We will be unveiling a new beer called THE LAFAYETTE.  The beer is a collaboration among the American Friends of Lafayette, the Artillery Brewing Company of West Chester and Heavy Seas Beer of Baltimore.  This is the first of a series of beers honoring Lafayette and the Bicentennial of his Grand Tour as America’s guest.  The beer is made from French inspired ingredients.  

Michael Loveless of Artillery Brewing said, “We are honored to work with the American Friends of Lafayette and Heavy Seas Beer in crafting this French-inspired homage brew. We’ve researched the recipes of Lafayette’s day. Our company’s brand was founded in honor of our nation’s fight for independence.”

Caroline Sission of Heavy Seas Beer added, “We are headquartered in Baltimore and Lafayette has strong ties to both Baltimore and all of Maryland. We’re excited to be part of this grand celebration and The Lafayette.”

The unveiling of The Lafayette will take place at Artillery Brewing’s new location, 4221 Ferne Blvd., Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania (noon on Saturday, September 16).

AFL members can order lunch and sip their newest beer.  Lafayette will be there as well !!!!
