Hanger 24 Brewery will be releasing Barrel Roll No 4 (Hammerhead) tomorrow. It’s an American-style Barleywine aged in Rye Whiskey barrels and here are the details from Hanger 24:
Release No. 04 in Hangar 24's exclusive Barrel Roll Series will be available next week! Our Barrel Roll Series has quickly gained momentum, especially after December's Pugachev's Cobra release, and we're happy to be adding another great beer to the collection.
Barrel Roll release No. 04, Hammerhead, is an American-Style Barleywine aged in Rye Whiskey and Bourbon Oak barrels. Hammerhead is a complex ale with layers of spicy and sweet flavors, a slightly bitter finish, 13.8% ABV and 83 IBUs. The beer will be available in the Tasting Room on draught and in 750mL bottles beginning Saturday, March 31st. ($20/bottle, limit 1 case)
A limited allocation of Hammerhead will be pre-sold in the Tasting Room on Wednesday, March 28th beginning at 4PM (while supplies last). The beer will be released in the Tasting Room on Saturday, March 31st at 11AM on draught and in 750mL bottles. *Please note that the pre-sale on the 28th is simply a reservation of bottles. No bottles will be released until Saturday, March 31st. Pre-sold bottles may be picked up from the Tasting Room up to two weeks after purchase (April 11th).
Limited draught and bottle distribution throughout Southern California will begin Monday, April 2nd.
Because Barrel Roll releases are special to us, we've planned a few extra-special treats for the pre-sale and release dates.
