Coney Island Lager To Go National

Beer Advocate Magazine has reported that the Saratoga Springs based Shmaltz Brewing Company is planning to expand both the varieties and availability of local favorite Coney Island Lager:

The national launch of Coney Island will feature its self-titled debut offering and four craft brewed lagers including Sword Swallower (May 1st), Albino Python (May 1st), Human Blockhead (draft only, summer '08) and Freaktoberfest (September 1st - Halloween).

Schmaltz (which also makes the popular HE'BREW Beer) is not simply cashing in on the Coney Island name; a portion of the beer's proceeds directly benefit Coney Island USA
