Lilith is a Berlinerweiss with some pretty evil intentions. Our brewers wanted to create a beer that blends the succulent sweetness of pomegranate, also known as “the fruit of the dead”, with the bold tartness of a traditional Berlinerweiss. The result is an irresistibly drinkable beer with a nice bite. It is for this reason that Lilith is named for the seductress and mythical night creature some consider to be the first vampire. Wickedly attractive and dangerously alluring, she is hard to refuse once she sinks her teeth in. Don’t say we didn’t warn you.
Our famous beer began with a trip across Europe, when Goose Island founder (and unabashed beer lover) John Hall took a tour across the continent. Pint by pint, he savored the styles and selections of brews in every region, and thought to himself, “America deserves some damn fine beer like this, too.”
