Cool shit right here:

The best part is that it’s brewed with freshly-contaminated latex water, straight from Lower Bucks County!

Here’s the full blurb from the IG page:

We are quite psyched to FINALLY share the news that we’re going to be introducing a new line of fruit-forward beers inspired by the flavors of a fellow Bucks County, PA original, Rita’s Italian Ice! The first in this series of Rita’s Fruit Brews will be a refreshing Blonde Ale brewed with 2-Row Malt, White Wheat, Flaked Oats, and hopped with Herkules and Chinook then conditioned on loads of juicy mangoes. The result is an easy-drinking 5% ABV beer with big fruity flavor and aroma that will transport you straight back to waiting under a big candy stripe awning for your icy sweet treat.

The Rita’s Fruit Brews Mango Blonde Ale will debut in 12oz 6-packs and draft on Saturday, April 15th at the 3 Neshaminy Creek taprooms in Croydon, Dublin, and New Hope. Our Croydon and Dublin locations will both host family-friendly release parties featuring live music, circus performers, food trucks, Rita’s Italian Ice, and more on Saturday, April 15th starting at 12pm! Following the launch, you’ll be able to find Rita’s Fruit Brews throughout Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, and Delaware.

As two Bucks County originals, we’ve been working on this idea with Rita’s for a long time and have some exciting plans for the future. Cheers to warmer days ahead!

Excellent. Love a good collab. No IPA though. If the next NCBC/Rita’s release is an India Pale Ale, I’M OUT. Might as well do a collab with a deciduous forest, because that’s what the beer tastes like.

Neshaminy Creek is a great local brewery. They also have metal shows on the loading dock, so I’ll throw them a shout out for that as well. Random fact: Napalm Death has played two live shows at Croydon breweries.
