Crouching Tiger (Hidden Poulet) Saison |
|
Brewed with European Pilsner malt, German wheat malt and a hefty dose of turbinado sugar in the kettle, this beer clocks in at over 9% abv. Despite this it has a dry finish and is very drinkable. The traditional Belgian yeast packs this beer with tropical fruit flavors, a mysterious earthiness and an inviting spiciness. In addition, we added grains of paradise, coriander and the peels of fresh clementines. After fermentation and conditioning we then aged the beer for 3 months in a red wine barrel from Tiger Mountain Vineyards before bottling. The barrel aging added a prominent red wine character, a beautiful color, a nice oak backbone and a mysterious mustiness. Vintage 001 8/10/07 |

Mighty Aphrodite Imperial White Beer Cask |
|
This is a bigger version of our Venus (both invoke the powers of the Goddess of Love). Brewed with European Pilsner malt, German wheat malt, unmalted wheat and flaked oats, it is then spiced at the end of the boil with 55 fresh orange peels, coriander and a bit of freshly ground black pepper which adds an earthy character. |
This is a traditional dry Irish Stout - with a few shots of Italian espresso added. It has a deep, dark, mysterious color.
Flavors of espresso and dark chocolate dominate yet a smoky character persists in the background. We nitrogenated it (“carbonating” it with nitrogen instead of CO2) which gives it a wonderful creamy texture when run through a ‘creamer’ faucet (and that very cool cascade special effect!) |

Shakti (Hindu for ‘sacred force’) Saison is a mix of East and West and is brewed with Maris Otter floor-malted barley, German wheat malt, Crystal Wheat and turbinado sugar in the kettle. It is spiced with cardamom and grains of paradise, while the Belgian yeast produces an extremely complex flavor profile with tropical fruit, earthy, spicy notes. The latest installment in the Serenade Series, the yeast was serenaded by the beautiful sounds of the legendary jazz groups, Shakti, who first fused western jazz and classical Indian music. The yeast got real funky – as did the brewer. |

pms Smoked Molasses Porter |
|
(Peated, Smoked, Molasses) Porters are dark,, chocolaty beers and first cousins to Stout. We used some molasses in the boil to add some depth of character and then smoked a small portion of the grain over a peat fire to give it a slight smokiness as well. Don’t let the color fool you, this is a very drinkable beer. |
