It's a new year. Some people get excited about resolutions and throwing out awkward family calendars from the year before. We get that same bright, optimistic, anything-is-possible feeling about the upcoming releases of our Brewhouse Rarities.

What are the Brewhouse Rarities? Glad you asked. Each July, the entire brewery gathers and teams of our staff — from production to accounting to sales and marketing — pitch their ideas for the next year’s lineup. This series of limited-edition brews shatter the confines of traditional beer styles and, in the words of the Good Doctor Hunter S. Thompson, are “too weird to live, too rare to die.”

The 2016 Brewhouse Rarities series kicks off with Tropical Stout. With this beer, our sales manager, Heather, was inspired by two types of seasonality: Warming her toes by the fire and envisioning those same little piggies under the sun of the tropics. The result is a blend of roasted malt, juicy pineapple and toasted coconut that will replace any drink that requires a mini umbrella.
