Anchorage super limited releases



BRC emails just sent out.  


Anchorage Between The Staves Sour Ale...$12.99
A sour collaboration with Crooked Stave aged in Cognac Barrels.
Sour ale fermented in fouders with 3 strains of brettanomyces, aged in cognac barrels 11 months with a funky bunch of bacteria.

"What would a beer fermented in oak foeders taste like if it were not for Brettanomyces?  I can't tell you...and I'm not sure I'll ever find out.  This creation, which brings together Anchorage Brewing Company and Crooked Stave Artisan Beer Project, is an amalgamation of Brettanomyces, Oak Foeders, and an extensive aging period of 350 litre French oak Cognac barrels with a funky bunch of critters.   I hope your mind is wandering as much as mine is, because it takes passion, devotion and a lengthy time waiting for a creation such as this.  
Enjoy this beer as you would a fine wine, swirl it around in your glass and revel in its beauty.  Let the beer open up as it slowly warms and reveals all the subtle nuances from the temperament of the yeast to the elevated barrel characteristics.
