The Barrels and Mash crew had a good time hanging out with the Vanessa House crew at OCBF, and realized we hadn’t reviewed any of their beers yet. I decided on the lactose infused brown ale, 5th Keg. This one was a fan favorite at the last OCBF and these guys have come a long […]
Read more "Vanessa House 5th Keg Brown Ale"I had a chance to try this beer at an event last year, having been aged on peaches for a mere six months, and found it delicious. It turns out that they kept a barrel from last year, and now this vintage has been simmering in there for 18 months. Aged on a mess of […]
Read more "405 Brewing Company BA ESP"I’ve been hearing rumors about interesting COOP experiments with barrel aged DNR for years, and was intrigued to see this pop up on the shelf. It is attractively packaged in a thick 375 ml corked and caged bottle and handsomely printed directly on the glass, a great new look for COOP. I like to see […]
Read more "Coop Ale Works Cask-It Series: Brandy Barrel Aged DNR With Cherries"Prairie continues its Fruit Funk series with a new entry, Apricot Funk. We saw Cherry Funk last year, and am looking forward to an uncommon apricot brew. Cody from Prairie gave this one to me at no cost, and remarked that the feedback on Cherry Funk was that it was much better with a couple […]
Read more "Prairie Artisan Ales Apricot Funk"Here is our first review from Broken Arrow’s Nothing’s Left Brewing Company. This is their first packaged beer, though they have plenty that has been going around on draft at bars and festivals. They’ve put together an American Pale Ale with one of my favorite hops: Galaxy. The can also features a kangaroo in a […]
Read more "Nothing’s Left Galaxy Pale Ale"Here’s another offering from 405 Brewing that I picked up at their 04/05 celebration. It’s Blueprint, a foreign export stout and a brew that I have not had before from 405. Apparently named Blueprint because it was originally brewed while listening to Jay-Z. 99 problems but a pitch ain’t one? Company: 405 Brewing Company Location: […]
Read more "405 BREWING COMPANY BLUEPRINT Foreign Export Stout"I stopped by the 405 Brewery on 4/05 to help them celebrate. They had a delicious and rare keg of barrel aged ESP aged for 18 months in bourbon barrels on peaches (it was excellent but no growler fills) as well as two brand new offerings, an East Coast style IPA and an export stout. This […]
Read more "Review: 405 Brewing Company LFN (Last Friday Night) IPA"Welcome to our first review of relatively new Oklahoma City brewery Twisted Spike. Available on tap at various watering holes around the metro, looks to be available in bottles at the brewery. I tried this one at Oak & Ore, though I’m sure I’ll be stopping by the brewery soon to review a few more. […]
Read more "Review: Twisted Spike Holy Beer Belgian Quad"I stopped in to Oak and Ore for a quick pint and was pleased to see a newish Marshall IPA that seems to be draft only at the moment. I like the idea of oatmeal in the mash, softening the mouth of an IPA, perhaps like an original English style IPA. Company: Marshall Brewing Company […]
Read more "Marshall Brewing USS Tulsa Oatmeal IPA"Prairie’s newest installment in the Funky Gold dry hopped sour ale series gets the Citra hop treatment. A personal favorite hop of mine, I was looking forward to this review, and have enjoyed the previous Funky Gold. Brewed in Krebs, let’s see what the post-Chase Prairie crew can do with the Funky Gold base beer. […]
