Yazoo Creates A Sour Beer Program from BeerStreetJournal.com on Vimeo.
Yazoo Brewing Company (Nashville, TN) is making some changes in 2014. Among those are a few seasonal additions, starting with Yazoo Spring.
Yazoo Spring is a helles bock brewed with German malts, and lager yeast.
It has a nice deep tan color with a slight bready sweet aroma that has a light mouth feel, finishing with a smooth malty and clean hop flavor. Quinn, our lead brewer here at Yazoo, created the recipe and the 6 pack and bottle artwork was taken from original artwork created by Linus’s mother.
To celebrate the launch, Yazoo is throwing a series of parties covering 7 cities in 7 different nights leading up to Fat Tuesday in their hometown of Nashville. Visit www.YazooMardicrawl.com for more details.
Style: Helles Bock
Hops: Perle, Hallertau, Hersbucker
Malts: Pilsner, Munich, Cara Helles
Availability: 12oz Bottles, Draft
New Belgium and Yazoo Brewing have their contribution to Memphis Craft Beer Week: a collaborative sour they’re calling Rufus. After chatting about what they hoped to create, New Belgium sent Oscar, the dark sour base use to build La Folie blends, to Yazoo to be combined with their portion with the end result becoming Rufus – “dry, wild, tart, dark fruit forward with a solid sour backbone and slight caramel malt finish.” Expect to see this beer on draft in Memphis the week of May 5th for Memphis Craft Beer Week with it showing its face in Nashville shortly after.
Style: American Wild Ale/Sour Ale
Availability: Draft only
Arrival: May 2013
