Tilray Subsidiary SweetWater Brewing Launches Non-Dairy Almond Milk Stout

Canadian pharmaceutical and cannabis firm Tilray’s (TLRY) subsidiary SweetWater Brewing Company has expanded its seasonal beer range with the launch of Non-Dairy Almond Milk Stout, which has been crafted with plant-based ingredients.

The beer features aromas of dark chocolates, milk and coffee, and comes with an ABV (alcohol by volume) of 5.4%. While SweetWater Brewing is a craft brewery based in Georgia, Tilray is involved in the sale, production, cultivation and research of medical cannabis and cannabinoids.

The Brewmaster, Mark Medlin, said, “Using real almonds and all-natural ingredients, we integrated the sweetness brought by the dark chocolate aromas and almond flavoring you find in a typical stout, but offset by the non-dairy ingredients and drinkability. This stout will give craft beer lovers a tasty beer to savor for the fall and beyond, pairing well with the pub or any better beer-drinking occasion.”

The Non-Dairy Almond Milk Stout is available in 6pk and a seasonal variety pack of 12oz cans only for a limited time and is flowing on draft till the end of the year. Tilray’s shares lost 1.9% on Friday. They fell another 0.5% in after-hours trading to finally close at $13.52.

Last month, Bank of America Securities analyst Heather Balsky reiterated a Buy rating on Tilray with a price target of $21.50 (58.2% upside potential).

The analyst said, “We expect Tilray to pursue additional opportunities in the U.S. with a focus on brands versus acquiring certain licenses. We view each incremental transaction in the U.S. cannabis market as a positive catalyst.”

Overall, the stock has a Moderate Buy consensus rating based on 4 Buys and 6 Holds. The average Tilray price target of $19.33 implies 42.2% upside potential. The company’s shares have gained 140.1% over the past year.
