Hey there fellow beer nerds!
In case you haven't heard yet, we're hosting Valiant Brewing on Tuesday, February 2nd! Head down to The Iron Press in Costa Mesa for a fun-filled Pint Night! We'll have four of their tasty beers on tap, so order a flight to receive complimentary glassware while supplies last! We'll be pouring these specialty beers all day, but the official event and giveaways don't start 'til 5PM, so don't miss out!
Here are the four delectable Valiant brews that will be flowing...
IMPERIAL BROWN COCONUT
IMPERIAL COCONUT BROWN 7.6% ABV, 45 IBU
This delicious seasonal winter beer started with the foundation of a brown ale, but was then taken a step further by incorporating coconut. With aromatics of Coconut and brown sugar, and flavors of toffee, bread, and hints of chocolate and caramel add a barrel aged characteristic. The slight bitterness plays perfectly with the sweeter after taste making the final tasting notes something to remember.
DARTH KRATOS
BLACK BELGIAN GOLDEN STRONG ALE 12% ABV, 30 IBU
Through his vast anger and hatred Darth Kratos desires only to achieve ultimate power. His suffering and that of others is the crucible though which his power is forged. A strong golden ale with the expected malty sweetness we all love in a good belgian, but with a roasted edge. But be warned, you'll forget it's a 12% until you've finished a few. Will you fall before Kratos' red blade as so many others, or will you have the strength to withstand his punishment and become his apprentice?
CHERNYY MEDVED, 2014
RUSSIAN IMPERIAL STOUT 13% ABV, 58 IBU
This powerful and fearless Russian Imperial Stout was brewed in collaboration with Black Market Brewing. Brewed in tribute to the OC Brew Ho Ho Holiday Ale Festival, Chernyy Medved is an intense black and beautiful brew that is sure to warm you right up. Brewed with smoked wood, pine, vanilla, cherries, this big Stout comes in at 13% ABV and is bursting with flavor.
CHERNYY MEDVED, 2015
RUSSIAN IMPERIAL STOUT 13% ABV, 58 IBU
New and improved, and darker than ever. Don't skip this year's batch of Chernyy.
Hope to see you all on Tuesday!
Cheers to good beers!
