There's a new brewery in town. Well, actually in The Region. Let's give a hearty welcome to Crown Brewing! Manager Mike Goodfellow and Brewer Jim Cibak have several years of experience working at Three Floyds Brewery in Munster and decided to branch out on their own. Their initial beer lineup includes Special Force Ale, Weizenheimer and Bodacious Brown Ale.
Hoosier Beer Geek and Big Car Gallery will be teaming up for the next B+ART on Friday, September 19th. As always, festivities will kick off at 8pm at Big Car in Fountain Square and the theme for next month will be Oktoberfest Beers.

Picked up a couple bottles of Brugge on Friday. Still need to go back and grab a bottle of the White to complete the collection.
ReplyDeleteIT'S FINALLY HERE!!
I grabbed my three at Kahn's on Friday. I've got a lot of beer in my fridge to go through first, but I'm really looking forward to enjoying my inaugural Brugge in bottles!
ReplyDeleteWe cracked the Tripel de Ripple last night. Tastes exactly like at the Brasserie -- Bravo Brugge!
ReplyDeleteI wonder if you sat a bottle down for a couple months if the banana flavor everybody noted at the L'explorateur dinner would show up. Or maybe this is just a slightly different recipe than the old small batches made in Broad Ripple and that flavor is gone forever. Someone will have to run that experiment.
Also interesting to note that this is a rare case where drinking the beer at home is actually MORE expensive than drinking at the bar. You can get 2 tripels up at the Brasserie for about $8, yet it costs you $9 (Kahns) to $9.75 (Goose) to drink at home. I'm not going to complain -- I'd characterize the Brasserie price as a steal, not that the bottles are overpriced. And that's just one more reason to still head up there.
I should say BOLD banana flavor. It's not like there's zero banana in it right now, it's just much more muted.
ReplyDeleteGreat info! I had heard there were some speciality kegs of Sierra Nevada in town and now I know where to go find them. Really curious about that Torpedo and DeBOCKel.
ReplyDeleteI have a bottle of the Brugge White in my fridge, probably have it this coming weekend.
