Challenging What Beer Is and Can Be
Challenging What Beer Is and Can Be Twisted Pine continues to release highly experimental beers
Boulder, Colorado – March 24th 2010 – Experimentation is running rampant in the craft beer industry these days. Cherry Chocolate Chili Stout, Yerba Mate Pale Ale and Pumpkin Brown Ale are just some of the latest beers now available to the everyday consumer. The craft beer industry is constantly exploring new frontiers to come up with the next biggest thing in beer. Twisted Pine continues to embrace experimentation and takes it up one more notch.
Past releases have included “Poison Fish” a beer laced with ginger, wasabi, horseradish and mustard, “Port Wine Porter” an ale infused with port wine soaked oak chips and of course, there’s the ever so popular “Billy’s Chilies,” a beer that packs the heat of 5 fresh chili peppers. “The freedom to brew whatever comes to mind is one of the privileges of working at Twisted Pine,” says brewer Jeff Brumley. “If you can dream it, you can brew it.”
In the works at Twisted Pine is a beer made with Ghost Chilies, also known as the hottest chilies on Earth. “The trick to these creative brews is keeping them balanced,” says owner Bob Baile. “You don’t want one flavor to completely overwhelm another.”
“It is the unique interesting beers that really keep people coming back to our brewery, especially when there are as many great breweries as there are in Boulder,” says marketing director Mike Burns. “I became familiar with the beers of Boulder a long time ago but I always keep a look out for new releases.” Upcoming releases at Twisted Pine include: Imperial Red Ale, Vanilla Espresso Stout, Sour Raspberry Brown Ale and a Vanilla Oaked Stout. At least one new beer has been tapped at Twisted Pine every week since last December.
