Rush Moving Pitchers 40th Anniversary Ale

Belgian Blonde Ale with Pinot Noir Must 11.9%

In the fridge

Our second Limited Edition collaboration with Rush. After rigorous taste-testing, Moving Pitchers was Rush-approved for a special limited run. This is a Belgian blonde with a Pinot Noir wine must added to the finish. Moving Pitchers comes in at a magical 11.9% and can be aged for up to 5 years. The name is a cheeky play on the famous album cover triple entendre, and the bottle’s label was designed by longtime Rush album graphic artist Hugh Syme.
