There's more beer news brewing out of Goose Island Beer Co. as the company finds a way to capitalize on its success with Green Line pale ale.

The Chicago brewer, now part of Anheuser-Busch InBev NV, has crafted 312 Urban Pale Ale, a new variety of its signature 312 Urban Wheat Ale. The new brew makes its national debut on March 12 — get it, 3/12?

It's one of at least three new beers Goose Island will release this year. Two others are seasonal ales, Endless IPA and Rambler IPA.

Goose Island recently announced it was increasing production of its popular Bourbon County barrel-aged beers by leasing a 130,000-square-foot warehouse in West Town.

312 Urban Pale Ale is the first nationwide release for Goose Island since it began distributing across the country in 2012.

Goose Island's decided to make a broadly available pale ale based on the success of Green Line, which is only available on draft in Chicago, said Todd Ahsmann, 312's brand manager.

Goose Island CEO Andrew Goeler said the brewer's Fulton Street facility can barely keep up with demand for Green Line in Chicago so it's not possible to make it available outside the city.

312 Urban Pale Ale will be brewed at Anheuser-Busch's Baldwinsville, N.Y., facility where 312 Urban Wheat Ale is made. 312 Urban Pale Ale's labels and packaging will differ slightly from its sibling.

Coming later this year are the replacements for Summertime and Harvest ales. Endless IPA will debut in April to relieve Summertime Ale while Rambler IPA, a red ale, will be released in August as a substitute for Harvest Ale. Goose Island already released Ten Hills Pale Ale, the replacement for Mild Winter Ale, in December.
