US-based craft brewery Green Flash Brewing company has launched the first United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) certified organic wheat beer.

With 4.2% alcohol by volume (ABV), Beter is claimed to be a full-flavored wheat beer that has been infused with acai berries and black tea.

Green Flash Brewing Brewmaster Erik Jensen said: “We mentioned last year that innovation will be a cornerstone for Green Flash, and we believe Saturhaze and Beter hit the low-ABV craft beer trends that consumers are actively seeking and offer the opportunity to bring new drinkers into craft beer.

“Most importantly, however, we feel that these brands authentically fit the Southern Californian coastal lifestyle that is true to Green Flash.”

The company claims that its Beter beer offers sweetness of acai berry sweetness with hints of black tea and will be rolled out in the market featuring a new, fresh, clean white packaging look and feel.

The beer will be officially released in the market next month and can be purchased at all Sprouts Market locations in California and Arizona and in select stores of retailers such as Ralphs and Raley’s.

The new beer variant will be joining the recently released Saturhaze IPA, which is a 4.2% ABV hazy IPA offering tropical citrus flavours with an extra crisp finish.

Both Saturhaze IPA and Beter will be offered year-round in six-pack 12oz cans and draft.
