Don't make me choose :( I just know that I'd love to have a stash of BDG to drink with dinner.
growing... right now we have 2 brites and a visit from Iron Heart 1ce a month. More than that and run the risk that all the awesome bars that took the leap of faith to put on all our weird beers over the last 3 years might run out of something like BDG. For now cans get the short part of that deal but we are working on it.
 
we are 3!!! party at Boyle's in Monmouth Beach is Thursday and the beer with which we mark this milestone is the old Bigger Boat recipe

If nobody else will say it, I will.

We're going to need some Bigger Boat.
 
So being the food inspired beer company you guys are. my question which i know is a total 180 and far out idea but when is carton going to open a brewpub so these food inspired and food forward beers can be paired with outstanding food?

NJ law keeps us from holding any other type license than the one for manufacturing. ((this same law kept me from loaning some money to help Twin Lights Tap come back from Sandy (man i miss that bar)) What i would love is the same rights the NJ wineries have to open 10 "tasting rooms" in NJ where i could do food and just our beer. But i would also buy the liquor license you need to be a brew pup, but as of right now that's also not allowed. PLEASE WRITE YOUR NJ STATE LEGISLATORS i promise we will all have fun together if you can sort it out.
 
Augie, can you give me some idea of the pounds per barrel of hops on Boat Beer? I had my first one last night and thought it was incredible, and such a more satisfying session brew than alleged session IPAs. I make a homebrew session brett IPA that uses the equivalent of 6 lbs/barrel, so I'm curious to see if we're in similar ballparks.

All in about 4 pounds per barrel. We've backed off a touch since the hop rocket. It' was blowing it out.
 
augiecarton Heard that Rickey wouldnt be back for a few years. Any truth to that?
it really depends on capacity. this year Rickey was in the Intermezzo spot. I love them both, so unless i have a different inspiration between now and then and make neither i think we will just switch back and forth year over year. That is until that dream day when we have enough tanks to make both and enough of the "menu" items and what ever else turns us on. baby steps baby steps
 
I received some Monkey Chased the Weasel in the Sour, Saison and Funk BIF and loved it. There are lots of ways to make a Berliner, I wonder what approach you use and why?

I have a cousin that owns a flower shop in Highlands, NJ so I will definitely be checking out Carton Brewing next time I am in the area.

We wort sour 2 mashes in a fermenter then split it between the tun and kettle, CIP the tank while we boil each half then back into the fermenter and pitch sac. It's born of recreating the conditions of the long power outage of Hurricane Sandy for the brew Something Like Sandy. It works for us on the simple fast ferment sours.
 
he is asking about this one which is pretty much gone, there was also this one which is still around more or less
I just watched your TED talk. Absolutely incredible presentation. I watched the whole thing without getting bored, and I have a very short attention span.

Now I really need to try more Carton beers. I've only had Monkey Chased the Weasel so far and thought that was one of my favorite beers of the year.
