Council Of Ni! Can Release
Council Brewing Co. Collab:
To appease the Council of Ni! we have partnered up with our lovely friends at Council Brewing Co to make a fun take on the Belgian Wit style. We are using some very cool Norwegian Yeast from Omega Yeast Labs, and we certainly cannot forget the shrubbery! We will be using a delicate amount of elderberry (you, know how your mom smells), and some white sage (because it’s San Diego).
Release Party:
We’ll have to watch a movie right? Can you guess which one?
Arrive by 6pm to get grab a pint and your 4-Pack of cans, and to get a good view.
NI!
Collab Can Release: Marzen Of Our Lives w/ Doug Hasker
Like Grains Through the Mash Tun of Time:
This is The Marzen of Our Lives….
Join us on the last Friday in March (3/30/18) as we drink delicious beers, watch soap operas, and enjoy some snacks.
We love collaborations, and we love taking the time to improve our take on any style. Few people in San Diego have had the opportunity to contemplate the Marzen style than our lovely friend, Doug Hasker.
Doug has brewed many a Marzen during his tenure as head brewer for a prominent lager brewery in town. When we sat down to discuss recipe ideas for our monthly collaboration/can release, he mentioned that, given the opportunity, he has a lot of thoughts about what he would do differently with the marzen style. We are excited to share that with you.
As for the beer: we wanted to brew a beer that showcases high quality German malts, with a hint of floral hop character. We also wanted the beer to finish dry, so that the drinker could enjoy the sweet taste of the richer malt profile, without the beer actually being sweet/sticky (in other words, we love dry, clean finishing, and refreshing lagers).
This light amber colored, malt forward beer is everything we could have dreamed of… and so was the opportunity to brainstorm, work(??), drink beers, and talk life with our friend.
As for the name: we’ve had some wonderful conversations over the years regarding life, time, friendship, the industry, beer styles, etc… We share similar views about many of those things, so we wanted the beer to reflect that somehow. I revel in the opportunity to turn a thoughtful discussion into an irreverent conclusion, so there you have it.
El Matador Can Release Party
Would you say you have a plethora of love? Do you even know what a plethora is?
Would you like to drink a delicious beer and not even bother debating whether it is a Black IPA or a Robust Porter?
Would you like to eat some candies named after some book, and watch a spoof that takes its name after the same?
This is a beer and a day dedicated to our friend Jeff McCue. He left a whole lotta love and good vibes behind for us. And he also left his homebrew recipe book.
We pulled this recipe, his wife Betsy’s favorite, and brewed it to celebrate Jeff.
Join us on Friday, 2/23/18 all day as we celebrate the one and only Jeff McCue.
The Movie will kick off at 6:30pm
