Next Saturday (12/12) at noon Magnify will be releasing there second bottled beer, Flashbacks Are Forever, at their brewery. It is an American Saison aged in stainless steel barrels with Brett for the past 5 months. The brewery is run by a couple of great guys and their family. I am really looking forward to this one and hope you all are too!
Magnify is great. The Eric's are great dudes. I actually just photographed and filmed their place for a documentary. Looking forward to this!
I'll be there to buy this one. I got their last one, which was Search Saison aged in red wine barrels and it was delicious. I really like what these guys are doing and I enjoy that (for now) I can just drive up there and sit in their tasting room (busy but not too crowded), try a few beers and leave with something tasty to go without a hassle. I'm pretty sure these guys are going to be one of the successful newer Jersey breweries.
This beer may be a top 5 beer from NJ for me. Damn good and there's still bottles at the brewery as of this post. They really know what they're doing over there.
I was away this weekend. I hope it's available next weekend. The traffic is too bogus for me to go midweek.
They said the red wine barrel aged Vine Shine lasted a couple weekends so I think you'll be okay. It was pretty refreshing to go to a brewery the day after a release and grab the bottles so easily amidst the ANTEAD mess.
I really liked the last bottle. Funny, I was thinking the same thing about the ANTEAD relapse being the same weekend.
Haha "relapse", but I know what you mean. I'm confused though, when you say steel barrels do you mean a large vat or tank or do you mean barrels? Genuinely curious because I've never heard of stainless steel barrels. Thanks.
We visited today, very nice little setup and the beers were good too. I will be keeping an eye on these guys.
