This past Saturday was the 2009 Festival of Wood and Barrel Aged Beers. Last year we won a gold and Best in Show with our Barrel Aged Behemoth. This year we won a bronze medal for Blackheart, our English style IPA aged on toasted oak.
The results should be posted soon to the Guild’s website.
This is a really great festival with beers from all over the nation, the awards are judged by industry professionals, and in some cases, this is your only chance to try some of these tiny, tiny batches of rare beer. If you didn’t get a chance to make it to one of the two sessions this year, I suggest you keep your eyes peeled around this time next year.
