Trim Tab Brewing Co. is releasing its newest beer in cans, named for paradise and here in time for summer.

The Birmingham brewery's Raspberry Berliner Weisse is hitting shelves in cans on Monday with a new name - the Paradise Now Raspberry Berliner Weisse.

"We chose 'Paradise Now' because it captures the feeling of the beer. It's full of life. It's euphoric," Owner Harris Stewart said. "A lot of pools, beaches, or anywhere beers can be enjoyed are about to get a lot happier."

The beer is a German style wheat beer fermented with raspberries and tart cherries. It's a sour beer, but it tastes less sour and more tart, Stewart said.

"It honestly drinks closer to champagne than beer, which makes it really enjoyable and accessible to a wide variety of people," Stewart said.

The Berliner Weisse started out as a seasonal beer until its sales blew up. Stewart said it sold out at the tasting room within two days of its release, and sold out in the market within two weeks. It's no longer a seasonal - it'll be available all year round.

The release comes just before the brewery celebrates its second anniversary. The weekend of April 8 through April 10, the brewery is holding a party including live bands, food trucks and DJs.

The party includes a sour beer training with Hal Doss of New Belgium Brewing Co. Trim Tab is also releasing a collaboration beer with the local band the Burning Peppermints and a re-release of old favorites including the Cucumber Saison Bulleit barrel age and Pillar To Post with Cocao nibs. Stewart will also be leading tours Friday and Saturday.

The official release of the Berliner Weisse will be held Saturday, April 9 at the 6th annual Girls Inc. Cajun Cookoff.

In October, Trim Tab launched its first canned beer - the Trim Tab IPA. Earlier this year, it started selling the Pillar to Post Rye Brown in cans.

Trim Tab has been rapidly growing in the last year, including three new employees and an 8,000-square-feet expansion of the facility. Supreme Beverage Company is Trim Tab's distributor.
