SanTan Brewing releases seasonal RailSlide imperial spiced ale today, Winter Warmer coming Nov. 25

RailSlide makes its seasonal debut at SanTan Brewing in downtown Chandler today. The imperial spiced ale will be available on draft and in cans during November and December.

The 7.1% beer traces its lineage to 12 Daze, a collaboration with Liberty Market in November 2011. Described as a strong American amber, it was brewed with Liberty’s chai tea, which provided notes of ginger, cinnamon, and cardamon.

Last November, a slightly reworked version of the beer was christened RailSlide, named for a snowboarding manuever. It became the first Arizona seasonal offered in a can.

RailSlide is just one of several seasonal or specialty beers still on SanTan’s 2013 calendar.

The always-popular Winter Warmer will debut Nov. 25, followed by an oak-aged version of RailSlide (Dec. 2), an unnamed blueberry saison (Dec. 9), and Sex Panther double chocolate porter (Dec. 30).
