Scratch #88 - Cocoa Stout – Slated for a Valentine’s Day release, we have an ambitious Cocoa Stout in the works. Stop by our Tasting Room with your special Valentine and give them a rich, chocolatey memory they’re sure to cherish for years to come! Read more about our upcoming Cocoa Stout below. Availability: Mid-Feb.
Scratch #87 - Bourbon Barrel-Aged Troegenator – It’s been quite some time since our last barrel-aged release. Well, we were so excited about this bourbon barrel-aged version of our flagship year-round Double Bock, Troegenator, that instead of bottling it, we decided to make it available exclusively in our Tasting Room! Everything you love about Troegenator is present – the strong malt aroma, rich chewy body, and warm, tingly spiciness. With that said, it was time well-spent in the bourbon barrel for this already dense, delicious treat. The Nator returns after more than five months from its holiday inside Heaven Hill bourbon barrels. The result is a lush Double Bock with undertones of vanilla, oak, toasted coconut, and tangy bourbon warmth. Released on 1/30/13. Availability: Tasting room draft only. This is an extremely limited batch. Sorry, no growler fills.
The Infüz-O-Matic 5000
From the mind of John Trogner, we are pleased to present an apparatus that will change the landscape of our Scratch Beer series forever… the Infüz-O-Matic 5000.
This prototype was constructed to extract the essence of a variety of ingredients and infuse the bold flavors directly into our beer. Click here for a photo collage of our brewing team adding special ingredients to our upcoming Cocoa Stout Scratch beer release. For this particular batch, we added 4lbs. of cocoa nibs and 2lbs. of cocoa powder per barrel, plus thirty vanilla beans and copious amounts of Cascade hops directly to beer via the Infüz-O-Matic 5000. The Cocoa Stout will be available in the Tasting Room in mid-February around Valentine’s Day. Come taste for yourself and savor the flavor!
