There have been a number of new and exciting additions to our TTB library during 2019 that align with current market trends and future forecasting.
Hard Seltzers
Hard Seltzers continue to grow in popularity, and consumers are seeking unique and fun flavors that will light up a party. Classic fruit flavors are always a hit, but try a pairing with a fresh botanical for an invigorating summersip: Strawberry& Rosemary, Mango & Basil, Cucumber & Garden Mint, and Lemonade & Lavender. Let your inner-child run wild with Tutti Frutti or Cotton Candy or Dragonfruit.
Consumers are also craving their favorite mixed-drink flavors at the lower-ABV offerings. Pina Colada is the perfect blend of juicy Pineapple and creamy Coconut. “Sex on the Beach” is a heavenly union of mouthwatering Peach, Orange, and Cranberry with a pop. Our Mojito pairs seamlessly with Blackberry for a tasty twist on the popular. Cherry Limeade, Margarita, and Sangria will round out your fruity summer-mixer lineup.
Beers
Of course, there will always be those consumers who stick with beer, but are looking for a new twist on their old favorites.
For the light beers, Ginger pairs well with many of our new citrus and berry options: Mandarin Orange, Blood Orange, Yuzu, Black Raspberry, and Mixed Berry. Tropicals (Guava, Passionfruit, and Papaya) are a great addition that enhances those desirable hoppy characteristics, especially in IPAs.
For those darks, Vanilla Cream and Chai Spice can stand alone or harmoniously blend together. Caramel and Salted Caramel are deliciously sweet, creamy, and buttery. All of these are delectable treats for cravings in any weather.
Flavor Highlight: A Touch of Cinnamon
Cinnamon is a favorite of the Holiday Season, often due to the positive memories associated with warmth and baked treats. A touch of cinnamon gives many profiles, including the following, a tasty zing. For Seltzers and Light Beers, try French Toast, a delicious blend of bready, buttery, maple, and cinnamon. Cinnamon Toast Cereal is our take on your favorite crunchy cinnamon cereal with sweet milk. Horchata has that creamy richness that you crave with the perfect amount of real cinnamon. For the Dark Beers, cozy up to the fire with Mexican Chocolate for a delightful fusion of sweet chocolate and aromatic cinnamon. All of these sweet flavors can be used in combination with our Hot Solution for your perfect amount of spicy-heat.
