MOOSEHEAD BREWERIES PRESIDENTIAL PACKS ARE DELIVERED ACROSS CANADA

Limited-edition format from Canada's oldest and largest independent brewery includes one beer for every day of the American Presidential Term SAINT JOHN, NB, June 30, 2025 /CNW/ - In March, Moosehead Breweries introduced the Presidential Pack, a limited-edition crate that includes 1,461 cans of the brand's iconic Canadian Lager - just enough to get through the full presidential term. Response was overwhelming. The Presidential Pack captured international attention, selling out - at a retail price of $3,490 - in just days and attracting a waitlist of more than 450 names. Now, just in time for Canada Day, the completed packs are making their way to lucky purchasers across the country. "The single biggest question we heard when we launched the Presidential Pack was: is this for real?" says Karen Grigg, Director of Marketing at Moosehead Breweries.

Let's Talk JosephsBrau Hefeweizen - Video Beer Review #372

Trader
Joe's
 is a neighborhood grocery store with amazing
food and drink from around the globe and around the corner
. One of the
things they also bring to their stores is their own beer line from under the
name of JosephsBrau Brewing. This is a look at their Bavarian Style Hefeweizen
which comes in at an ABV of 5.3%.

The beer itself pours out a nice amber colored beer that
produces a nice sudsy head that sits slightly off-white, or as some may say,
bone-white. There was a chill haze shown on the beer, although it was possible
to see some of the lively carbonation that was taking place. And as the head
dissipated, there was some nice lacing that was left behind as well.
As far as the aroma, the beer was positioned to offer notes
of bubble gum and citrus. While I did sense some of the bubble gum, there did
seem to be a lack of the citrus. But, what I did receive were the notes of
clove and banana which did stand out as they should, and did provide a nice
aspect to the malt forwardness of the beer.

The taste did offer a nice initial flavor burst and also
brought with it a nice refreshing quality. The texture on this medium body beer
wasn’t as thin as expected, and offered a good sturdiness and avoided being
watery on the taste. It definitely comes across as a nice beer for a warm day
and can definitely go down easily with its sooth taste. And on the back end,
there wasn’t harshness and the carbonation sits nicely on the palate. One additional
note would be that it is good to also let it warm a little as you drink it; the
aromas and flavors due become enhanced along the way.

Overall, this beer is a great craft beer value for what you
get in relation to what you pay. I have had others that have cost more that
haven’t been as nice as what this one offers. Not all have worked out on these
value beers from JosephsBrau, but this one is worth picking up for sure.
