It’s a Canadian miracle! We’re happy to announce the final release in our 2018 Barrel-Aged Series:
CBS
CBS was born when we stumbled upon some bourbon barrels that had previously housed maple syrup. We opted to put the same base beer as KBS, an imperialized version of Breakfast Stout, in the maple barrels and, after one taste, we knew we had something special. Rich maple syrup, roasted coffee and velvety chocolate meld together in what can only be described as a transcendental drinking experience.
You might notice that the label is missing a key, iconic element. You know, starts with “M” ends with “ountie.” It’s true – we did make the decision to remove the Mountie from CBS packaging out of respect for the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
CBS will be available in both of our taprooms, on draft and in 750mL bottles beginning on November 1 via an online ticket sale (see below). It will have a suggested retail price of $24.99 a bottle. It will be available everywhere else beginning on November 2.
Current Detroit and Grand Rapids Mug Club members should check their email for member-exclusive bottle ticket pre-sale details. See below for General Public ticketing details.
CBS is the sixth and final release in our 2018 Barrel-Aged Series, preceded by KBS, Backwoods Bastard, Dankwood, Barrel Runner and Curmudgeon’s Better Half.
A big thanks to Transitions Equestrian Center and beautiful Dolce Vita for bringing our horse dreams to life!
