2012 Old & In The Way Barley Wine Released

We have just released our 2012 Barley Wine.  We have a limited 170 case

release of 22 oz bombers and only 24 five gallon kegs.  We went with the

traditional English Style Barley Wine with an Oak finish this year.  We decided

to forgo the Bourbon barrels and allow the true malt character to shine.

 

Flavors of toffee, treacle and caramel emerge as the beer opens up. 

Enjoy this beer a little warmer to fully appreciate the depth and complexity

 of flavors in this beer. Brewed to be enjoyed as a sipping or fireside beer. 

 Share one with a good friend.  11.0% Alc. by Vol.

   

 

HOPPY HOPPY JOY JOY..............

Well Steve has found a great way to spend a day having fun and actually creating some interesting liquid libations in the process.  Steve and James Costa (Oakland Brewing Company) http://www.oaklandbrewing.com/ have teamed up to collaborate and produce some new and interesting beers for the local Bay Area market.  The first release is a Double IPA named Hoppy Hoppy Joy Joy, Exactly how we felt the day we got together and brewed it. 

 

All the upcoming batches will be brewed at Schooners Grille and Brewery in Antioch, http://www.schoonersbrewery.com/  (James' other day job!!).  The max batch size will be ~15 BBL's and we will be releasing draft only versions of the upcoming project beers.

 

Batch 1:

Hoppy Hoppy Joy Joy

9.1% ABV with bucco IBU's and packed with Columbus, Citra and Simcoe hops.  It is dankity dank you can take that to the bank.  Total release was 6 BBL's so if you see it you better enjoy it cause it won't be there long!!!

 

Batch 2:

London Calling Dark Mild

Scheduled to be brewed the first week of 2013, target of 3.5-3.8% ABV but loaded with delicious malt flavors.

Aphotic Baltic Porter

Coming very soon to a draft handle near you!!!!

Our most recent batch of Aphotic Baltic Porter

has just been transferred into kegs.

This year we have only put one bourbon barrel of Aphotic

away for aging, the rest of the batch is being released now.

Rio d'Oro our Belgian Style Golden Strong Ale has been released in 22oz bombers as well as 5 gal kegs.

Old and In The Way Barley Wine

IT'S HERE.....................

After several months of barrel aging we have declared Old & In The Way Barley Wine ready for release! We have a fairly limited supply available. In total, 236 cases of 22 oz bombers were produced, as well as a limited supply of 1/6 BBL kegs. Look for the bottles at your local craft beer supplier. The draft version will be making special appearances over the next few months. Two batches were brewed and both were barrel aged in 12Yr Heaven Hill Bourbon Barrels. The first batch was a more traditional English Style while the second batch leaned a little more toward the US style. In the end however they were both blended together to produce something a little more High Water style. We hope you enjoy our third new release of the year, 2012 is going to be a fun one!
