Lazy Mag Releases More Bourbon Pecan

Lazy Magnolia Southern GentlemanAs Lazy Magnolia begins expanding, they also just recently announced there will be more Southern Gentleman shipping soon.  The brewery has recently purchased more barrels to produce more.

Lazy Mag took their Pecan ale, and aged it in bourbon barrels for nearly 3 months.  (what barrels cannot be disclosed, MS law) What the brewery has to say:

It brings everything that we like about beer and bourbon together in a special way.  The aroma of bourbon fills the nose,the vanilla from the oak rounds out the finish,and the extra months of aging soften and dry out that Southern Pecan we love so much.  In the end, the beer is about as perfect as it can be.

Style: Brown Age (barrel aged)
Availability: Draft only.  Newest batch just released.

4.5% ABV

Duclaw Divine Retribution Limited To 156 Bottles

Duclaw Divine RetributionDuclaw Brewing is on the cusp of releasing Divine Retribution, an imperial stout aged in Heaven Hill bourbon barrels.  It’s limited.   And when I say limited, I mean – like only 156 bottles.

Divine Retribution is a blend – of Retribution, a bourbon barrel aged imperial stout (60%) and the remaining 40% – Colossus – an American Strong Ale weighing in at a whopping 21% ABV.

What happens when a  60/40 blend of RETRIBUTION imperial stout and COLOSSUS high gravity hybrid ale ages for 6 months inside a charred Kentucky white oak bourbon barrel? Divinity.  This full bodied blended stout trancends  all expectations with rich aromas of espresso and dark chocolate, and smooth roasted malt flavor with notes of dark fruit and apples, to create a beer so unique that it had to be…. Inspired by a higher power.  

Availability: 22oz bombers

15.5% ABV
