Once again, we’ve teamed up with our Pennsylvania neighbors at Unique Snacks to bring you beer-and-pretzel pairings perfect for sharing with friends and family this fall.
Together, we tasted a variety of combinations to identify the best pairings. Here’s where we landed:
Perpetual IPA with Original Splits: Crispy, crunchy and citrusy
Troegenator Double Bock with Extra Dark Splits: Bold, dark and malty
Oktoberfest Lager with Sourdough Craft Beer Pretzel Rings: Toasty, crisp and festive
Sunshine Pilsner with Pretzel Shells: Crisp, snappy and refreshing
Lucky Holler Hazy IPA with Multigrain Splits: Malted barley and tropical pineapple
“We’re Pennsylvania natives,” says our founding brother and brewmaster John Trogner. “That’s a big part of our identity. So it’s natural for us to partner with another family-owned Pennsylvania maker. Both of us geek out on taking ingredients and making something delicious, and those two things happen to taste great together. That’s the kind of partnership that just makes sense to us.”
“Tröegs’ devotion to the art and science of brewing flavorful, refreshing beers using only the best ingredients, including some from right here in Pennsylvania, creates a natural alignment with our focus on creating distinct flavor and textural characteristics using fewer ingredients to create greater flavor,” stated Justin Spannuth, Chief Operating Officer of Unique Snacks.
You can find these combinations at select Giant Food Stores, Acme Markets, Redner’s Markets, Weis Markets and other participating grocery stores and food retailers.
