AleSmith Barrel Aged Grand Cru Bottle Sale and Release Party Details
Our third Reserve Series release of 2013 will be Barrel Aged Grand Cru. This is the first time AleSmith has ever Barrel Aged Grand Cru and our first use of red wine barrels to age a beer. A little bit about Barrel Aged Grand Cru:
Barrel Aged Grand Cru is our Belgian-Style Ale that has been matured in American and French oak red wine barrels for a year to add layers of complexity to its rich flavor profile of dark fruit and Belgian caramel malts. The oak and red wine flavors imparted by the barrel-aging process blend seamlessly with subtle hints of raisin, plum, and bittersweet chocolate from the beer!
Starting Monday, April 22nd at Noon, you will be able to purchase up to three (3) bottles of Barrel Aged Grand Cru and your name will be registered (you will need to use your name for each bottle). Any duplicate sales to the same name will be voided! We want to make this as fair as possible and get as many bottles into our wonderful customer’s hands!
Please USE ONLY YOUR NAME TO PURCHASE THE BOTTLES. YOUR PURCHASE IS JUST FOR YOUR BOTTLES. YOU CANNOT PURCHASE BOTTLES UNDER SOMEONE ELSE’S NAME OR FOR SOMEONE ELSE. IF YOU BUY THEM, YOU MUST PICK THEM UP.
