So Brett and I sat down with Patrick, Tyler and Jonas last\u00a0friday\u00a0afternoon in The\u00a0Bruery’s\u00a0tasting room to kick around some ideas.\u00a0 Work, work, work.\u00a0 I know. I know.<\/p>\n

We hammered out the broad strokes. It’s going to be big, 15%+ and a blend of 2 or 3 barrel aged beers, more than likely one of which will be Bois, a Bourbon Barrel Aged\u00a0Solera-Blended\u00a0Old Ale that was crafted to celebrate The\u00a0Bruery\u2019s\u00a05th\u00a0anniversary. Seemed appropriate.<\/p>\n

We kicked around ideas on how we could incorporate our 5 other clubs (wine, cigars, cheese, chocolate and flowers) into the beer. One thought was to have\u00a0Smokin’ Wood be one of the beers blended.\u00a0 As an imperial smoked porter brewed with\u00a0beachwood\u00a0and\u00a0cherrywood\u00a0smoked malt, and aged in rye whiskey barrels, we all\u00a0 felt that might incorporate our cigar club nicely.\u00a0 We also kicked around the idea of purchasing cacao nibs from one of our featured\u00a0chocoatiers,\u00a0Mindo\u00a0Chocolates, a true \u201cTree to Bar\u201d chocolate maker whose cocoa beans are single origin organic cocoa beans from Ecuador.<\/p>\n

Suffice to say, it\u2019s going to be special. \u00a0It\u2019ll be offered as a Special Offer only to The Rare Beer Club\u2122 and The\u00a0Bruery\u00a0Reserve Society members only in roughly a year. We\u2019ll be sitting down with the boys to taste different barrel blends in a few months so stay tuned as this one develops.<\/p>\n

Prost!
