From Goose Island:
A collaboration with Tea Master Doug Palas and our neighbors at Intelligentsia, this beer is a German-style Kölsch infused with the black oolong tea Iron Goddess of Mercy. Brewers Andy Ellis, Joel Becker, and Brian Turner conceptualized this draft-only Chicago offering with Doug over a few pints and some pinball.
Golden Goddess Release Party
Chicago, IL - Beer Release 1/28Time: 7-9pm
Location: Cobra Lounge
Event description:
The brewers, along with Intelligentsia's Teamaster, decided upon a sweet floral, oolong tea - Iron Goddess - named for the Buddhist goddess of mercy, and giver of enlightenment. To accompany the flavors of the tea, they chose a Kölsch so as not to overpower the floral and slightly piney characteristics of the tea. The result is a crisp, fruity beer with brilliant marigold hue. Offer up your glasses to the Golden Goddess, for you have made an enlightened choice.
