http://www.gooseisland.com/pages/event_page/48.php?id=1907 When we set out to make Two More Weeks our dream was to bring you our version of a straight Belgian-style lambic beer. We have been aging this beer since May of 2012 in some of the best wine barrels in our warehouse. The name's an homage to the brewers keeping the marketing and sales folks at bay while the biology and chemistry of the beer did it's thing. Join us at Revel Room to preview the beer and have some fun! 9/4/13, 7-9PM. --- Sounds promising!
But... that's the night of the Deth's Tar release! Also, I know there's a lot of turnover in Wicker Park, but WTF is the Revel Room?
Ahhh... I probably could have looked that up, too. A quote like this, though, and I really feel like they're talking directly to me: "We're old men now," Eisler says. "We need a place where we can sit and talk."
Also, here's to hoping they kept some of this around (and are making/have made more) and blend a gueuze in the furture.
this was a great event! i thought the beer is great! i absolutely recommend tracking some down. free lambic, free food, free poster, free shirt. . .
I was really surprised to meet Andy Goeler and chat with him a bit. Seems like a curious guy, interested and energized about craft beer, and says he (and AB) are happy to let Goose keep doing what it does best.
It won't be regularly available at either pub but they will have the occasional keg to tap. It is a Fulton & Wood series and comes in sixtels, so I can almost guarantee that it would not be offered in growlers.
