From The Bruery:
It's time for another limited pilot batch to be released at the Tasting Room!
As we continue our series of experimental pilot batches, Andrew Bell, who you may already know from homebrew circles in and around Los Angeles, has prepared a very special tribute beer. Andrew started working at The Bruery as a brewer and was recently promoted to Experimental Brewer.
Andrew's beer was made in memory of Walt Powell, who passed away on June 4th, 2013 at the age of 33. Walt was a craft beer fixture in Andrew's home away from home of Texas, and was a big force on RateBeer.com. Walt was a fan of Orval, a brett-conditioned Trappist ale so this dry, peppery beer was made as a tribute to him.
Andrew elaborates:
Walt is a 7% ABV dry-hopped, funky saison. You can come join us and raise a glass in Walt's name on Thursday, 2/20 from 6-8PM when Andrew will be at the Tasting Room to answer questions about this beer and hand out high fives (not to mention signed headshots. Because we can.)
More specs:
ABV - 6.97 %v/v
Specific Gravity - 1.00173
pH - 4.39
Color - 9.1 SRM
Bitterness - 27.2 IBU
The rest of our schedule for pilot batch releases during February is as follows:
Thursday 2/27 Chupacabra Quinceañera by Sean Flannery:
A refreshing 100% Brett fermented blonde beer bursting with clean tropical aroma from the unique brett strain used for fermentation. These notes are complimented with the subtle use of Simcoe and Amarillo hops, which add layers of tangerine and passionfruit.
Bonus: we have one more batch in progress coming up from brewer Stefan ... we just have to be patient on the yeast!
