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.

Thanks to Kai for the share - sweet roasted malty with intense layers of red wine, warming and boosty, cocoa, caramel, dried fruit shred, full bodied, bourbon and lots of red wine oak infused notes coming in, dark sweet warming into the close. Gorgeous.

Dark sweet and roasted malty with notes of chocolate, some dark fudge like sweetness, getting Stonefruit notes of peach and apricot, bourbon kicks in, full bodied, peachy and dark malty warming finish. Different but works well and nicely balanced.

Roasted malts and peaches in the Aroma.
Flavor is roasted malts, faint peaches, dark dried fruits, faint dark chocolate
The peaches are felt throughout the tasting experience but they do not dominated.
Comes off as a bit boozy but nowhere nearly as much as expected. Alc well hidden

Flarra med PQ och MS i Gunnarstorps skärgård. Doftad choklad. Ölen alltså . Klunkar på och känner direkt krämig konsistens i munnen .Alltså som vanligt i detta högkvalitativa bryggeri perfekt kolsyrad .Sen kommer smak av choklad och nån sekund senare bourbon som är helt perfekt i balans. Jättegod.

Flarra på Gunnarstorps udde med P.N. o Mange. Mmmm härlig o fantastisk doft av bourbon in mass. Smaken ja smaken som att få en käftsmäll o ändå tycka att det är fantastiskt. Massaor av tunga smaker rullar fram på tungan med hjälp av små fina jäla bubblor. Så god med lång eftersmak!! Toppen!

Poured dark brown in color.
Bourbon and light wood, some sourness, sherry notes. Weird, not very balanced IMO.

16oz can from Brewers Haven. Orange golden pour, relatively still, a few lonely streams of bubbles. Nice orangey aroma. Taste is mostly oranges, tastes like fresh fruit, some solid pale malts behind. Perfect summer quencher.

Works though.
