SanTan Brewing Brands Limited Edition American Idiot Ale
SanTan Brewing Company Brands Limited Edition AMERICAN IDIOT Ale and is Named Exclusive Craft Beer Sold at ASU Gammage.
Chandler, AZ – In celebration of the PROGRESSIVE® Broadway Across America – Arizona performances of AMERICAN IDIOT, SanTan Brewing Company and ASU Gammage have teamed up to define the flavor of a typical American idiot. From April 9-29, 2012 SanTan Brewing Company will offer theater and craft beer fans alike this limited edition AMERICAN IDIOT Ale.
The crisp taste of this American west coast pale ale delivers a citrus hop character derived from hops grown in the Pacific Northwest with a balanced and firm caramel malt flavor. AMERICAN IDIOT Ale celebrates the “Do It Yourself” spirit of punk independence. SanTan Brewing took a traditional pale ale and turned it on its head with a huge injection of American west coast hops and non-traditional specialty malts.
“The idea of pairing the craft beer experience with an all-American story like this one defines our culture today—rock music, craft beer and an affinity for adventure is what life is all about,” said Anthony Canecchia, head brewmaster and owner of SanTan Brewing Company.
In addition to branding the AMERICAN IDIOT Ale, SanTan Brewing Company was named the exclusive craft beer of ASU Gammage offering canned Devil’s Ale and Hefeweizen to thirsty theater patrons.
The AMERICAN IDIOT Ale will be available at SanTan Brewing Company and 10 other valley locations including Tavern on Mill, Macayo’s, Cadillac Ranch, Mellow Mushroom on Mill, Devil’s Advocate, Flanny’s Bar & Grill, Boulders on Broadway, Monti’s La Casa Vieja, The Vine on Elliot and Mucho Gusto. All locations are offering drink specials, discounts and other deals exclusively for AMERICAN IDIOT ticket holders so be sure to flash yours to your server!
Direct from Broadway, the smash-hit musical AMERICAN IDIOT tells the story of three lifelong friends, forced to choose between their dreams and the safety of suburbia. Their quest for true meaning in a post 9/11 world leads them on the most exhilarating theatrical journey of the season. Based on Green Day’s GRAMMY® Award-winning multi-platinum album, AMERICAN IDIOT boldly takes the American musical where it’s never gone before. The national tour of the explosive Broadway hit AMERICAN IDIOT, called “wonderfully raucous” and “emotionally charged” by The New York Times, will make its Arizona premiere April 24-29, 2012 at ASU Gammage as part of the Broadway Across America – Arizona series.
