From Night Shift:
We have a few awesome releases lined up as our event-packed ACBF weekend approaches, including a limited release gin-barrel-aged sour ale named Pearl, and our passionfruit ale, Maracuya. We're also opening the Taproom early (10am) this Saturday and Sunday, with a specialSunday brunch in the works!
Thursday: Pearl Release
Many moons ago, we got our hands on some Grand Ten gin barrels. We filled them with a selection of well-suited beers (including a certain oyster gose of ours) and let them age. This Thursday at noon, we debut Pearl, a sour ale blend that is at once herbal, briny, acidic and spicy, sipping with layered notes of ginger, juniper, and lemongrass. 500 bottles total, $20/bottle, no limit.
For 2015 Barrel Society members, we have a second barrel-aged beer release this Thursday - Hogarth, a strong ale aged in apple brandy and bourbon barrels. It pours burnt orange with a strong caramel backbone, a pleasant rye spice, and an intricate symphony of molasses, toffee, and dark fruit flavors. Hogarth bottles will be available by3pm on Thursday afternoon for members and trustees (will also be on the Barrel Society draft line).
Friday: Maracuya Release
A week later than planned, but it's finally ready! Our latest warm-weather seasonal, Maracuya is a bright, tart ale fermented with passionfruit! It smells like a rainforest, sips with tons of fruity, citrus flavors, and has a pleasant, wheaty finish. We'll have bottles, drafts, and growlers ready this Friday!
