More Twisted From Boston Beer

Two new Twisted Tea flavors on tap.

Faced with rising competition in the alcohol tea area, Boston Beer Company is poised to introduce two new flavors of its Twisted Tea.

Boston Beer, the brewer of Samuel Adams, has received label application approval from the Treasury Department’s Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau for two new flavors: Green Citrus Twisted Tea and Twisted Tea Midnight.

Midnight is described on the label as a “refreshing hard black iced tea.”

Boston Beer is introducing the flavors amid growing competition and proliferation of alcohol iced teas. Within the past year, Diageo, Anheuser-Busch and Mark Anthony Brewing (maker of Mike’s Hard Lemonade) all have introduced products.
