    Peabody’s and Fonta Flora Present Blendiculous #3

    Bottle Release Saturday May 21st 2016 @ 10 AM

    Release at Peabody’s Wine and Beer Merchants Boone, NC

    Bottle Price: Two Options…

    Cash…$20 (tax included)

    Credit…$20 + tax

    The Deets….

    The looooong anticipated release of Peabody’s Blendiculous #3 with Fonta Flora is finally here! This brew promises to be one of the most complex and interesting brews that we have tried to attempt…but with a little mastery from the man with the long flowing beard and the red brewers boots, we have managed to put together the best beer that you will ever put in your face…**completely non-biased statement**…This ain’t just your normal weak, pansy, sour, one dimensional, nerd beer…it’s a slap in the face with the backside of the ring hand, make your “generations” feel it kind of brew...it’s a makin’ sure that collar is feathered and the floss is twinklin’, don’t forget that crease in the cap, kinda brew…It’s Blen F’n Diculous Ya’ll!! Settle on in for school cause it’s time for your lesson…

    The Specs on the beer…

    Soooo what do you get when you take two different beers…a super dry tripel with brett and a tart Appalachian Saison with local “house yeast”….Age them for 6 months in eight “high end” California wine barrels from Robert Craig Winery and Wente, each different varietals, then toss in some local blackberries for 2 of those months to extract some extra wine character/goodness…Blend all that amazingness into two separate bottling tanks (is your head spinnin’ yet?)…THEN blend those tanks as the beer is being bottled for an extra tip of the cap to its namesake? You get the best beer you’ve ever had…period…kiss the ring…

    Tasting Notes: Bright acidity, with very well interwoven notes of white wine (peaches, crisp apples, and wine must) in the initial palate, transitioning to soft red wine notes (dark berry, subtle dry tannins, strawberries) with very elegant notes of blackberry that knows it’s place as a compliment to the barrels…Delicate yet assertive in it’s complexity ....cellar ability? With the amount of layers that have been built on the foundation...what do you think?!

    How it’s goin down…


    The release will begin at 10AM with a 3 bottle limit.
    Numbered Wristbands will be handed out
    Beginning AT 7 AM, to prevent folks from having to stand in line for hours in wait… You Can Not Get A Wristband Early … YOU CAN NOT CAMP AT PEABODY’S, ….as always it will be 15 degrees and snowing before wristbands start being handed out, at which time it will magically turn to sunny and 70 degrees! There will be a VERY LIMITED number of cases set aside for shipping orders…if you plan on shipping please contact us at [email protected] now and be prepared to prepay and have all your “ducks in a row” with us so that we can get you boxed and ready to roll promptly after release…once it’s gone…it’s gone! Please do not use the shipping option if it is at all possible for you to make the release as, again, there is a very limited amount available for this option, please be courteous and let those who absolutely can’t make the distance use this choice!

    Sounds like the perfect time to have a bottle share around the campfire at Julian Price on Friday

    @MrPeabodysBeard I sent you an email (also cc'd to the shipping address above).

    I wish I lived more centrally between morganton/AVL/Boone...

    I think the option to ship is fantastic for those of us who can't make it. I hate to miss out on the festivities, but so glad I can still get my hands on a couple bottles without much hassle or trying to work around a prior engagement. Still hoping I can get out to Boone for the cellar sale. Really looking forward to this!

    That cellar sale... I'm going to plan a weekend around it. I've heard stories of Peabody for years but living on the other side of the state makes it hard to get to. Mucho bueno for this release from them.

    It's pretty crazy how good this beer sounds. Love the way the label turned out as well.
