    I've heard kickstarter is a good way to raise money for one of these.

    Unfortunately not. It should be ready next weekend. But, we have a pretty awesome Bourbon Barrel-Aged Imperial Stout (it's called Summertime) on tap right now at the brewery if you're looking for a fix.

    It's only at the brewery right now, but we have a few stashed for upcoming special events elsewhere.

    Just got back from ABW. It's crazy that you can get 3 glasses of this for $10. That's a bargain.

    This is a nice, full bodied roasty stout with well balanced barrel characteristics. I found it very easy to drink for being a BA stout. Some of you barrel heads will think its too light on the barrel I think. But I'm impressed with the mouthfeel on this one. Nice and chewy.

    Is Sputnik ready?

    We're having our Sputnik release party at the brewery this Sunday (the 14th) from 12-4pm.

    It'll feature:

    • Sputnik (of course)
    • Our last keg of 2013 Sputnik
    • Sputnik coffee mugs (included with entry)
    • Sputnik bath robes (not included, but awesome)
    • Free donuts from Gourdoughs
    $10 for a mug and 3 drink tokens. All first come, first serve.
