It’s pretty hot out there right now. So hot, it kinda blows my mind. Where I’m from, there’s still snow on the ground. But Central City must have known this was coming, because they just unleashed a new pair of Radlers on the world.
I recently (OK, maybe not that recently) had the opportunity to attend a release event for a new beer from Central City - Sour Brown I Barrel Aged Sour Ale - the first in what will become an expansive Sour program, including upcoming Sour Red, Kreik, and Framboise releases. I’m a pretty big fan of sours, so I approached this release with no small amount of expectation.
This year Parallel 49 and Central City have stepped up to the plate in a big way with its new Craft Crossing Calendar. As of this post, we’re halfway through the calendar. So I thought I would give a quick rundown of the beers and my general impressions, with a focus on the uniques.
As you know, I’m drinking a beer every day from the Central City/Parallel 49 Mystery Gift Holiday Countdown. If you missed the first half, you can check out the first post. Now, on to the second half.
Some pretty solid beers so far. There isn’t a lot to inspire but we’re only halfway. There were a few days where I (among others) were getting a bit bored, but why the anger? I’m fully expecting some pretty awesome stuff to come out near the end.
