Craft Beer Releases

First beer of Sunday after judging beer. Suddenly I'm back at a farmer's market, sampling apples. Our 2000th Brew. Thanks to Ale Apothecary for being open. First beer of Saturday, @cruxfermentationproject Freakcake '19. First beer in Bend by the outdoor fire pit, Sunriver Vicious Mosquito West Coast IPA If you like your copyrighted content to be stolen and used without your permission, while promoting a Happy Hour, then you'll love @distillerybar. Oh and @distillerybar is being reported for copyright violation. And with dessert our Brunch is complete, concluded with Brooklyn Dark Chocolate Stout and Ecliptic Batch No. 4 Barrel-aged Orange Giant Barleywine. Brunch with @eclipticbrewing and @brooklynbrewery has begun. A fun spin on the Bloody'. First beer of the day. Hair of the Dog, Double Barleywine (Port, Madeira, Calvados, Bourbon, Rum barrels). 15.2% Last night's Squash rings. A fun take on the onion ring. Look for this place to open soon. Another hookup from Mason Ale Works. This time they shared Brut Wayne Brut IPA with us. . . . "Dry Hopped with a Blend of Mosiac, Nelson, and Hallertau Blanc for aromas of mango and lychee. A bone dry body with notes of white grapes, passionfruit, gooseberries. Brut Wayne is a balance between the extremes; focused and precise, coupled with intensity, power and flavor. " 7.0%ABV Still technically Winter, even if this Pelican Bad Santa has a Christmas influence. Tried this Mason Ale Works beer, B.A. Baracus. . . . With the following description: “Shut up, fool!” wise words from our favorite A-Team Badass. Just like Sergeant Boscco, this limited Snale Works release has a massive character with a lot going on. This Barleywine is a gnarly 14% ABV, aged in Cutwater Single Malt Whiskey and Bourbon Barrels for over a year.  Rich and full bodied, with succulent notes of toasted vanilla, bourbon, toffee, plums, and black cherries.  B.A. Baracus is sure to be a bottle to hold onto. It’s limited release is one that you will want to experience over and over again. "An elegant IPA fermented with French Champagne yeast, blushing with honeyed apple and ripe citrus aromas. A no nonsense, get-out-of-my-way malt bill sings the parallel harmonies with the hops and yeast. Dry, light and oh so bubbly.  7.1%ABV, 59BU" A great interpretation by Double Mountain with their Brut IPA. Enjoyed at The Shambles. @Reubensbrews "Hazealicious IPA is juicy, with a soft bitterness, providing a perfect balance for a hazy IPA. Tropical aromas, particularly kiwi and passionfruit, come from a bold blend of Citra, Strata, and Mosaic hops. The show-stopping hops are balanced and gently restrained by a pillowy malt body." 6% ABV 45 IBU . . . #photooftheday #beautiful #beerporn #beerstagram #beer #craftbeer #brewtography #craftbeerlife #beerme #instadrink #photography #instamood #canstagram #january #washington #seattle #ballard #reubensbrews #winter #hazyipa #drinkwabeer #friday #instabeer Enjoying this @pelicanbrewing Mother of All Storms via @delimeatsbar. . . . #photooftheday #beautiful #beerporn #beerstagram #beer #craftbeer #brewtography #craftbeerlife #beerme #instadrink #photography #instamood #january #washington #seattle #pacificcity #oregon #winter #stout #drinkwabeer #wednesday #instabeer Enjoyed this while at @dru_bru. Rauchbier. . . . "An amber-colored beer with a profound smoke/mesquite aroma. Applewood smoked malt combine with pilsner, Munich, and caramel malts to create a sweet-and-smoky experience. 2018 Washington Beer Awards Gold Medal Winner.
