Approaching their one year anniversary of brewing one­off and sour beers at the revamped

South Slope Specialty Brewery, Hi­Wire Brewing has hit their stride and is building towards

more frequent releases from their wild ale and sour program. To celebrate, Hi­Wire will be

releasing Batch #5 of their Single Barrel Series, Saturday, July 9 at 12pm at their South Slope

location | 197 Hilliard Ave.

Hi­Wire Brewing took a leap of faith one year ago and started experimenting with sours and wild

ales. In addition to their sour and wild ale program, a small portion of production is dedicated to

producing a different line of limited speciality beers which they are calling the Single Barrel

Series. All Single Barrel Series releases are small batches fermented 100% in oak barrels with

mixed yeast cultures, bottle conditioned with brettanomyces, and sold in cork and caged 750ml

bottles.

Batch #5 of the Single Barrel Series is a single malt, single hop Imperial IPA (9.5% ABV)

brewed and aged in a white wine barrel with Brettanomyces for 8 months. Dank tropical fruit &

bright citrus notes from Citra hops blend perfectly with earthy brett funk & oak in this big

complex beer with a smooth, warming finish. Bottles will be $14.

Production of these beers are limited to 120 bottles each and will not see distribution. Join

Hi­Wire at noon on July 9 to get your hands on these special, limited beers.
