NYC Tastes

Today's New Brew Friday is another masterpiece from Evil Twin Brewing the Even More Jesus aged in Pappy Van Winkle Barrels. This Bourbon Barrel Aged Imperial Stout pours jet black with just a wisp of foam on top that quickly dissipates.  The aroma is  super  boozy with tons of bourbon and a bit of smoke. I was expecting to be bowled over by the booze but the flavor was incredibly smooth...lots of chocolate, bourbon and vanilla with a rich fudgy mouthfeel that left the lingering taste of dark cherries on the end.  This is a big luscious beer to definitely seek out.  It's available almost exclusively at Jeppe's bar Torst so head there soon before it all sells out. Cheers! Evil Twin Brewing Torst 615 Manhattan Avenue Brooklyn, NY 11222

Blind Tiger tapped this Evil Twin Berliner Weissbier for their VSK (Very Special Keg) on Monday.  I've been lucky enough to have it in bottle at Torst before so I jumped at the chance to try it on draft. " This beer is zippy and tart with huge blueberry aromas up front and a gorgeous strawberry hue...much more personality than Bieber himself has going that's for sure.  It's a perfect for enjoying on a warm summer day and something even non-beer drinkers may enjoy.  Cheers!
