Just in time for summer, one of the region's most promising breweries is set to debut a canned version of its popular American amber lager, specially branded with a local stamp of approval.
Aston-based 2SP Brewing Company, launched last year with a lineup of seven beers, announced on Monday that it will release a canned version of Delco Lager to area distributors beginning next week.
"We couldn't be more excited about releasing this beer in cans because it is a beer we brewed for our home and our people," the brewery wrote in a Facebook post. "This beer is great for primo hoagies and chill nights, Delco tacos (pizza), tail gaiting, corn hole, a compliment to filet or cheese burger, and best drank with a no b.s. sensibility."
Cases and six-packs will go on sale out of the brewery this Saturday, June 11, and will be released to regional distributors on June 13.
