Firkin Friday with Express Oak Aged YETI!

Happening now:

Interesting

Silas smells a collaboration ale. I smell a 1-Barrel Belgian Brewpub Deathmatch. But I guess a collaboration would be tasty too.

Boulevard Imperial Stout, NOW WITH BRETT

Whoops:

"It is Batch #2 of the 2011 Imperial Stout that exhibits the Brettanomyces trait. In retrospect, we should have called attention to this Brett character on the label. Because we didn’t, and because some consumers got a beer that was different from the one they had a legitimate right to expect, we’re offering a refund to anybody who feels shortchanged, and who can reasonably demonstrate that they did in fact buy a bottle of Batch #2 of our 2011 Imperial Stout."

I'd drink that.

Yeah, Another One

What, one new brewery today was not enough?

Fine, check this out.

Brewery Dada

How many times have I typed this: Yet another Austin brewery on the horizon. Today we have Brewery Dada. Still fund raising and planning and building and stuff. Dada this:

Brewery DADA has been in the minds of homebrewers Annie and Mercury McCall since they started brewing together in 2007. Their brews are marked by an adventurous spirit of invention and experimentation. They liken their brew style and aesthetic to the tenants of the DADA artistic movement, namely, a very specific absence of definitions and functions aligned with the propensity to collage and combine disparate ephemera.

Beer River

Brookston put this up last night. Why are they filming this? Did they know for sure it was going to fall? I'm guessing they tried to right the problem before filming, otherwise I call shenanigans.

What Happened Yesterday

I usually try to at least post one thing per day. Must have been busy, I didn't even post the easiest of posts - a reminder. Ok, here it is:
