Karl Strauss Celebrates 27 Years w/Bourbon Barrel-Aged Double Chocolate Imperial Stout

From Karl Strauss:

San Diego, CA — January 28^th, 2016        Karl Strauss Brewing Company is celebrating 27 years of brewing craft beer in San Diego since they revolutionized the city’s beer scene with their first brewery back in 1989. In keeping with their yearly tradition, they will honor the occasion with the release of another innovative barrel-aged beer to add to their esteemed Anniversary Series. This year’s edition is a Bourbon Barrel-Aged Double Chocolate Imperial Stout that features an abundance of darkly kilned malts and a decadent helping of cocoa nibs with rich layers of smooth toasted oak and warming bourbon.

“Each year we brew a specialty beer and let it age in oak barrels for twelve months to be released on our anniversary. The Anniversary series represents some of our best and most rare beers; each brew is distinct and complex and varies greatly from the previous years. It’s our way of celebrating the occasion by doing what we do best…brewing great beer!” –Matt Rattner, President, Karl Strauss Brewing Company.

This year’s event will take place on January 30^th from 5pm – 8pm and will feature food pairings from MIHO Gastrotruck, live music from local jazz band Juicebox, and a killer lineup of small batch beers. The event sold out in record timing this year, but if you missed out on purchasing tickets you can find KARL’s 27^th Anniversary Bourbon Barrel-Aged Double Chocolate Imperial Stout pouring in February at all Karl Strauss Brewpubs and select craft beer bars across California.
