Batch 19 gets its name from the year which it was originally made, 1919. In 1920, prohibition was introduced into the country and the recipe was lost. It was within the last couple years that Coors found the recipe and began producing it again. This product has merely been on the shelves for a few months. Although sales started slowly, the beer is gaining speed and popularity with consumers and sales are on the rise.
The beer is a hoppy, malty brew with a darker color than popular draft beer. As you take a drink, your taste buds are greeted with a spicy and heavier-than-used-to taste and feel. As you swallow, the true flavors kick in as you experience bitterness, followed by a slight sweetness to round out the bitter flavor. The alcohol content is more than your average beer, at roughly 5.5%.
When I sample this product to consumers, the majority of them are interested in learning more and making a future purchase. Many agree that the beer is dark, but not too overwhelming on taste. Coors brand enthusiasts agree that this is an awesome dark option for the organization that is most known for its light option.
Check it out and even though it is a little more expensive, it is not a product to be overlooked.
