CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwire - 09/25/09) - Big Rock Brewery Income Trust (TSX:BR.UN - News): Big Rock Brewery is proud to announce that it will add another gold medal to its trophy case after Grasshopper Wheat Ale received a gold medal at the Canadian Brewing Awards (Wheat Beer North American Style category).
The Canadian Brewing Awards have become a premiere competition for judging the quality of Canadian-brewed beer. The contest is the only truly national competition that invites breweries of all sizes from across the country to compete in a blind tasting. Beers were judged based on appearance, aroma, flavour, mouth feel and overall impression.
Grasshopper, one of Big Rock Brewery's most popular beers, is a Kristall Weizen German-style wheat ale. It is delicately hopped and delivers a bright finish.
Big Rock is very proud of its family of beers. Being recognized as a leader in the Canadian marketplace reinforces what the company strives for every day: to brew the best beer possible.
