Oskar Blues She’Boogie Bop, brewed by women

Oskar Blues She'Boogie Bop

Oskar Blues She’Boogie Bop,  a beer brewed entirely by women, debuts this month.

Oskar Blues brewer Diana Locatelli, brewers assistant Lauren Laquerre, along with Kristin Hubbard, and Sara Laurienti from the cellar created the beer. The base is a cream ale, serenaded by the sweet sounds of Prince, with vanilla beans and lavender added post fermentation.

“It’s pretty obvious that the production-side of brewing is male-dominated. I think ladies-only day was a rad way to celebrate being brew chicks. We had a lot of fun making SHE’Boogie Bop.” Using their collective beer prowess to rock the Lyons brewbarn, they created a beer that’s crisp and slightly sweet, with herbal notes from the lavender. – Diana Locatelli, Oskar Blues brewer

Oskar Blues She’Boogie Bop will be available on draft only starting March 13th at the brewery’s Colorado locations and restaurant locations.

Style: Cream Ale (w/ Lavender, Vanilla Beans.)
Availability: Draft Only.
Debut: 3/13/17

Bruery Terreux Imperial Cabinet, brewed with Jester King

Bruery Terreux Imperial Cabinet

Bruery Terreux Imperial Cabinet has just debuted, a collaboration with Austin, Texas based Jester King Brewery.

Imperial Cabinet is a barrel-fermented farmhouse ale, inspired by the New Orleans Ramos Gin Fizz cocktail.

Since the cocktail uses gin, which has a strong botanical flavor, rosemary, lavender, juniper, and cubeb pepper were added to the boil along with dried orange blossoms. The beer’s tartness and acidity grew over the 10 months in barrels.

During the final weeks, orange peel, lemon zest, lime zest, and vanilla beans were added to the barrels.

Bruery Terreux Imperial Cabinet was fermented with a blend of both brewery’s mixed cultures used for wild fermentations.

Due to pathetic Texas laws, Bruery Terreux Imperial Cabinet will not be sold in Jester King’s home state. Bottles debuted in the Bruery tap room on October 30th.

Style: American Wild Ale (w/ Juniper, Lavender, Rosemary, Cubeb Pepper, Orange Blossoms/Zest, Lime Zest, Vanilla Beans)
Availability: 750ml Bottles
Release: 10/30/15
