SPRÖCKETBIER

Anyone else get this? http://www.stonebrewing.com/spotlight/sprocketbier/
They seem to have a new beer every 3 days (I kid). Black Rye Kolsch (only half of the style Ron likes)
Rick and Robbie’s Spröcketbier is the first ever winner of the Stone Spotlight Series brewing competition. A black rye Kölsch-style ale, it arose victorious over 18 other impressive entries ranging from barrel-aged stouts to fruit-laced sour beers and nearly everything in-between. A uniquely dark spin on this traditionally light-bodied German beer style, Spröcketbier delivers mild roast, effervescence and floral yeast presence in tremendously balanced form with the high level of drinkability that is the Kölsch style’s hallmark. Look for it on draft and in bottles in select markets throughout the country, along with the duo that created it, Quality Production Assurance Lead Rick Blankemeier and Production Warehouse Lead Robbie Chandler.

Kealia's gone to the Dark Side and Germany is suing the US for blasphemy in International Trade Union.


Hmmm yumm rye... I bet could throw one of those together.

sure, everybody make fun of the guy way out on the West Coast that can't defend himself!

Sounds interesting, although the comments about coffee notes could be a deal-breaker.

I watched the video and couldn't stop laughing when I realized what soundtrack was playing in the background.

I loved the video. That is totally me when I brew....a big goofball.
Wait, that's me all the time.

I like a little Special B in what I call a "dark kolsch" but I do not think I want roasty in my Kolsch. Rye I would try though.
