Genesee 12 Horse Ale is Back for a Limited Time! Fan Favorite Emerges from the Genesee Vault by Popular Demand

ROCHESTER, N.Y., Oct. 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Genesee Brewery announced that a true fan favorite is galloping back to shelves. Genesee 12 Horse Ale is finally making its long-awaited return! Thanks to an overwhelming wave of demand from fans on social media, the return of 12 Horse Ale marks the first release from the "Genesee Vault," a new initiative that celebrates the brewery's storied past by reintroducing its most beloved brews.

The Genesee Vault: Unlocking Nostalgia, One Brew at a Time, with 12 Horse Ale Leading the Charge

Through the "Genesee Vault," the brewery plans to take fans on a nostalgic journey through the brewery's rich heritage with each Vault release. Beer enthusiasts can expect to rediscover the timeless flavors that have shaped Genesee's legacy. When there's mention of the "Genesee Vault," fans can expect the return of an iconic brew that celebrates Genesee's past.

"The Genesee Vault is a long time coming," said Tiffany Bowman, brand manager for Genesee. "There are so many delicious legacy recipes from Genesee's past. It only felt right that 12 Horse Ale leads the charge as the first release from the Genesee Vault."

12 Horse Ale, first brewed in 1933 just as Prohibition came to an end, quickly became a staple for beer lovers across generations. 12 Horse Ale is brewed with six-row barley malt, hops from the Yakima Valley, and Genesee's proprietary top-fermenting ale yeast. This yeast was brough to the brewery in 1933 from England and has been used in brewing Genesee ales ever since.

"For this Genesee Vault release, we've brewed 1,500 barrels of 12 Horse Ale to meet the high demand," said Bowman.

Superfans have consistently filled the brewery's social feeds with calls for 12 Horse Ale to make a comeback. Hundreds of comments requesting 12 Horse Ale have been posted in the past year alone.
