From Chuckanut:
The holidays are here, and winter is on our doorstep, that’s why Chuckanut Brewery is getting ready! Stronger flavored and darker colored beers are the best when enjoyed in front of a cozy fire and Chuckanut has beers coming out in November and December with just that request. First up will be Rye Lager, brewed with Rye malt for a more hearty and spicy flavored lager. Mexican Style Dark Lager is a darker rendition of Chuckanut’s regular Mexican Style Lager. The Dark Lager is deep amber in color with bigger malty flavors but the same crisp, bright finish as the regular Mexican Style Lager. For the first time this year Chuckanut has brewed its favorite Stout. Dark, full-bodied and rich, this export style Stout is sure to warm you up on a cold, wet day or night. And everyone loves Chuckanut Dunkel Lager with its chocolaty, coffeeish flavors and clean bright finish. But that’s not all, Chuckanut has brewed a new Citra Pilsner, slightly bigger and bolder in aroma and taste than the well-loved Citra Leaf Pilsner. This rendition uses the whole hop cone not just the leafy part of the hop plant. The cone holds more of the essence of this fruity, citrusy, spicy hop and imparts those flavors in the final pilsner pour.
Even though winter beers are sometimes darker and more full-flavored, Chuckanut makes sure they finish crisp and clean. This is a result of the Chuckanut methods of the brewing process and attention given to fermentation. Even though these darker beers have a bolder color you can rest assured the beers will be crispy.
Rye Lager is great with roasted meats and braised cabbage. If you are looking for something to pair with your enchiladas or mole chicken, pick the Mexican Style Dark Lager. And if you want a beer to pair with your stew, Chuckanut Stout will be perfect. Chuckanut Dunkel Lager is a hit with any dessert while the Citra Pilsner is the perfect pairing with coconut fish curry. Or if you just want to cozy up to the fireplace, pick any of the Chuckanut beers that are on tap in the South Nut Tap Room or your favorite pubs and restaurants. Heads up, Chuckanut just got a new 6-head canner and will introduce cans to the NW region in 2025, watch for them in stores and bottleshops!
