Barrier Brewing Co.

Yes but Rock and Roll had a ridiculous price if I remember. Wasn't it over $20 for a six pack?

 

yeah, i think it was $5/bottle and $25/sixer

 

Saw Suburb w/ waimea at my most local bottle shop (Islip Cold Beer) last weekend. Almost picked up a bottle based on the high praise for the various versions of Suburb I've read on this thread, but didn't because I had no way of knowing how old it was. Now I'm gonna have to go back and hope there's still some left.

 

Islip also had cans of SS C.R.E.A.M. Did grab one of those.

 

SS CREAM developed really nicely. Alcohol bite has backdd off and allowed the tropical money hops to really shine. Love the malt bill they chose for that beer.

 

Nice! Looking forward to popping that can even more now.

 

Whole foods collab coming to bottles



Bottling up some O-Ren Rishi, a @wholefoods Exclusive collaboration. This beer is an IPA brewed with Peach Blossom White Tea from@rishitea. Release this Friday @wfmbrooklyn & @barrier_brewing_co this Saturday 6/11

 

Hope this makes it to other WF stores around the city!

 

Anyone tried the WF beer?

 

Had it today on tap at barrier. Solid. A 4 for me. Tick it off.

 

Yea tried it tn at the brewery. I really enjoyed it. Its not an intense hop bomb by any means but its an extremely flavorful and drinkable beer. The white tea adds a very nice touch that is uncommon in IPAs but works well with the hop bill. Much like SS CREAM, I believe this beer will really open up with a week or two or more. I'll be picking up bottles tomorrow for sure.

 

Opened a bottle and I could smell the peach blossom across the room. Very interesting beer. I could classify this as an APA... but whatever

 

Had it last night. Absolutely delicious. It tasted healthy to me, like a spiked white tea

 

Had O Ren ( love the kill bill reference ) and it was a very unique, the peach and white tea created a mouthfeel that reminds me of the creamy milkshake IPA's but no lactose. Some nice very very subtle dry hop flavor on the front end

 

I liked it even better out of the bottle last night. Great beer.

 

I snagged some O-ren Rishi on tap and a few bottles. Enjoyed the peachy flavor a lot.

 

Super Impressed with the O-ren Rishi. Picked up a bottle at WF Chelsea today and was surprised how much I like it. Going to go back and grab more and some Suburbs Waimea.

 

I'll jump on the O-ren Rishi bandwagon. Picked up a bottle today at WF Upper East Side. Fantastic beer with awesome mouth feel.

 

O-Ren Rishi has really grown on me. This beer is fantastic. I was back up at the brewery today for the craft fair and for a friends birthday for a bit and bought several more bottles. Suburb w/ waimea is also fantastic.

O-Ren has that perfect IPA bitterness/balance with a unique peach/white tea addition that makes this an IPA like any other.

 

Does any one know the Hop bill for These Hills have hops?? Maybe El Dorado?
