On Cask: 

Stone Arrogant Bastard Aged on OakX2

 

As a prequel to our Stone event presented above, we thought a great appetizer would be a cask of the notorious Arrogant Bastard Ale, aged on oak.  Judging by what's indicated on the cask, this one's got an additional healthy dose of fresh American oak chips right inside the cask.  Double oak! 

Stillwater Existent Ale

Stillwater could be called "The saison brewery", and this dark saison example is no less impressive than the rest of their portfolio.  Deep, dark, smooth with a charred, ashy quality, coffee, pepper, and a hint of smoke.   

 

Stillwater Cellar Door

Speaking of Stillwater, here's another, you guessed it, saison.  In case you missed out on the keg from last week, we've got another one for you.  A wheat based saison spiced with white sage.  Crisp, dry, and earthy.  And yummy.

Bluepoint No Apologies

If you name a beer "No Apologies", it better be impressive, or at least irreverent or insulting.  Luckily, it's all three, and I for one am offended.   

A big, copper, hop bomb of a double IPA.   

Smuttynose Short Batch # 11 Vunderbar

It's always great to see an American brewery take on such a difficult to brew style as a Pilsener. It's clean, lightly malty, refreshing and limited.

Cigar City Jai Alai IPA

 

Perhaps Cigar City's most well know and well received beer.  An impressive American IPA with big candied orange peel flavors, pineapple, and a solid caramel malt flavor to counter balance the hops.
