6 Lost Abbey Beers We've Squirreled Away for Feb 11

February 11, 2016 4:00PM at Monkey Paw Pub & Brewery

Come join us at Monkey Paw this day as we celebrate with six of Tomme Arthur's "Non-Denominational" barrel aged specialty beers we've been stashing in our cold room for a little bit. Here's what we will have on tap:Angel's Share Bourbon BA - This striking strong ale is brewed with copious amounts of caramel malt to emphasize the vanilla and oak flavors found in freshly emptied bourbon barrels. The beer spends a year in oak before it is packaged for release.Angel's Share Brandy BA - Similar to the Bourbon BA, we have an initial impression from the oak aging of fortified wine and port. There is a pleasing vanilla backdrop supported by some great sweet malt notes. An incredibly smooth and sweet beer with a long lasting finish.Angel's Share Grand Cru - A blended version of this particular brand sees them mixing the strong ale between bourbon, brandy and wine barrels. The result is an exceptionally smooth yet complex variety of flavors.Framboise De Amorosa - A delightful raspberry sour, the first sip produces a sweet start with a long drawn out sour finish. So of the sweetness from the raspberries comes out before acidic notes join the mix. On the back end of the beer is a smoothing oak character which keeps the beer from becoming dull.Cuvee de Tomme - A massive brown ale base that is made from four fermentable sugars including Malted Barley, Raisins, Candi Sugar and Sour Cherries, this beer is fully fermented before being placed in Bourbon barrels where the beer ages for one year with the Sour Cherries and the wild Brettanomyces yeast that they inoculate the barrels with.Track 8 - A bourbon barrel version of their Judgement Day, the raisins used to brew the base beer drive the flavor of this beer with hints of oatmeal, cinnamon, and dried chilies.
