You’ve heard of craft beer and craft salsa but have you heard of craft beer salsa? Renfro Foods, makers of award-winning salsas known for their unique flavors and other specialty food products, introduced Mrs. Renfro’s Craft Beer Salsa—its 20th salsa— at the Winter Fancy Food Show in San Francisco, Jan. 22-24, 2017, to much applause. It will again be showcased at the upcoming Summer Fancy Food Show in New York, June 25-27, at the Jacob Javits Center.Teaming up with fellow Fort Worth family business, Rahr & Sons Brewing Company, the new Mrs. Renfro’s Craft Beer Salsa is a blend of the usual salsa spices and Texas Red amber lager. The salsa comes with a medium heat profile.“We did our first seasonal item, Pumpkin Salsa, last year China Fermenters Manufacturersand it was a huge hit,” says Renfro Foods President Doug Renfro, “so we wanted to do another one for this fall. As we’re thinking of this, Fritz Rahr was looking to be involved with a salsa project. This seemed like a no-brainer for us to work with a local microbrewery and to do something really innovative and creative like Craft Beer Salsa.”Due to its off-the-charts welcome at the Winter Fancy Food Show, similar to the same reception Mrs. Renfro’s Ghost Pepper Salsa had 10 years ago, “after two hours, we changed it from seasonal to a permanent item,” says Renfro. “Huge major retailers from all over the country kept exclaiming that not only was it deliciousKeg Washers Manufacturers but was super on-trend and wanted to do something which rarely happens—put it in immediately.”“We take great pride in being a locally owned family business, so it was a natural fit to team up with our neighbors over at Mrs. Renfro’s who operate in a similar manner,” adds Fritz Rahr, president of Rahr & Sons. “Chips and salsa are a staple snack here in Texas and Mrs. Renfro’s takes great care and pride in offering up the best salsa in the country, so it just made sense to develop a Texas Craft Beer Salsa partnership. Working with their team on the recipe was a lot of fun and we had no shortage of ‘sample tasters’ here at the brewery throughout the development process. I think we landed on a solid final product and we are proud to display the Rahr & Sons logo on the Mrs. Renfro’s salsa label.”“Consumers generally love to buy from true family businesses,” says Renfro.Packaged in 16-ounce jars, Mrs. Renfro’s Craft Beer Salsa’s suggested retail price is $3.69.About Renfro FoodsRenfro Foods is a third-generation family business founded 77 years ago in Fort Worth, Texas, as a packaged spices and pepper sauce business.
