Firestone PARABOLA | At Last!

The first thirty guests at the Firestone Beer Tasting on July 15th will get to sample this fantastic stout. Call for your reservation today - $15 each.

Looks like a deep impenetrable black that pours thick and viscous with a small sudsy head.

Smells like an oak forest with vanilla & earth. Sweet figs and currant are noticeable then the vanilla takes over as the beer warms up.

Taste is totally balanced , no one flavor over whelms the next. What a nice change from most big releases. The flavor blend is oak, vanilla, bitter espresso, fig and cherries.

Feel is rich, creamy and buttery but not heavy. This is a great beer but unfortunately in very limited supply. We're saving the bottles we have left for our beer tasting on the 15th. Hope to see you there!

Triple Karmeliet $11.99 - 750 ml Karmeliet Tripel

Still brewed to an authentic beer recipe from 1679 originating in the former Carmelite monastery in Dendermonde. Written over 300 years go, this recipe describes the use of three kinds of grain: wheat, oats and barley. Voted Best Belgian Triple Ale in the world at the 2008 World Beer Challenge, London England. This so good you have to try it to believe it.

Five new brews from the Bruery:

ORCHARD WHITE $8.99
An unfiltered, bottle conditioned Belgian style wit bier. This hazy, straw yellow beer is spiced with coriander, citrus peel and lavender added to the boil. A spicy, fruity yeast strain is used to add complexity, and rolled oats are added for a silky texture.

SAISON RUE $13.50
An unfiltered, bottle conditioned Belgian-French style farmhouse ale. This is a beer of complexity with malt rye, spicy fruity notes, biscuit like malt backbone and a slight citrus hop character. This is a beer meant to be aged and as with most Saison Rue is ambiguous unto itself , as it is a different beer when fresh and when aged.

TRADE WINDS $10.99
A summer seasonal Belgian-style Golden Ale with a Southeast Asian twist. Instead of using the normal candy style sugar ( which is typical) rice is used in the mash to lighten the body and increase the gravity, and spiced with Thai Basil. This is an aromatic beer digestible and complex made for the lazy summer evenings.

SAISON DE LENTE $10.50
A spring Saison that is light blonde in color with a fresh hoppiness and a wild and rustic Brettanomyces character. Lighter in color than the Saison Rue, yet equally complex in its own way. Perfect for warmer weather.

COTON 2nd Anniversary Bourbon Barrel Aged Ale $22.99
Pours a murky brown with some red highlights and just the slightest bit of off white head. Smell is lots of bourbon , caramel malts, toffee, dark fruits and some vanilla. Tastes is also bourbon driven with vanilla that works very well with the base bringing in brown sugar, toffee, plums and dark fruit. Mouth feel is full bodied with light carbonation. This is also and age able brew that will only gain complexity with age.

Two new arrival from India:

YETI (lager) $3.25 Yeti Beer Bottles

A straw yellow with a nice aroma of honey, yeast, banana, orange and grass. The taste is similar to the nose and the feel is light and a great match with Indian food.

TAJ MAHAL $3.50 Taj Mahal Beer

Pours a light gold with very little white froth. Aromas of banana, honey, orange, grain, but smooth flavors of all the aromas throughout. This is pretty much a malt profile lager with no hops to speak of.
