The Bruery
Regional Brewery
in Placentia,
California,
United States 🇺🇸
Associated with 2 Venues
Established in 2007
Patrick picked up homebrewing as a hobby, later to become an obsession, as a distraction to the banality of law school. Soon he was winning numerous awards for his beers and driving his wife, Rachel, mad with the messes that he would leave on the kitchen stove. Upon finishing school, he took it upon himself to draw up a business plan rather than study for the California Bar exam – a risky endeavor that shows through still today in the creative, genre-tilting beers that The Bruery prides itself on.
The Bruery is founded on the excitement that Patrick felt in those first years of homebrewing and we continue to strive for that same passion in every aspect of our business today. We never stop challenging ourselves to develop distinctive & imaginative beers, constantly pursuing improvement in all that we do. We brew dozens of original beers each year with our list of ingredients and inspirations growing perpetually. Our collection of oak barrels has also become a primary element of our brewery. Nearly half of our beer is aged in wine or spirit barrels bringing forth flavors reminiscent of the Belgian countryside or classic American distillers.

Flarra stor ölorivning med ölsemmelieren på wilhemshill . Vi längtar bägge efter öppna denna öl som vi typ vet är hög kvalitet på. Vi testat ett par redigt dåliga Triple ipor innan .Jo här har vi i doften 🍫 CHOKLAD utav helvetes sant lite bourbon . Klunkar och Satans vad mycket choklad 70 % alltså relativt torr . Efterhand minskar chokladen och bourbon ökar åhhhh jättegod . Kan det blir bättre ? jo lite

pitch black with barrel aged bubbly small head that is very dark brown.
A lot of booze and some coconut in the aroma. also roasted malts, chocolate, rye.
Flavor is really good, roasted malts, wood, whiskey, faint smoked note, booze liqeur feel to it, cause it's so strong. end is slightly boozy and only very little more roasted malty than the initial impression.

bottle from kihoskh
pours very very dark, settles black with a small dark brown head that soon turns into a film head.
really intenes aroma where the first thing i notice is a sweet roasted malty alc. bite, roasted malts, just a lot of roasted malts, and a good dose of alcohol.
flavor is roasted malts, chocolate, wood, bourbon, intensity is high throughout but the end is with a peppery burn added to it. I must say, alc. is very well hidden - most noticeable in the aroma, not so much in the flavor.
Pretty solid traditional imperial barrel aged stout.
refreshing sipper considering all the pastry stuff all over the place.

Wilde Bottleshare 17 juli 2025. Wellicht is dit dezelfde vintage als die ik in 2017 van de tap dronk (bij Churchill's, San Marcos, CA), maar dat weet ik niet zeker. Kleur is zeer donker, maar niet pikzwart. Geen schuimkraag (wel CO2). Aroma is boozy, zoet, chocola. Smaak is zoet, alcoholisch. Brandende alcohol. Vrij volle body - maar ook weer niet moddervet. De hazelnoot is nauwelijks (meer) te bespeuren.

Från flaska på Oliver Twist.
Ganska oaptitligt brun utan skum.
Stökigt spritig, mycket fatkaraktär, kol.
