Burnt Hickory Ezekiel’s Wheel Bottled

Burnt Hickory Ezekiel's Wheel

Burnt Hickory Ezekiel’s Wheel Pale Ale has been bottled. It will be the third, large scale bottle release after completing a large brewhouse expansion. Cannon Dragger and Big Shanty bottles just hit shelves this week.

As our flagship ale, Zeke (thatʼs what we can it), is a text book example of the word “Bad Ass”. A grainy malty yet wonderfully hoppy ale. Loud and mysterious, Zeke is a wheel that is well rounded and perfect for any drinking conspiracy.

Burnt Hickory Ezekiel’s Wheel is a year round offering by the brewery, now shipping in 22oz bottles, and draft.

Style: Pale Ale
Availability: 22oz, Draft
Arrival: Late January, 2015 (Bottles)

6.5% ABV

Burnt Hickory Makes Official Debut + Launch Party

Burnt Hickory Brewery Logo

On Tuesday, May 29th Georgia’s newest brewery makes its public debut.  The first kegs from Burnt Hickory Brewing have left the brewery in Kennesaw, Georgia.  BSJ is pleased to announced the first launch party.  Those local to Atlanta can get their first tastes of the 5 beers below, each with some brewery descriptions…

Ezekiel’s Wheel.  Pale Ale, 6.5% ABV.  Clear with fine citrus hops.  We just call it Zeke.  Compare to Sierra Nevada Pale Ale.  3 Floyds Alpha King.

The Fighting Bishop.  Belgian Style Tripel.   Made with green peppercorns.  Strong Beligan with golden color and spicy taste.

Big Shanty Graham Cracker Stout  Oatmeal Stout, 9% ABV.  With cinnamon and graham cracker.

Cannon Dragger IPA   Imperial IPA, 8%.  Highly hopped IPA with Simcoe/Amarillo/Columbus/Chinook hops.  Compare to Two hearted/90 minute/Deviant Dales.

The Didjits Blood Orange IPA  IPA, 7%.  Made with citra hops and oranges.

These initial offerings will start hitting tap handles around the Kennesaw/Acworth area in the coming weeks.  The brewery is quite tiny, (about 31 gallons at a time?) so supply is very limited initially until the brewery can grow. Brewmaster Scott Hedeen, Taylor Yates and others will be on hand to chat about the brewery.
