Hapeville, GA – Great news for craft beer lovers in Alabama. They will soon have available craft beers from one of the top breweries out of Georgia. Arches Brewing just announced they will begin distribution in the Birmingham, Montgomery, and Mobile markets the week of August 24th.

Lloyd’s Light is a low ABV (3.8%) American Lager perfect for the hot humid summers of the South. It’s an easy drinking, sessionable Lager with nuanced notes from Magnum, Hallertauer, Hersbrucker and Callista hops. Characterized by restrained bitterness and a refreshing clean, crisp finish. It is perfect for cookouts and lazy days by the pool or lake.

Arches Brewing opened in 2016 in Hapeville, GA. Arches describes their approach as a “focus on bringing the best of old-world tradition and modern brewing practices together to offer many traditional lagers, Euro-inspired ales, and creatively brewed small batch beers.” Realizing great beer starts with great water, the brewery places a particular emphasis on water chemistry to build water profiles similar to the region that a beer style may have originated from. That kind of attention to detail results in quality craft beers for the craft beer enthusiast.
