FOR RELEASE - Thursday, February 16th BOMBER CELEBRATES ITS 3RD ANNIVERSARY WITH A COAST MOUNTAIN BREWING COLLABORATION DOUBLE SECRET PROBATION DOPPELSTICKE ALTBIER: When head brewers Blair Calibaba (Bomber) and Kevin Winter (Whistler's Coast Mountain) first met, they immediately became fast friends and began plans for a collaboration brew. The result of that planning is this special version of a Düsseldorf Altbier that is higher in alcohol than the traditional German style with a much hoppier aroma due to the use of dry-hopping. 'Doppelsticke' means 'double secret' in German, hence the nod to the Delta House brothers and Dean Wormer's infamous crackdown. In the words of John 'Bluto' Blutarsky, "My advice to you is to start drinking heavily." About Double Secret Probation Doppelsticke Altbier: Appearance: Deep mahogany, off-white, creamy head Aroma: Malted milk balls, leather, floral and grassy hop aromatics Flavour: Rich and slightly roasty
