Twin Elephant Brewing to open

New Shimmy Ye is quite tasty. There is a bit of a hop burn in the throat though

 

Should be solid next week when the hops settle out

 

We also have a couple of events coming up next week. We will showing our faces and suds on Thursday at Taphouse 15 for NJCB Night on Thursday 3/1 as well as the Morristown Big Brew Festival on Saturday 3/3. We will most likely be serving a "Lil' Shimmy Ye'" American Pale Ale variant conditioned on Pineapples, Mangoes, & Madagascar Vanilla Beans as well as either one of our upcoming IPAs and/or stout Deserted Village conditioned on Bourbon Barrel Aged Coffee, Torched Cinnamon Sticks, & Vanilla American Oak Chips.

Nice... 1st anniversary Lil Shimmy Ye coming up.. that was delicious.

wondering if we see that sour pineapple bottle drop tomorrow... gotta be coming soon. and with only 2 new beers this weekend (as opposed to the more typical 3-4, it could mean a can as well...). Pure speculation though...

 

I'm curious to see how Fratz wil be. Haven't had a lot of blueberry-type beers, besides a few Cascade (I think). Don't think I've ever had a Brett/blueberry combo.

 

They just got label approval this week. Figure next couple of weeks.

In the Secondary (coming up)
Name TBD - Brown Rye
Tuxedo Bulldozer - American IPA
Lil' Shimmy Ye - American Pale Ale

 

This variant of Lil Shimmy is pretty good. Was a little weary of the vanilla but it adds a smooth sweetness with the mango that is unique. Fatz is drinking real nice too

 

I really enjoyed the variant. Sweeter than the base and the mango and pineapple blended really well with the vanilla. It would be great if TE canned the variant!

 

Yes please

 

Congrats to them for winning the people's choice award at the Morristown Big Brew Festival over the weekend!

 

Cans coming!

 

Just came to post the same thing. Any idea what the cans are?

 

They seemed to be intentionally mysterious on that front

 

I can tell it's going to rain and I won't be looking under my bed.

Well deserved for TEB. They've been on a real roll since they upgraded their brew kettle.

 

The label is the same color they used for Whammy but I suspect they're canning something else.

 

That's their generic labels and then put another sticker in the middle with the beer name

 

This will be my first time trying to grab their stuff canned. Is the secondary listed in the week prior's email usually a good indication? If so, it could be LSY, Tuxedo Bulldozer, or an unnamed Brown Rye.

I also scanned some of their other recent emails and didn't notice them announce that Here There Be Monsters or Gathering Clouds available (but I know GC was at the Taphouse 15 event and Big Brew Beer Festival - so I'd imagine that kicked).

Guess we'll find out soon!

 

Think you're gonna do pretty well here
