The Lagunitas Brewing Company's Disorderly TeaHouse is a new launch that shares premium spiked and sparkling hard teas that are freshly brewed, slightly sweet and full of fresh fruit flavors. The hand-harvested guayasa tea is touched by the taste of yuzu lemon, raspberry and blackberry, and it applies the brewery's expertise in craft beer to the world of tea.
Disorderly TeaHouse stands out as the first hard tea to be fresh-brewed with premium guayusa tea that's hand-picked by Indigenous farmers from Ecuador. Guayusa was intentionally chosen for its lightly sweet, smooth and non-bitter flavor, plus it is an ingredient that's revered as a source of "ancient energy." The crisp and refreshing Yuzu Lemon Squeeze and Mixed-Up Berries varieties tap into the growing demand for better-for-you alcoholic beverages.
