As the resident Clybourn expert, Vainglorious a Belgian stout with Black Raspberries, coffee and aged in red wine/bourbon barrels. It was first released at the hilariously under-attended Goose Belgian Fest 2014, but also made appearances at FOBAB and Stout Fest 2015.

Saw the $40 all inclusive ticket on Instagram, figured it was per bottle. Not sure what the $40 gets you.

maybe it is their attempt to cull "double dipping"?!? Although I agree with the general consensus... Not only will I not be attempting to buy two bottles, I won't even show up for one.

That price tag won't stop many people. Not enough people to make a difference, anyway. Low bottle count AND fruit? They could charge $50 and still sell out quickly.

Cherry Wheatwine wont have people lining up hours early, at least not compared to a Barrel Aged Stout, or A Barrel Aged Stout wif Adjuncts. See Cthulhu and Nthulhu

anyone happen to know the wine barrels used in napa BCS? art is theft

I was thinking about this beer the other day and wine barrel-aging in general. Is there more of a tendency to have residual wild yeast in wine barrels leading to infected/soured stouts and therefor a tendency to not bottle beers aged like this? It seems like you could keg it and serve it before infection takes over, but in bottles time could be your enemy. It's just surprising to me that there aren't more wine aged stouts out there (maybe there are and I just don't know about them?).

 

[trickytunadicky]

I am way more interested in why there isn't more Speyside BCBS since they use a scotch barrel vendor. That was legit.

nicely done...red wine is close enough for funk (or lack thereof), I thought it was chardonnay so I was way off. would of never expected american oak either.

J. Lohr Vineyards too! janky pic proves helpful

The MT and TH designate the toasting of the barrel. The barrel received medium toasting and the head of the barrel received some toasting, too. As you may know from Bourbon, the more toasting, the more char there is.

Red Wine Mex Cake first came to mind.

The barrel is prob a red wine. Strong tannins from the grapes may impart nicely in to the beer. A white wine would be very acidic and seems odd, imo, with imparting fruity notes. We'll see

That huge red stain on the barrel gave it away. Now the question is when and where is this being poured!

Onsieme-Heure at FOBAB this year was BCBS in Pinot Noir barrels, I assumed it was just the name they finally decided to give to Napa BCBS.

And it was the best thing they had there.

ad astra is delicious. At $9.99 a 4-pack, I can get 192 oz. of beer for $40. middlebrow must've forgot to jack up the price due to the salt used.

And 8% abv too, how do we do it...don't worry, it's going in wine barrels with cherries (not joking) and I'm expecting 40 dollar 750's next fall, and of course, that price is all inclusive.
