The Lagunitas Brewing Company, a brewery with a history of hop-forward and innovative craft beers, has taken its craft brewing know-how into the world of tea, with the launch of\u00a0Disorderly TeaHouse<\/a>\u00a0premium spiked and sparkling tea. This freshly brewed, just slightly sweet hard tea features natural fruit flavors, like yuzu lemon, raspberry and blackberry.<\/p>\n
Disorderly TeaHouse is the first hard tea to be fresh-brewed with premium\u00a0guayusa tea<\/a>\u00a0leaves that are hand-picked by Indigenous farmers from\u00a0Ecuador<\/span>. Guayusa [gwahy-yoo-suh] is described as “ancient energy” and\u00a0Lagunitas<\/span>\u00a0deliberately chose it because of its slightly sweet, smooth, and never bitter flavor. After selecting only the finest guayusa tea leaves,\u00a0Lagunitas<\/span>\u00a0brews the tea in-house to give Disorderly TeaHouse its authentic taste. Then, natural fruit flavors are added to provide a crisp finish to Disorderly TeaHouse’s\u00a0two available varieties: Yuzu Lemon Squeeze and\u00a0Mixed-Up\u00a0Berries.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
“Lagunitas<\/span>\u00a0saw an opportunity to create our first hard tea that taps into people’s growing demand for a better-for-you alcoholic beverage — coming in at just 100 calories with 0 grams of sugar* and gluten-free. Nothing artificial,” <\/em>said\u00a0Paige Guzman<\/span>,\u00a0Lagunitas’<\/span>\u00a0Chief Marketing Officer. “We’ve seen the hard seltzer and premium malt beverage market become so oversaturated, and wanted to offer up an alternative that spoke to the authenticity of our heritage in the craft brewing process and gives consumers a more premium offering.”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Hard teas are building in popularity among consumers. In fact, tea is growing at 50%, which is 8 times faster than total beer.*<\/p>\n
“Our brewers have been fans of guayusa tea for years because of the clean, unique flavor and smooth energy it produces; it felt natural to innovate using 100% hand-selected and hand-harvested guayusa tea as the featured ingredient for Disorderly TeaHouse, elevating the whole profile of the beverage,” <\/em>said\u00a0Jeremy Marshall<\/span>, Lagunitas BrewMonster. “And then we don’t load it up with artificial sweeteners or flavors. It’s a premium, balanced tea-forward taste paired with delicious and thoughtful natural fruit flavors that we think people will love, especially as we move into the warmer seasons.”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Spilling the Tea on Disorderly TeaHouse<\/b><\/p>\n
In true\u00a0Lagunitas<\/span>\u00a0fashion, the name is inspired by its rebellious nature and history. Back in 2005, the brewery was served a citation for keeping a “disorderly house” by the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control, and the brewery was promptly shut down temporarily. Disorderly TeaHouse reflects the combination of the charge and a traditional tea house.<\/p>\n
Disorderly TeaHouse is a different kind of brew that brings a twist to classic tea flavors. Both of the current varieties are earthy and herbal along with a splash of flavorful fruits. The\u00a0Yuzu Lemon Squeeze<\/a>\u00a0has a whisp of aromatic, tart yuzu citrus love, while\u00a0Mixed-Up Berries<\/a>\u00a0has subtly sweet raspberry and blackberry fruitiness. Each Disorderly TeaHouse has only 5% Alcohol by Volume, 100 calories, 2 grams of carbs, 0 grams of sugar** and gluten-free. So #SteepOnThat!<\/p>\n
