Baume'


The Baume' has been bottled and kegged.  It will drop next week hopefully. 

This American Chocolate Rye Stout is delicious.  Big, but not huge at 7%, this Stout fires off a lot of coffee and chocolate notes.  Balances well, but rides high on hop character at 60 IBU's while the Rye finishes it dry.  

We're really proud of this beer.  It's a commemorative release, so we only brewed 15bbls of it.  Once it's gone, it's gone.  There's only about 50 cases of 22oz bombers and about 10 kegs left.  Greg Hall at Goose Island Beer Co was kind enough to throw it on tap at their Clybourn brewpub, so a sneak peek will likely be available before it actually hits most places.

Seek this beer out.
