play. Featuring our most imaginative flavours and profiles, they are a product of our passion for innovation, our constant curiosity and our insatiable sense of adventure.
