Slane’s Irish Style Red is Back in Season
MUKILTEO, WA – Diamond Knot Craft Brewing released its popular Slane’s Irish Style Red to its thirsty followers this weekend. And this brew is red hot. Every year production is increased and every year the beer sells out, confirming what the Diamond Knot crew already knows: this is one hell of a great red.
“This seasonal definitely has its cult following, “ said Sherry Jennings, director of sales and marketing at Diamond Knot. “It’s already on the shelves at local retailers and on tap in the region; and it was released yesterday. Even our wholesale customers are excited to get it flowing. Maybe it’s just spring fever and the promise of longer days ahead, but whatever it is, this beer makes us all smile.”
