I've been relatively out of the loop when it comes to releases lately. I know Frangelic Mountain Brown is getting released soon, anything else noteworthy dropping around the midwest? Any brewery only releases?
Sierra Nevada Boot camp! Announcing the 2012 Beer Camp Variety Pack! It will hit the shelves in early to mid-August. Oatmeal Stout This big oatmeal stout is midnight black in color-with a big, roasty, mocha-like aroma. It has a silky body from the use of rolled oats, and a round and lasting finish. Perfect as an after dinner treat. Imperial Pilsner Packing a big hop-forward punch and bright crisp finish, this golden pilsner features a hearty dose of “sticky,” resinous Crystal and Pacifica dry hops, which balance the light-bodied yet complex malt backbone. Floral IPA This unique take on the traditional IPA style pairs the bold and intense aromas of whole-cone hop “flowers” with aromatic natural rose hips and petals for complex aromas and unexpected flavors. Imperial Red Ale This Imperial Red Ale takes the intense hop profile found in a traditional double IPA and turns up the malt. It has big aromatic hop notes of grapefruit, peach, and melon-balanced by a smooth and surprisingly robust malt body
Devil Dancer is arriving this week. But I am awaiting the Sierra Nevada Beer Camp. Last year was bliss. Hope the new variety meets that.
Still waiting for bottles of the JP/Maui collab to make it to the TC location, and I don't think they have seen major distribution yet. Shorts Imperial Spruce just got out there, and they have their Strawberry Short'scake in bottles at the brewery too. I was going to mention the Kuhnhenn Summer Solstice, but I realized I missed it.
