We’ve got a heck of a release week with FOUR new ones destined for our taps (and bottles to-go) this Friday! Third up is our Midwestern Manhatten, followed by two other barrel aged variants of our Imperial Brown, as well as our Strawberry Kiwi Wizard!
-Rubus Rye, American Rye BA Imperial Brown W/ Blackberries

• Tartouillat, Caribbean Rum BA Imperial Brown W/ Cherries

Smooth, rich, full bodied, and packed with notes of sweet caramel malts and a light touch of chocolate, our Imperial Brown Ale was destined for barrels from the moment it was brewed. Choosing the perfect barrels to age in was quite the conundrum, so in classic Confluence fashion we decided to try them all! This version spent a year in bourbon barrels over a small mound of cherries, developing the perfect boozy base to create a beer homage to classic whiskey cocktails. With the help of our friends Mike Gauthier and Derek Frodl from The Winchester Public House, we came up with a blend of herbal ingredients to give us just the right touch of aromatic house-made bitters to balance out the sweetness of the cherry-laden brown ale. Finished off with freshly zested orange, this version makes for a perfect nightcap–just like the cocktails that inspired it.

Get them in the taproom, or place an order for curbside pickup!

-Rubus Rye, American Rye BA Imperial Brown W/ Blackberries

• Midwestern Manhatten, Bourbon BA Imperial Brown W/ Cherries, Oranges, & Herbs

Smooth, rich, full bodied, and packed with notes of sweet caramel malts and a light touch of chocolate, our Imperial Brown Ale was destined for barrels from the moment it was brewed. Choosing the perfect barrels to age in was quite the conundrum, so in classic Confluence fashion we decided to try them all! This version, named after a French cake made with cherries and rum, unsurprisingly spent its year in Caribbean Rum barrels. Bright, tart cherries are the star of the show here, grounded by the sweet hints of rum and the caramel malts of the brown ale, whose body and depth create a simple and satisfying take on a classic dessert.

We’ve got a heck of a release week with FOUR new ones destined for our taps (and bottles to-go) this Friday! First up is our Rubus Rye, followed by two other barrel aged variants of our Imperial Brown:
-Tartouillat, Caribbean Rum BA Imperial Brown W/ Cherries

• Midwestern Manhatten, Bourbon BA Imperial Brown W/ Cherries, Oranges, & Herbs

Smooth, rich, full bodied, and packed with notes of sweet caramel malts and a light touch of chocolate, our Imperial Brown Ale was destined for barrels from the moment it was brewed. Choosing the perfect barrels to age in was quite the conundrum, so in classic Confluence fashion we decided to try them all! This version spent about a year in former American Rye barrels, but we didn’t want it to get lonely, so we made sure it spent the time with a whole bunch of blackberry pals. Blackberries and rye have a long history, so we aren’t exactly reinventing the wheel–but the jammy tartness plays so well with rye spice, warm oak, and sweet caramel malts of the brown ale that this just might be our favorite take on the classic combination.

The Strawberry Kiwi Wizard makes a return to our taps as the first of FOUR releases this Friday! Grab a glass or a 4-pack, and make sure to check out the other releases. We’ll have three barrel aged variants of our Imperial Brown available!

When humans first began brewing beer, the science behind fermentation was not well understood and probably seemed a bit like magic. We now know that around 1000 AD in Goslar, in present-day Germany, lactic producing bacteria from the grain and air combined with the salinity of their local water source to help the brewers produce a tart, refreshing brew that we call Gose (GO-zuh). In conjuring up a plan for this beer, we honored that natural sort of magic by culturing lactobacillus organically from our grain to quickly sour a whole batch of beer. The resulting brew retains the magic of the original, with a citrus-like tartness and minerality that awakens and refreshes your palate with each sip. Of course any wizard worth the name has more than one trick up their sleeve. In this case, The Wizard has summoned hundreds of pounds of strawberries mixed with kiwis to impart a balanced sweetness and create an invigorating tonic guaranteed to amaze and delight. Grab a pint and share in the magic with us!

Available on draft and in 4-packs (to-go). Place curbside orders here: togoorder.com/web/3449#/
