Barrel of Monks to release Grand Cru and Father Christmas

Barrel of Monks Brewing in Boca Raton is on the eve of releasing two bottles of big beers in the next few weeks. Brewery staff teases these releases in the most recent newsletter.

From Barrel of Monks:

June 16th- Grand Cru Draft & Bottle Release
Barrel of Monks Brewery
4:00pm
The Details: We will be releasing limited quantities of our first ever Grand Cru on draft and in bottles. What is a Grand Cru, you ask? The term Grand Cru denotes a very special beer – and this is one we have been working on for months. Grand also means “large” in French, and this beer is big, full of rich toasty and caramel malt flavors, with just enough hops to balance the sweetness. It is also big in alcohol content at 11% ABV. This beer should age well, much like our faithful Brewmaster and our wonderful brewery. Don’t miss out on this limited release!

June 25th- HALFWAY TO CHRISTMAS PARTY!
2:00pm-6:00pm
Barrel of Monks Brewery
The Details: Okay folks, pay attention here because this is a party you are not going to want to miss. We know how hard it is to go a full year without Father Christmas (our delicious spiced holiday ale) so we are giving you a chance to enjoy some in June. We will be releasing not one but three versions of Father Christmas – including two barrel aged versions in special wax dipped bottles. One of these (green wax) was aged in bourbon barrels, the other (red wax) was aged in cabernet barrels. They are both amazing! There are only 120 bottles of each of those – so don’t miss out. This will be a fun party which will include a visit by Santa – who will be giving away some gifts to all the good girls and boys!

Admission to this event is free (you can buy drink tickets as you go) but consider getting an advance unlimited tiicket. This gets you unlimited pours and early entry to get first right to the bottles! More information on the event and unlimited drink tickets are available here.

Barrel of Monks is located at 1141 South Rogers Circle in Boca Raton.
