Chimney and I received an email a couple of days ago from Hoppin' Frog Brewery. They are releasing a few new beers for bottling this weekend just for local pickup from the brewery itself.
From the winter warmer festival chim and I went to, they introduced (tapped that morning for the first time as a matter of fact) was Outta Kilter Scotch Red Ale. Very very tasty and surprisingly strong for a scotch ale (8%) it was quite lovely. They have decided to brew up a batch for bottling. Chimney is bummed because he is working so he can't pick it up. I think I might be the awesome wife and pick some up for him.
Also they are releasing a barrel-aged version of their BORIS Imperial Oatmeal Stout. This is their award winner based from a recipe that the brewmaster had made for Thirsty Dog Siberian Night Stout (he was the former brewmaster with Thirsty Dog before he left and started Hoppin' Frog). This should be epic as the default stout is amazing. I should definitely pick up a bunch of those as well.
Fortunately the smallest bottle size they serve is a bomber so a case or two would be quite lovely.
Should I pick up any more for anyone else?
