Counterbalance Brewing celebrates three years, February 16th & 17th, with the release of Flight Risk Barley Wine.

January is almost over, so it's time to start adjusting your resolutions while planning your weekends in February. 

Celebrating their third year, February 16th and 17th, Counterbalance Brewing has announced a commemorative release, available in limited quantities on the day of the party.

The celebration will include the release of our third anniversary beer, Flight Risk Barley Wine, additional limited bottle releases from the cellar, food trucks and merchandise giveaways through the weekend. Initially available only at our taproom, Flight Risk is American-style barley wine with flavors of pineapple, stone fruit and caramel with a dry finish. Flight Risk Barley Wine (11% ABV) will be released both on draft and in 375 ml bottles.

In addition to Flight Risk Barley Wine, the brewery is releasing their 2nd-anniversary ale, Big Bad Wolf Dark Strong Ale, which has been hibernating in oak barrels since it's birth last year. But the brewery hasn't settled on just anniversary releases in limited amounts. The brewery is also set to release a limited amount of 4-packs, which also include 1 bottle each of 2Bar Spirits bourbon barrel-aged Kushetka Imperial Stout, Big Bad Wolf Strong Ale, Oak barrel-aged Big Bad Wolk, and Flight Risk Barley Wine. All of which goes on sale at 3 pm for $35 each.
