BOS Brew Collaboration
The SmithGroup
Our second custom Beer Collab with the SmithGroup Team was such a fantastic experience. We created the SmithBräu Hefeweizen in October 2021 and recently hosted a release and tasting party with SmithGroup in our Chicago Showroom.
We enjoyed an evening of eating, drinking and celebrating. The SmithGroup Team took home their specialty brew bottles with their creative custom labels. It was great to be together in person and for everyone to cheers to their custom brew and stunning label design. Thank you to our brew master, Ogge Schieber for being a gracious host and sharing his passion of brewing with the team.
Introducing Product Release –
Brew Date: October 2021
Brew Name: Smith Bräu
Design Firm: The SmithGroup
Release Date: January 2022
Our unique and authentic brewing experience in the home of BOS AD Director, Ogge Schieber, who lives in Chicago’s Bronzeville neighborhood. We spent an afternoon brewing, learning, eating and drinking. A delicious German dinner was served during the mashing process.
The Beer we brewed together is a Bavarian Hefeweizen.
Hefeweizen is a type of weiss beer—German for “white beer.” Hefeweizen itself translates to “yeast wheat” in German. Made up of 70% wheat, weiss beers are characterized by a strong presence of banana and clove, even vanilla or bubblegum, in the aroma and flavor – depending on the fermentation temperature.
We love seeing our industry partners enjoying our Beer Collab experience and getting to experience Ogge’s passion for brewing and connecting over a good brew and fresh homemade pretzels.
Thank you to the SmithGroup for an amazing evening together.
