Look! Goose’s Madame Rose Is Bottled

This one of my personal favorites. I basically have to trade babies on the black market to even get a bottle. Goose Island just bottled Madame Rose, the brewery’s Belgian style brown ale.  Madame is brewed with sour cherries, and aged in wine barrels. It’s a funky, fun, complex beer. Plus it gives you a one-up for those wine snobs in your life. Brian Taylor from GI is seen here showing the Madame some love.

Goose Island will be announcing a release date soon.

Style: American Wild Ale (w/ Cherries, Wine Barrel Aged)

6.5% ABV

Lost Abbey Gives Birth To The Devil with Track 7

It’s July which means time for another Lost Abbey Ultimate Box Set Release. Track 7 is inspired by INXS’s 1988 hit “The Devil Inside.” So what beer matches this little bundle of evil? A remix of the brewery’s Veritas 006, a wild ale.  The crew took that beer, and added raspberries, cherries and Mandarin orange zest. This baby arrives July 21, 2012. Sold only at the brewery, for consumption on site only.

It is a remix of our classic Veritas 006 aka sangria. We have raspberry and cherry providing the bulk of the fruit texture over a sour yellow base beer. To this we also added some orange peel and freshly zested mandarin orange zest as well. The beer finishes with a nice tannic finish and is truly a refreshing riff on a Lost Abbey classic.

Style: American Wild Ale (w/ Raspberries, Cherries, Orange Zest, Oak Aged)
Availability: 12.7 oz bottles. Brewery only

8.12% ABV
