HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif.,
Feb. 12, 2016 /PRNewswire/
-- BJ's Restaurants Inc. (NASDAQ: BJRI) is excited to announce
the release of its first chocolate ale, BJ's Sweet Sin Chocolate
Ale, that is now available in its restaurants nationwide.
"We felt that BJ's Sweet Sin Chocolate Ale would be the perfect
beer to unveil in honor of both BJ's 20th brewing anniversary and
Valentine's Day," said BJ's Senior
Vice President of Brewery Operations Alex
Puchner. "We are excited for beer fans and chocolate fans
alike to come in and try this unique 5.9 percent ABV ale that is
only available at BJ's restaurants."
BJ's Sweet Sin Chocolate Ale was a sweet labor of love for BJ's
lead brewers. The team spent over two years designing and
perfecting the ale, which is brewed with a combination of three
dark malts, cocoa nibs, lactose sugar, natural chocolate flavoring
and a touch of vanilla. Notably different from other
chocolate ales on the market, BJ's Sweet Sin Chocolate Ale gets its
unique flavor by starting with a brown ale that is then brewed with
real chocolate and cocoa nibs for rich chocolate flavor.
This versatile ale is also the base of BJ's newest signature
cocktail, the ABSOLUT-ly Sinful Sweet Hazelnut, as well the Sweet
Sin Chocolate Ale Float served with vanilla bean ice cream.
