“The first bottle release went really well,” said Abby Dickinson, owner and director of events. “The event was extremely organized, but at the last minute we decided to pull down the first 60 people who had been waiting for hours outside the brewery. It was really fun to meet and greet with all these people who came out early. We got such great feedback that we decided to do that again, but this time with the first 100 people in line.”

Black Angel is not the last beer craft beer fans should anticipate Wicked Weed will put in bottles this spring.

“We have been brewing these barrel aged beers for the last year in anticipation of putting in a bottling line.” said Walt. “ When the bottling line came in, we were ready with a wide variety of beers to release. Our beer drinkers should anticipate a lot of great sour and funky beers going into bottles this spring.”
