Unfiltered 32/50 Kolsch

So we’ve been wanting to not filter the kolsch for a long time and we’re finally doing it! Why? Not filtering out the yeast and hops gives the beer a bigger profile yet still delicate and not overbearing. So incredibly fresh tasting, pilsner like in my opinion and super clean. We did let it bright out a bit longer to help the yeast drop out so it is only slightly cloudy. This unfiltered kolsch is now my go to beer it’s that good. If everyone agrees we’ll keep it up for a while (so please agree!).

Harold and Maude Beer Series.

My favorite movie of all time and now beer!

Harold, an American Stout, debuts this week.  He’s got a dark side but really he’s quite sweet. Creamy, roasty and so easy to drink.

Maude will be next and there’s a little debate as to exactly what kind of beer she is. Either Black IPA or Imperial Red, time will tell.

Then there will be a combined finale of Harold and Maude. Too early to tell on that one.

Enjoy our first ever series dedicated to a classic movie with the best soundtrack. In fact I recommend drinking these while listening to Cat Stevens- brings it all together.

Cheers!

For several reasons our schedule for Blackbeerd was a little later this year then last. The plan is to release this years version in bottles on Sunday, February 28th at the Charleston Beer Exchange. Very limited draft will be featured as well, more info at that later. Barrel Aged Blackbeerd will makes it’s appearance sometime mid-March. This years version is aged in Buffalo Trace barrels for a bit longer period of time.
