Fierce Beer has announced a second beer collaboration with Aberdeen Football Club, in the form of Wasp, a 4.2% ABV dry Irish-style stout.
The new partnership follows the success of the specially crafted 1983 lager range.
Wasp is brewed with both flaked and roasted barley, for a full body and a rich, dark roast character. Maris Otter pale malt provides a toasty background note.
“The opportunity to launch Wasp amidst the ‘stout revival’ of the UK couldn’t have come at a better time,” said Craig Cargill, sales manager at Fierce Beer.
“As an Aberdeen-based brewery, Fierce Beer welcomes any new team-up with Aberdeen Football Club, but this one we are particularly excited about as it’s something completely different for the football community.
“Already a firm favourite within the world of rugby, we’ve every faith our take on the ale will prove just as popular with AFC fans. ‘Don’ your kit, grab yourself a can, and cheers to our next game!”
Robbie Hedderman, commercial director at Aberdeen FC, added: “We have been delighted by the response to our innovative collaboration with Fierce Beer, and the development of Wasp is testament to their forward-thinking creative team.
“They continue to think outside the box and work alongside the club to deliver products which lead the way within the football hospitality industry. I’ve no doubt their latest offering will once again be a great success.”
