It's time for Oktoberfest at Wax Wings! We will be releasing our marzen beer, Eastwood Oktober - on draft only - for the event. We'll also be releasing two new BBA beers to the general public that day on draft and in bottles (details and limits TBD). Here are the BBA beer details:
Double Barrel Heights | DOUBLE BARREL-AGED STOUT | 14% (500mL bottle)
Double mash stout aged for 1 year in a Heaven Hill bourbon barrel, transferred to a Buffalo Trace store pick barrel where it finished aging. We loved the complex profile from the Heaven Hill barrel, the roasted notes of the base beer became softer, caramelized brown sugar. It was re-invigorated in the Buffalo Trace barrel resulting in a finished beer with deeper layers- bringing out notes of milk chocolate, fudge, caramel. We are extremely pleased with how it turned out.
Double Barrel Vanilla Heights | DOUBLE BARREL-AGED STOUT | 14% (500mL Bottle)
Double mash stout, aged for 1 year in a Buffalo Trace bourbon barrel. Transferred into a Maker's Mark store pick bourbon barrel where it finished aging. Conditioned on a blend of fresh vanilla beans. In sampling, we felt this was the perfect base to play off of a vanilla forward profile- soft texture, smooth light roast coffee and dark chocolate with great bourbon presence and tons of vanilla.
We are working on live music and a food truck. Stay tuned for details about that!
Cheers,
The Wax Wings Squad
