Second Self Beer’s Bleeding Heart is Back
(Atlanta, GA) – Bleeding Heart, the limited edition, Valentine’s Day-inspired brew from Atlanta’s Second Self Beer Company, is back for year two!
This amber ale was one of Second Self’s most popular releases last year. Available throughout Georgia starting today, the beer is brewed with fresh Tanzanian cocoa nibs, a fruity variety of nib specially selected by Cacao Atlanta Chocolate Co., and organic Madagascar vanilla. It’s inspired by the recipe for a traditional, Southern red velvet cake, and red malts and cocoa lend the beer a festive pink color. Co-founders Jason Santamaria and Chris Doyle have been developing Bleeding Heart’s recipe for over seven years.
Second Self has also released “Old Heart” (a Bourbon Barrel Aged version of Bleeding Heart) in limited quantities, and in future years, they plan to release other versions of the same beer, including “Bitter Heart” (a dry hopped version) and “Wild Heart” (a sour version).
