Jane’s Beer Store Presents:

Clown Shoes, Flight of the Angry Beast.
The newest installment of Clown Shoes’ Angry Beast series is here! For this blend, they are combining 3 of their most popular strong ales, aged in different spirit barrels. They started with Undead Party Crasher, an imperial smoked milk stout aged in bourbon barrels. Next, Blaecorn Unidragon, a Russian Imperial stout aged in scotch barrels. And to finish it off, Billionare, an English style barleywine aged in scotch barrels. 10.75% abv

Avery, Liliko’i Kepolo. Luscious. Juicy. Tart. And like no other! Adding a tropical island flair to a spicy traditional witbier, Liliko’i Kepolo erupt with monumental passionfruit aroma and acidity along with a sublimely succulent finish. 5.4% Abv

Coronado, 2015 Stupid Stout. This deep, dark, viscous brew stands up to other imperial stouts, delivering big flavors in a smooth, balanced and easy-drinking package. Robust and chocolaty with a hint of hop freshness, it’s the perfect beer to warm up with as winter cold sets in. 9.3% Abv

Hitachino, Saison du Japon. The newest addition to the Hitachino line-up, this is a saison brewed with Japanese wheat, koji, and yuzu. 5% Abv

Almanac, Saison de Brettaville. A twist on their year round saison, Almanac added a dozen different Brett strains to their dry-hopped Saison Dolores, then aged it in white wine barrels for several months. The result is an intricate farmhouse ale with the kind of nuance and depth that only Brett can create. 7.2% Abv

Almanac, Paris of the West. This decadent dark quadrupel-style ale was brewed with dark candi sugar, dried flame grapes, and orange peel, then fermented with a French ale yeast. 9.5% Abv

Almanac, Dogpatch Grand Cru. This sour ale blends a Flanders red-style with red wine grapes to craft something truly unique. Layering California-grown Zinfandel, Syrah, Tannat, Petite Sirah, and Tempranillo grapes with a special imperial version of their Dogpatch Sour ale, combining the best characteristics of the beer and wine worlds. Tannic red wine notes mingle with complex sour yeast flavors and French oak barrel character to create an exceptionally original new brew. 10.5% Abv

Almanac, Farmer’s Reserve Grand Cru. An ode to white wine, Almanac combined California-grown Muscat Blanc grapes with an imperial version of their Farmer’s Reserve sour blonde base and aged them for over a year in French oak barrels. The result is a deeply fragrant hybrid that captures the Northern California terroir and seamlessly melds the complex tartness of a Belgian-inspired sour ale with the sun-ripened boldness of white wine grapes. 10.2% Abv
