Bauhaus Brew Labs Kickstarter

I just won a golden ticket apparently.

Edit: If anyone has heard rumors to what that entails or if you have as well let me know!

 

Congrats! No idea what that is.

Do wish they had hit $50k for the year round beer garden, but honestly, I'm still happy with how they've done. Now I'm looking forward to the beer & events.

 

I think you get to tour Willie Wonka's chocolate factory.

 

Knowing my luck it will be something that has to be used when I'm in Colorado in July

 

Ha I'll definitely post something on here if I have to give it up.

 

Any backers going this Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday?

 

I'll be over there on Thursday, likely.

 

Thursday, bringing a couple friends.

 

Wednesday for me

 

Well, the beer is legit, and I totally dig the feel of their building. Honestly, I think this is how you open a brewery. I'll be there often!

 

I thought the beers were well balanced. I won't necessarily seek them out because I didn't think that special. I'll visit the tap room occasionally

 

I was really hopeful that these were indeed their releases. I wonder if they're even aware of the band of the same name?

 

I actually liked Stargazer the best. Cool place, nice people, I'll go again for sure.

 

My impression of the beers for those interested:

On Wednesday after biking, Wonderstuff was crisp & citrusy (yes I read the descrip on the board) yet still had a light cracker/bready character and a subtle lemon twang. This was my favorite.

Wagon Party was most interesting (and my second favorite); the aroma made me expect a wave of bitterness - I didn't take notes nor did I think too critically, but I believe I was smelling pine and a bit of melon, though in the big picture I was smelling hops. The taste was a meld of the above aroma and a distinct caramel-grain character. Not much bitterness given the expectations from the aroma, making for an easy-drinking experience.

Stargazer, as Leos from Lazy Monk put it "It's a good, dark beer". I could smell a subtle fruit and roast quality from the dark malts and yeast (I suspect), reminding me of plums and dates (I dare not say figs). The flavor brought more roast and a soft chocolate/caramel note into play. My third for the night, after which I reached for another Wonderstuff.

I could see my preference changing with the seasons/context, as I enjoyed all three. I don't review in this level of detail much, but for a new brewery with quality introductions like these, I had to spread the positive word. But don't take my word/palate for it -- especially not my palate -- go try them yourself! Cheers

 

My first visit today. Like pscyhotia I biked there, seemed bike friendly. (lots of other bikes/bikers there). They do have flights, $7 for all four beers but since they didn't have sky-five they poured a three beer flight for $5. Liked stargazer the best, but the wagonstuff pils and wagonport lager were also quite nice even though not my favorite styles. (if it ain't opaque...) The taproom was fairly good sized and open to the outside, and there was a good sized patio as well. Not having any upfront info, I was surprised at the amount of seating available and the number of people there. I would not call it crowded by any means, but it was quite well attended.

For a place only open a couple days, I was impressed by the beer, the space, and the service. Worth checking out. Only complaint I would have is that they don't seem to post their food truck schedule anywhere.
