Southeastern Louisiana University is getting a special beer in honor of its upcoming 100th birthday thanks to Gnarly Barley Brewing Company, a locally owned brewery.
Named Lion’s Legacy Lager, the special brew is a craft beer.
Southeastern will always hold a special place in the hearts of Zac and Cari Caramonta, owners of Gnarly Barley Brewing, who met while attending college at Southeastern. Cari Caramonta described the lager as “crisp and crushable, brewed cold for a snappy and refreshing finish.” The beer clocks in at a 5% ABV (alcohol by volume) and is a limited edition.
Southeastern President William S. Wainwright said they appreciate their generosity in helping them celebrate 100 years of educational excellence and look forward to 100 more.
An official launch event is scheduled at Gnarly Barley Wednesday, Nov. 20, from 4:30 until 6 p.m.
