Beerburg Brewing's Mexican Lager. Label approved 21 September 2026.

From the label“This easy-drinking lager gets its name from the purple color the Texas heirloom blue corn imparts to the mash during the brewing process. While the color doesn't last long, it's a fun and exciting part of every brewday. American Mt. Hood hops add cedarwood and floral notes for balance, making this a beer that will keep you refreshed through the hottest Summer days. At Beerburg, we're obsessed with making great beer that's good for the land. That's why we source hyper-local, foraged ingredients and take a hyper-nerdy, sustainable approach to our craft. So you get a taste of Texas in every can, and we get to give back to the land that raised us.”
