Saturday, 12/3/11 at 6pm will see this years release of Avery Brewing’s Mephistopheles, a big ass imperial stout. I mean that. A 12oz bottle is a full 16.83% ABV.
There will of course be a release party at the brewery in Boulder, featuring a 3 year vertical of this “Demons Of Ale” release. Tickets are $20 for the first 50 people. Vertical tasting runs from 6-7 pm, hosted by Tap Room GM Phil Vaugn.
Bear witness to the 2011 release of Mephistopheles, along with 2 of his prior manifestations! We will conduct a vertical tasting of his 2009, 2010, and 2011 batches, served with decadent edibles.
