If you follow PA craft beer closely, you have most likely heard of (and tried) the “Pointing North” collab beer from Levante Brewing and New Trail Brewing this past November. It was so popular, it won the “best collab” category in our Breweries In PA 2020 Readers Choice Awards.
Due to the popularity, we reported the two breweries were back at it for the second collab, aptly named “Pointing South”, a 10.2% Triple IPA, with a release scheduled for Thursday, Februrary 11th.
The name is of course a play off of the first collab, Pointing North. But the two breweries also went a step further on the word “South” with the use of 2 South African Hops – Southern Sublime and Southern Passion. They then blended these with Strata and Mosaic. And finally, to take the collab to the next level, the team chose to go with a Triple IPA.
Cans will start becoming available Thursday, 2/11 at 12:00 am from Levante. With cans from New Trail being available shortly after. This beer will also be available via Levante’s Mercury shipping program. Pointing South will retail for $21 per 4-pack.
