Beer Release: NW: Get It Now … Hebrew Funky Jewbelation Blended Ale
How many of you during Passover or Hanukah were pondering a really good beer? Chances are you forgot about a certain brewery based in San Francisco.
Since 1996 Schmaltz brewing has produced beers that have catchy names like there He’Brew Jewbelation or Coney Island Blockhead.
Today I received word that the brewery is announcing the next wild incarnation in their Limited Engagement Barrel-Age Series. Introducing Funky Funky Jewbelation® and it’s a beast.
… a blend of six Shmaltz beers aged in bourbon and rye whiskey barrels, and dances in at 9.8% alc. Funky Jewbelation® is an expert mashup of Jewbelation 15® (aged three months), Vintage Jewbelation® (aged nine months), Bittersweet Lenny's R.I.P.A.® (aged one month), Origin Pomegranate Strong Ale® (aged 14 months), Reunion Ale '11® (aged seven months), andMessiah Nut Brown Ale® (aged 14 months).
For the brewery this marks another step in the evolution of a 16 year old brewery. And what’s make the beer exciting is the company the beer joins with such favorites as HE'BREW R.I.P.A. on Rye®, HE'BREW Vertical Jewbelation®, Barrel-Aged Coney Island Human Blockhead®, and HE'BREW Genesis 15:15®, a 15% ABV.
And let’s not forget Geektoberfest®. Described as a “barrel-aged collaboration beer brewed by Shmaltz, Captain Lawrence Brewing and Ithaca Beer Co.”
The Limited Engagement Barrel-Aged series not only represents some of Shmaltz's most decorated beers, but also boasts the highest consumer ratings from BeerAdvocate.com and RateBeer.com. The latter recently ranked Shmaltz Brewing as one of the "Top 50 Breweries in the World" for 2012. With the release of Funky Jewbelation®, Shmaltz continues to design unique and sophisticated beers that can stand with the world's best specialty beverages.
As always we ask that you look for this beer and the rest of the Barrel-Aged Series beers wherever you see He’Brew and Coney Island Series beers.
Cheers
