Friday 11/28/08 Cask Conditioned Harvest Ale!


Hey beer fans, after your fill of turkey on Thanksgiving, swing by the tasting room on Friday, Nov. 28th and try a glass of our Cask Conditioned Harvest Ale. Our harvest ale was brewed with fresh, local, 'wet' hops, contributing a distinct hop aroma and flavor. In addition, we added a generous dry hopping of 'wet' hops into the cask during secondary fermentation to further pronounce a very "west coast" hop flavor to the finished beer. There are only 7 gallons of this unique ale so make sure to stop in early, as our last few casks have been selling out by the end of Friday night. Hope to see you then. Cheers -IBC

Now on Tap: Avocado Honey Ale & London Porter

Just a heads up for anyone not at the tasting room lately, we are now pouring Avocado Honey Ale (again), as well as the first winter seasonal, London Porter. Avocado Honey Ale is a copper colored ale, flavored with locally sourced raw honey from an avocado orchard. In addition, it is lightly hopped to allow the smooth honey flavors to stand out in the finish. London Porter, is a robust-style porter, with a rich, roasty, flavor. Currently, the porter is being served on the nitrogen tap to give a thick, smooth head to one of our favorite seasonal ales. Hope to see you soon, Cheers!
