Out Friday 9/25- Avocado Honey Ale!


It is time for the return of Island Brewing Co.'s popular Avocado Honey Ale!  This beer has been a HUGE hit with locals and visitors alike, and is released just prior to the Carpinteria Avocado Festival.  This unique beer is complimented with the addition of 60 pounds of locally sourced avocado honey (NOT AVOCADOS!) at the end of the boil process, producing a slightly sweet finish.  Brewed with Superior Pilsner and German malts, Avocado Honey Ale is also lightly hopped to bring forward the delicate and aromatic flavors and aromas of avocado honey.  Hope to see you down at the tasting room for a glass this weekend, and look for special labeled bottles to come in the following week. Cheers! -IBC

OUT FRIDAY 9/4: Cask Conditioned IPA!!!


We are going to be rolling out another cask for September's "First Friday," this time a double-dry hopped Island Pale Ale (IPA)! Along with the usual dry hop additions of American hops our cask IPA also includes an additional hop addition of traditional East Kent Goldings, contributing a spicy flavor so typical of noble hops. Come in and grab a glass with us, we will be tapping the cask at 2:00 and serving until it runs out. Hope to see you then, Cheers! -IBC
