Electrical Professionals Now Have Klein Craft Beer Brewed Directly for their Tastes
For more than a century and a half, Klein Tools has been making tools for electrical professionals that meet the demands of the job. They’ve produced hand tools, meters, testers, storage solutions, and even a bottle opener. While this hints at the recreational side of life after the job is done, Klein hasn’t really met our needs at the end of a tough day – until now.
Now, whether it’s the end of the work day or you’ve finished mowing the lawn, Klein Craft Beer has been crafted specifically to meet the tastes of electricians around the country.
My choice? I’d normally go with a nice Belgian Wheat, but from this group it’s gotta be the Matthias Moonshine (as long as I don’t get caught crossing state lines with it). Granted, since I worked my way from “Pliers”ner to Moonshine, my judgment and taste buds may have become increasingly suspect with each sip.
Take a look at the selection below and tell us what your favorite is!
Klein Craft Beer
Lineman “Pliers”ner
Forged from a strong German heritage (Mathias Klein was a German immigrant, after all), this Lineman “Pliers”ner is as classic as our trademark hand tool for which it is named. Featuring high-leverage hops, this brew has a spicy flavor that cuts smoothly on the palate with a steel-y finish. A truly riveting lager-style beer!
Insulated Pale Ale (IPA)
Though our roots are German, we are still very much an American company, and this Insulated Pale Ale meets and exceeds the standards for American IPA’s. The dual-layers of flavor; thick, bright herbal notes surrounded by bright orange (citrus) characteristics, insulate the taste buds.
Tradesman Pro Bock
Another brew with a distinctly German background is our Tradesman Pro Bock. It is a stronger beer able to carry a lot of malt flavor, with pockets of hop bitterness. The deep amber color makes it easy to find amongst our other brews.
Screwdriver Stout
Notes of coffee, chocolate, and tempered steel gives a precise fit to this Screwdriver Stout. Heat-treated barley provides the maximum roasted flavor, while the dark color of this stout is reminiscent of our Cushion-Grip handles. The bottle cap even has our trademark Tip-Ident to quickly identify this stout (and our other brews) in your cooler.
Mathias Moonshine
Limited Edition! Prohibition came after Mathias Klein’s time, but he distilled a sense of entrepreneurship in the Klein family and this moonshine is our nod to that legacy. We’ve taken the historical approach to developing this whiskey by distilling it in the dead of night (we had to start a 3rd shift just to make this!). Of course, historically moonshine has also been illegal, so that’s why it’s limited edition.
