🍺 Introducing CHRN007 - Baklava 🍺

We are thrilled to announce the next release in our Chronicles series, “Baklava,” set for July 1st. This beer is the liquid embodiment of decadence, capturing the essence of the famed and alluring dessert in every sip. Meticulously crafted, Baklava avoids the overly sweet residuals commonly found in pastry beers.

Every aspect of this beer is designed to highlight the rich, nutty flavors. The mash is carefully balanced to reduce bitterness, allowing the nutty essence to shine through. Brown sugar and honey are included to complement the nuts’ oily and fatty characteristics. Aged in hand-selected rye barrels, this beer brings forth compatible wood and spice layers, while cinnamon and vanilla are intentionally restrained to accentuate the existing flavors.

Available to Sockeye Chronicles Members for pickup July 1st!

‼️ ADDITIONALLY, we’re hosting an EARLY Bottle & Firkin Release at June 28 @ 6pm! We’ll be allowing members early pickup, tapping a firkin of Baklava conditioned on RAW HONEYCOMB! You won’t want to miss it!
