Cascade – Concorde Grape Coming Today, Frost Killer & 2012 Diesel This Week

From Cascade Brewing:

Happy New Year! Hope you’re feeling okay after celebrating last night – perhaps a little hair of the dog is in order? We’re ringing in 2013 with tonight’s Tap It Tuesday Live from the Barrel Series at 6pm: Concorde Grape. This NW style sour ale was barrel aged for eight months, then aged on white grape must for another three months, then blended with Bourbon black mission fig essence. Aromas of dark purple grape dominate initially. Sweet Concorde grapes with hints of chocolate on the palate lead to a sweet grape finish that lingers. No actual Concorde grapes were harmed in the making of this blend. 9% ABV, $6.5 glass, $2 taster.

Vlad the Imp Aler is conditioning nicely and we are looking for a late January/early February release – you’ll know more when we do. Vlad will be sold online! Then look for Bourbonic Plague in late March; this one will also be available online.

Currently on the Blenders Reserve Taps, which feature rare, limited beers from the blenders cellar:’10 Helga the Hammered, Counter Culture Double IPA (only about one week left), Darkest Day (CDA),Kriek, Elderberry & Glueh Kriek.

Frost Killer is now on and 2012 Diesel should make an appearance later this week.
