Half Acre Crafted a Beer for SAIC’s 150th Anniversary
Half Acre, a local brewery founded by SAIC alum Gabriel Magliaro (BFA 2003), will debut a new beer at SAIC’s 150th Anniversary Block Party on Saturday, September 19. DNAinfo spoke with Magliaro about Half Acre and SAIC. The new beer, called Harshad, is a limited edition kölsch—Germany’s version of a pale ale. "We wanted something clean and crisp but that didn't fit an exact style or traditional mindset," kind of like the school itself, he said. Magliaro designed the label for Harshad using the customizable typeface created by SAIC for its anniversary.
