Cigar City Florida Cracker White Ale

Description

Cigar City – Florida Cracker White Ale

The Cracker Cowboys of Florida were colonial-era settlers, often
of Scots-Irish descent, who arrived in Florida when Spain traded their
territory of La Florida to the English. The term Cracker in Florida
usage relates to the whip these “cow hunters” used to herd cattle in
Florida’s Palmetto Prairies. Called Quaqueros by the Spanish, these
hardy and hard working Cracker Cowboys helped to shape the history of
Florida, the nation’s oldest cattle raising state. We brew Florida
Cracker White Ale with unmalted wheat, orange peel and coriander and
then ferment it with a Belgian yeast strain to give it a spicy and dry
finish. Perfect for a warm day on the Palmetto Prairie.
