New Realm Brewing and King of Pops announce the release of their first popsicle and beer collaboration, BLG Belgian Ale. The two Atlanta-based tastemakers came up with the recipe when pairing New Realm brews with King of Pops frozen treats. The BGL Belgian Ale combines the refreshing notes of a blackberry, ginger, lemon pop, and a Belgian style beer.
“King of Pops are our neighbors on the Belt-line, and it was inevitable that we shared and paired beers and pops on hot Atlanta afternoons,” said Carey Falcone, Co-Founder, and CEO of New Realm Brewing. “Our favorite pairing was a Blackberry Ginger Lemon pop with our Belgian style beer, so we put together a recipe that added the popsicle base to the Belgian.”
“We want to keep pushing ourselves to help create things that make people happy,” said Steven Carse, Co-Founder of King of Pops. “Working with New Realm to create a beer that is amazing by itself and completely unique when you add a pop to it hopefully does exactly that.”
BLG Belgian Ale is amber and orange with light pink hues and clocks in at 7.5% ABV and 18 IBU. The ale is now available for a limited time on draft and in 12-oz 6 pack cans in New Realm’s Atlanta brewery to-go coolers, as well as from retailers around Georgia.
