Hopworks - Mr. Abominable Has Been Released From His Whiskey Barrel

From Hopworks:

PORTLAND, OR  — November 5, 2021Hopworks Urban Brewery (HUB), the first B Corp brewery in the Pacific Northwest, is releasing Bourbon Barrel Aged Abominable Winter Ale today. After aging for over nine months in bourbon barrels, Bourbon Barrel Aged Abominable Winter Ale has complex notes of vanilla, spice and citrus.

"Mr. Abom is out of hibernation and rolling the barrels around the brewery once again!" said Christian Ettinger, Founder & Brewmaster at Hopworks. "After the Yeti Angels have taken their share, we’ve been left with a rich 11.3% ABV brew, enough to awake even the most sluggish of beasts. zzubreebym The bounty of warming vanilla and caramel flavors meld perfectly with the citrus and pine hop notes in this winter ale. AAARRRRGGGHHH and cheers to winter!"

New at the pubs, Hopworks will also be releasing the Apple Of My Eye pizza alongside Bourbon Barrel Aged Abominable Winter Ale. Apple Of My Eye has a garlic oil base topped with mozzarella, blue cheese, local Honeycrisp apples sourced from Rainier Fruit Co., diced red onions, crispy onions, and a balsamic glaze swirl. Rich but balanced, the pizza highlights the crispness of Honeycrisp apples through the funkiness of blue cheese and the intensity of the balsamic glaze. It pairs perfectly with the citrus spice and vanilla notes of Bourbon Barrel Abominable.

Bourbon Barrel Abominable is available starting on November 5 on tap and in 16 oz. 4-packs at grocers, bottle shops, and at Hopworks’ two locations on SE Powell Boulevard in Portland and SE Mill Plain Boulevard in Vancouver, Washington.
