Burlywine Day is Here!


Our 4th Annual Burlywine Day Open House is well under way. Congrat's to Aaron Brown on winning the gift certificate for being first in line (7:30 AM -20C.). He had provisions for the wait - coffee and granola bars.
Congrat's also to the first 10 people in line who got free t's for braving the cold.
We've been sampling out our St. James Pale, Burlywine 2009, Bourbon Burlywine, and a special aged keg of our Pothole Porter. Hopefully you don't miss the day completely because the Porter and the Bourbon Burly are getting rave reviews right now!
Today's News:
We've been letting people in on the secret beer we've been working on. The release date is Saturday, January 16th. The beer is a strong, whisky barrel aged stout we're calling Sellout Stout. It's 8.4% a/v and uses Jaggery during the production. It had a very rummy flavour before going into the barrels for six months. Can't wait to see how it all comes together. Yummy!
There's only a few 6'ers left of the Bourbon Burlywine, so hopefully you get here soon.
Cheers,
Brewmaster Dave
