Wicked Weed Happy Blending, a collab with The Rare Barrel date set

Wicked Weed Happy Blending

Wicked Weed Happy Blending, a collaboration with California based The Rare Barrel, is set to debut in February.

The Asheville based brewery has put together some pretty killer collaborations recently. In 2016,  it was Juiceless, a hoppy collab with Creature Comforts, which was followed by a wild/sour ale brewed with Switzerland’s Trois Dames. Fans also lusted over Red Atrial, a raspberry filled blend with Jester King.

Wicked Weed Happy Blending is the latest collaboration release, created with California’s The Rare Barrel. Both breweries are very well known for their barrel-aged sours. This release will be no different. Cellermen from each of the breweries travelled to the other’s home base and hand selected their favorite barrels. The chosen barrels were then combined with 3 pounds per gallon of nectarines and plums.

This collaboration is the brainchild of blenders from both Wicked Weed and The Rare Barrel breweries. Cellarmen travelled to one another’s breweries to select their favorite barrels from the others’ collection. They then combined the beer from these barrels with 3 lbs per gallon of nectarines and plums. This combination formed the perfect balance of character and flavor to represent each respective barrel house.

Wicked Weed Happy Blending will be a 500 milliliter bottle at the brewery on February 17th.
