Forbidden Root (2018)

Dude, if you came to the shares you can hear me tell your jokes a couple weeks early and in person.

 

Lol! Everyone knows he’s not coming!

 

That wasn't a joke. You can't name a beer named that without actually having the drinker contribute in some fashion.

 

Fine. My original joke was funnier anyways.

After the patron orders a “Some Assembly Required” @KrajDoesBeer pops up from behind the bar and throws water, yeast, hops, grain and some blackberries at you.

Soooooo..... about the share. I’m tempted to bring six beers again. Does that make me a bad person?

 

not at all.... i cant decide what to bring yet!

 

I can't take the next day off this time, so yes.

 

@Quilentro unfortunately I will not be attending the May 2nd share. Something about the 30th birthday being an important one and I should spend it with the one I love...yada yada yada. I'll be back in action in June.

 

Wait, wait, does this mean that we (...I?) am not “the one?”

This is going to take a while to process.



Happy Birthday, sir! We’ll miss you at the share, and I’ll ask @KrajDoesBeer to earmark the “cuvée de Whale - May 2018” for you.

 

I'm hoping June is my month...

 

Great to find the hefe in the wild.

Real strawberry, subtle basil, and fantastic feel.

 

Today...

Canning went great..... even tho event starts at 4 I should have all 5 new beers on by open.

Also I should be ready to sell cans by 12 as well. Not going to post to Social Media but if ya come in before you can scoop them!

New beers-

Bier Flavored Beer- Munich Helles.. Nicks backgrounds is in Lagers and we always need one on for our pub. So this will be a rotation of different Styles of Lagers from anywhere!

Wagon Wheel- Took the recipe of Power Trip and used an expiremental yeast strain and hopped it over 5 lbs per barrel! 8.2% that’s not boozy at alllll!!

Breeze off the Pond- a brand new saison that came out creamy, hazy, peachy and my fav of the 4 new beers! Very excited.

Chalet- Alpine Farmhouse Ale that is brewed for CBC in Nashville. It will be in the hospitality tent for River Malts out of North Carolina. It’s an herbal explosion.

Guest Taps for today.

Logsdon Fams Zuurprium Barrel Aged Tart Plum Ale. This beer is awesome. My buddy Al who distros Logsdon threw me a bottle, i tried it and instantly asked for a keg.

Pipeworks Barrel Aged Coffee Break Abduction- again PW hooking us up!

Hubbard’s Cave One Hop Mosaic IIPA! It was kegged last Thursday!

Come on by!!!!

 

Wow - this all looks great. What’s the flavor profile on Wagon Wheel? Besides, you know, an aroma akin to a bouquet of dogwood flowers.

 

Hell yes I am stoked.

 

Yes. Gonna do my best to swing through today.

 

@KrajDoesBeer I haven't been to a can release in a while, do we think this batch will last through tomorrow? I know many of the recent releases have lasted quite a few days, but didn't see a batch size on this.

 

@KrajDoesBeer
Nice gesture to have the beers available early.
Much appreciated.

Also agree on the Logsdon Plum. Delicious

 

thanks!

it should last easily to tomorrow- limit is 3 for today! also most cases we have ever had in house. ill hold a cpl cases if somehow ppl miss out next day or two and it goes crazy!

Cheers!
