Night Shift – El Lechedor Returns 2/28

From Night Shift:

Our high-flying horchata-style milk stout returns from its bourbon-barreled sabbatical this Sunday, 2/28 at 12pm! An entertaining tingle of vanilla tumbles with biting cinnamon and nutmeg under a poblano heat in this startingly spirited stout. El Lechedor caps off an exciting week of Taproom beer, including the debut of Furth cans and the tapping of fresh Pfaffenheck pilsner – see below for all the sudsy details.

Everett, MA – February 24, 2016 – Get ready to take your tastebuds for a tumble. At noon on Sunday, 2/28, Night Shift Brewing will release El Lechedor, a bourbon barrel-aged horchata-style milk stout, on draft & in bottles. Available once every year, this brew features poblano peppers, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla beans for a rich, spicy flavor profile and a creamy, velvety mouthfeel. 3,000 bottles will be available at $14 each, with no purchase limit to customers.

"This beer pretty much tastes like your favorite cinnamon roll dipped in chocolate," says Night Shift co-founder Michael Oxton. "El Lechedor has definitely gained a strong following over the years – we’re excited to see the turnout on Sunday." 

To celebrate the long-awaited release, Somerville’s Better Bagels will join the festivities with hand-rolled bagels that rival any New York delicatessen. The Galley Ice Creamwill also be on hand with an El Lechedor-inspired flavor, as this milk stout just beckons to be turned into a sweet confection. Satisfying both the savory and sweet alike, the release of El Lechedor will provide a symphony for the senses and a reward for braving the cold.
