Much like the magical movies of our childhood, running a brewery in a town far, far, away with great friends and family can seem like a dream. From sharing a pint with co-workers after a long day on the bottling line, to pouring our beers at the Great American Beer Festival next to my beautiful wife, sometimes the blessings I have received in my life can seem, well…inconceivable. A bold beer that no one has brewed before, this barrel aged double IPA somehow retains its lively hops while combining with flavors of vanilla and oak from our new barrels to create a beer that tastes of fortune and glory.

Muffig hopfiger Antrunk mit holzig, trocken herben Aromen. Wenig erdig, kaum noch hopfig, auf der anderen Seite auch nicht sonderlich aromatisch durch die Lagerung. Meh. 12/9/7/7/8/7

Sampled at 8th Danish Ratebeer Gathering, Ulfborg 2015, day 2. Clear medium to dark orange color, medium sized off-white to lightly beige colored head that lasts for a long time. Aroma is malts, hops, a hint of oranges and slightly a hint of resin. Taste malts, some hops have lingered but it’s no longer recognizable as a double IPA, the barrel aging kind of killed it as happens most of the time with barrel aged hoppy beers. Decent bitterness, but barrel aging hoppy beers? No, doesn’t work for me.

Poured up on tap at the 2014 Papago Hopageddon event where it exhibits a clear copper body that has a thin gold edge and supporting a near white head. The aroma pulses with straight up sweet candied citrus, mango and pineapple and sweetened a bit further by some maltiness. The taste delivers fruity sweet candy like citrus hops as well as pineapple and mango mixed with passion fruit. This has plenty of hop flavor and malt sweetness that team up together to temper what fruity bitter hops are there.

Bottle - Almost sweet fruit like apricot, oak and some tropical hops. Clear copper with a rich huge beige head. Peach, oak, bitterness and a long tropical finish. I like it.
