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.

Independence Brewing Brings Craft To India, With American Ties

Independence Brewing CompanyIndependence Brewing Company will be bringing craft beer to the people of India.  No more boring beer, India.  The first and only craft brewery in the country is on it’s way.  The venture was founded by Shailly Bist and Avanish Vellanki.  Bist will serve as the head brewer.

Cool news for sure, but there is an American connection.  Stone Brewing Co’s Greg Koch.  The CEO and Co-Founder of the California based brewery will serve as a partner and Chief Advisor to IBC.

“I’ve had a chance to visit India and witness first-hand why Avanish and Shailly are so excited, and I have to say I agree with them! There is tremendous opportunity in India for craft beer. I also have to say that I’m really excited about these two guys and look forward to helping them bring Independence from boring beers to India!” said Greg Koch.

The first location for Independence is a craft pub brewery in the city of Pune, in the state of Maharashtra, India.  According to the press release, Pune is a growing technological area.

There aren’t many beers available in India right now.  Seems like Independence Brewing Company (especially with one of Stone Brewing’s masterminds advising) is already a home run.  Anyone know anyone in India to trade with?

Follow Independence Brewing Company on Facebook and @IndeBrewCo on Twitter.

P.S. There is an Independence Brewery in Austin, Texas.  Be mindful of the confusion….
