Club/Brewer Notes:
Another definition: to question the truthfulness of a testifying witness. When Texas peaches meet premium malt and hops in great craft IPA, it’s totally credible.

The Bruery

Mischief

Belgian Ale | 8.5% ABV | 44 IBU
Offered By: SANTA
Club/Brewer Notes:
The devil is in the details, and with this limited release of our hoppy Belgian-style ale, it’s a mischievous dousing of Citra and Motueka hops. With each new release of Mischief, our 2016 GABF gold medal winner, we’ve added a diabolical twist by rotating the hops featured in the dry-hopping. This limited edition of Mischief features Citra and Motueka, adding fresh citrus and tropical notes to the ripe, fruity character of our crisp, dry and effervescent Belgian-style ale.

Full Circle Brewing Company

Oogazacca

Triple IPA | 9.5% ABV | Unknown IBU
Offered By: WESTEXANS
Club/Brewer Notes:
Our latest Triple IPA features a galactically hazy body and a mild sweetness from the lactose, fortified with an aggressive addition of over 150lbs of azacca hops, colliding worlds together with its 9.5% abv. If your hooked on a feeling, grab an Ooga Zacca and enjoy our latest NETIPA with its smooth mouthfeel and a burst of pineapple...it's taste will stay on your mind!

Balanced and rich, this classic Scotch-style ale was brewed with maple syrup and aged in bourbon barrels. Flavors and aromas of oak, maple, and caramel round out this delicious and complex beer.

Brouwerij Van Steenberge

Gulden Draak 9000 quadruple

Belgian-Style Quadrupel | 10.7% ABV | Unknown IBU
Offered By: SANTA
Club/Brewer Notes:
Gulden Draak, lonely at the top for 25 years, now gets company. The birthday present: Gulden Draak 9000 Quadruple, an enrichment of the Gulden Draak range. An ode to the past and to the city of (9000) GHENT The Gulden Draak is named after the gilded statue on top of the belltower of Ghent. Such eminent symbol, that has been standing firm for over 6 centuries, deserves equally grand beers. The unsurpassed Gulden Draak as dark tripel of 10,5% alcohol gets, after 25 years of growing success, quite an addition, the Gulden Draak 9000 Quadruple. All features of the Gulden Draak The extremely rich and complex taste sensation and the stable beer head can also be found in the Gulden Draak 9000 Quadruple. The sweet caramel touches, however, are still reserved for the Gulden Draak. With addition of extra malt The new recipe, on basis of 3 different kinds of malt added in a volume of 4 times the content in lager, provide the Gulden Draak 9000 Quadruple with a deep golden amber colour and a fruity scent. Together with the smooth and subtle sweet taste ensures this a wonderfully accomplished bouquet. In line with the traditions of Brewery Van Steenberge Just like the other specialty beers of Brewery Van Steenberge is the Gulden Draak 9000 Quadruple a beer of high fermentation with secondary fermentation. A wine yeast is used for the secondary fermentation, which also contributes to the grandiose taste.
