Wicked Weed Black Angel, aged in bourbon with cherries

Wicked Weed Black Angel was the brewery’s second bottle release, just behind Serenity. This upcoming release is a black sour ale aged in bourbon barrels with cherries. Officially the first “Angel” in a series of Wicked Weed Angel releases.

Ages ago, the nefarious Bacilli the Black resurfaced from darkness and infected the Great Angel of Light with an obsidian parasite. A great darkness took over the Angel as she shed her luminous spirit. No longer fit for the heavens, she was exiled to the Woods of Obscurity. With sustenance from the fruit of the wood, the Angel began to forge virtue from the evil that had infected her. After her long respite, she emerged from the wood with a profound new strength and cast Bacilli the Black back into great darkness. Now, known as the Black Angel, she spends her days between two worlds nourishing all who drink…

Wicked Weed Black Angel is available in 500 milliliter bottles, intermittently throughout the year.

Style: American Wild Ale (w/ Cherries. Barrel Aged. Bourbon)
Availability: 500ml Bottles. Intermittent release.

Colorado Cider Releases Two

Colorado Cider Company has just released two new ciders in their home state.

Pearsnickety a seasonal perry made with Colorado-grown pears, serves up fresh pear aromas, sweet pear flavors and a lingering, rain-washed finish. This extra-pale winter offering is made in the fall from tons of golden Bartlett pears produced by growers in Colorado’s famed Grand Valley.

Cherry Glider is a new version of Colorado Cider’s popular Glider Cider that’s made with Colorado apples and enhanced with (but not overtaken by) tart cherries. 

“Like all of our ciders,” says founder Brad Page, “we ferment Pearsnickety to just-about dryness. This accents the fruit flavors, reins in the sugars, and conjures up Pearsnickety’s earthy finish and Western Slope terroir. “

Colorado Cider Company recently finished an expansion, allowing them to grow from 25,000 gallons to 75,000 gallons annually.

Style: Cider (w/ Pears, Cherries)
Availability: 22oz Bottles

A New Rodenbach Emerges

LR_ROD_CR_LABELFRONT_75_USA_V5

If you love lambics,wild ales, and sours, read further. Rodenbach – one of the world’s leading brewers of sour beers is bringing you a new one. Caractére Rouge (Red Character) features red fruits like cranberries, raspberries and sour cherries, aged in oak.

The exclusive RODENBACH Caractere Rouge, with an alcohol content of 7%, is the result of a 6-month maceration with fresh fruit (sour cherries, raspberries and cranberries) of a beer which matured in oak casks for 2 years. After its maceration, the beer is re-fermented in the bottle. Flavourwise this fruit beer has a rather sour taste, but of an exceptionally pure nature. Its light, residual sugars balance out the triangle of sour, sweet and dry flavours. This beer evokes the delicacy and experience of a fresh Burgundy wine. 

Style: Flemish Red Ale (w/ Cranberries, Raspberries, Cherries. Oak Aged)
Availability: 750 ml bottles
Arrival: TBA

7% ABV
