So many beers, So little time… Some of California’s most respected vintners worked with Firestone Walker’s Brewmaster Matt Brynildson on something to celebrate! We’ll have that for you – plus some new offerings from Wynwood and Santa Fe Brewing that you’ll want to get your sweaty little hands on.
Wynwood Get Shipwrecked! (Miami, FL) – Wynwood Brewing will be releasing the newest addition to its Shipwreck Series tomorrow, November 5, at the brewery tap room. Wynwood’s San Francisco Belgian Golden Strong Ale is a very special limited release (only 400 bottles available) that was aged for over six months in bourbon barrels – and when it’s gone – it’s gone – so be ready!
An Award-Winning Winter Return (Santa Fe, NM) – Santa Fe Brewing is returning its popular winter seasonal and we’re as excited as they are! Santa Fe Black IPA is a generously dry-hopped 7.1% ABV dark-as-night ale that crosses borders and transcends styles. And it’s out there now – so you know what to do.
Blue Hills Delves Into Black Hoperations (Canton, MA) – Massachusetts-based Blue Hills Brewery dropped something new last week and we’re psyched for them. Blue Hills Black Hops is their popular 6.75% ABV Schwarzbier/Pale Ale hybrid that’s roasty, hoppy, and now available for the first time in cans.
Winter’s Coming (San Jose, CA) – And so isGordon Biersch Brewing’s popular winter seasonal, which is returning to shelves now. Brewed in adherence to “Reinheitsgebot,” the German purity law of 1516 that stipulates the use of only malt and hops and natural carbonation, Gordon Biersch Winterbock is a 7.5% ABV classic, dark, full-bodied double bock that pays homage to a style that was used by eleventh century Bavarian monks as a source of nutrition during winter fasts.
Winemakers Guide Blend in Epic Barrel-Aged Beer (Paso Robles, CA) – Firestone Walker’s special Anniversary Ales are epic, barrel-aged and blended productions and this year, they’ve upped the ante. Fourteen regional vintners worked with Brewmaster Matt Brynildson to help create a beer that is greater than the sum of its parts. Firestone Walker XVIII Anniversary Ale is a massive 13% ABV creation that blended together 227 oak barrels and nine different component beers, and it’s available in select markets.
