New craft brewery introduces beers aimed at female craft beer drinkers
St. Louis-based High Heel Brewing, a new craft beer company founded by master brewer Kristi McGuire, announced the introduction of a line of craft beers specifically aimed at female craft beer consumers. The company, which produces its beers in partnership with St. Louis-based Brew Hub, plans to introduce Slingback, a perry ale, and Too Hop'd to Handle, an American IPA, this summer. High Heel's beers will be brewed at Brew Hub's brewery in Lakeland, Fla., and distributed throughout Florida by Republic National Distributing Co., it adds.
"It's incredibly exciting to launch High Heel Brewing and introduce our first two beers," McGuire said in a statement. "Our goal was to fill a gap in the market and to celebrate women in brewing and all women who love craft beer. It has been a dream come true to collaborate with the women of Brew Hub, and this launch would not have been possible without them."
