SFBW Day 8: Sudwerk’s Brewers Cut Reserve Series – Strawberry Solera & Oso Furioso

Its Day 8 of SF Beer Week. How ya’ll feeling out here?

We are proud to announce that we’ve got two beers from Sudwerk Brewery that are exclusive to Healthy Spirits as well as being the first time San Francisco have seen this rare liquid.

The Brewers Cut Reserve Series is a special one-of-a-kind release of beers. From sours to barrel aged blends and more. There’s not a whole lot of literature about these beers or the series itself. But we did get some notes from the brewer (which we’ve included below). Limit 1 per person please.

Sudwerk Brewing – Brewers Cut Reserve Series: Oso Furioso
(Barrel Aged Doppelbock with Cocoa, Cinnamon and Chiles)

Sudwerk Brewing – Brewers Cut Reserve Series: Strawberry Solera
(Sour Ale brewed with Strawberries, barrel aged brett-saison blend)

Notes from the brewer about Solera…

“Strawberry Solera is a blend of Solera Weiss fermented with Sudwerk microflora and a Brett-Saison aged on 1lb/gal Sacramento Valley strawberries in Bordeaux barrels.  The nose is lactic, lemon, and berries with moderate Brett character.  Clean palate with bright berry and tropical highlights with a dry finish.”

SFBeerWeek Sunday Funday with Goose Island Bourbon County Brand Coffee Stout

Coffee and bourbon never had it so good

While the rain drops down my coffee maker drips black aromatic nectar. A dollop of bourbon to spice, sweeten, and spike my piping mug to cut the mist on this lazy Sunday afternoon. How I wish all these things came in one container I didn’t have to wash when finished…

Limit 1 bottle per person please. Both stores currently have a limited amount for “in-store only” and club member reservations. So come on down to get a little more of your Sunday SF Beer Week fix.
