If you’re ready for a cozy fall treat with a boozy twist, this Eclipse Bourbon Float is exactly...
Bell’s Light Hearted has all the heart of Two Hearted, but only 110 calories, 4% Alc/Vol.
The eagerly awaited Light Hearted Ale is now available!
A Low-Cal IPA with only 110 calories, Light Hearted is the newest year-round release from Michigan’s largest independent craft brewery.
With 4% ABV, it is the latest addition to Bell’s Hearted family (Two Hearted is available year-round; Double Two Hearted will return in August).
“We did not just set out to make a lighter version of Two Hearted. We wanted to brew the best tasting, low-cal IPA we could. It all begins with quality ingredients. Balance, hoppiness, and aroma are all there,” said Larry Bell, Bell’s president, and founder.
While Light Hearted may not share the exact ingredient list as Two Hearted (Bell’s flagship IPA is brewed with 100% Centennial hops), it does share many of the defining characteristics that make Two Hearted what it is.
“One thing we did not do, was take a shortcut; no corn and no rice. Our goal was to deliver the same quality you would expect from a Bell’s beer, but with a lower ABV and with less calories,” Bell said.
Light Hearted is brewed with Centennial and Galaxy hops with only 110 calories per 12 oz. serving. It cuts down on the things many beer drinkers don’t want, but keeps everything about Two Hearted they love.
This new year-round beer was the first release in Bell’s General Store Exclusive Series; limited, small-batch releases only available at Bell’s pub, the Eccentric Cafe, and its General Store. Focused on innovation, the GSE series serves as a testing ground for new recipes, small-batch re-releases of fan favorites, and other experimental brews.
Light Hearted is now available in cans (12 oz. packaged in 6-packs and 12-packs) and on draft.
Bell’s Two Hearted Ale, the brewery’s flagship IPA, has been named the No. 1 Beer in America three years in a row by members of the American Homebrewers Association. It has been at the top of numerous “Best of” lists and consistently ranks as one of the most popular craft beers on the market.
