Wrecking Bar Wood-Aged Husker Squared Imperial Red Rye Wrecking Bar Brewpub Atlanta, Georgia
Beer style: Strong Ale - American Ref: ratebeer.com May2024
Common descriptors are We had just one small fermenter to get this beer ready for Great American Beer Festival, so we only got bottles for judging and a little bit extra. We took that little bit and aged it on Spanish Cedar for a couple weeks and dry-hopped it with Chinook hops that we grew outside the Wrecking Bar this year. I’ll go out on a limb and say that it may be our best wood-aged beer yet. Lots of light, medium, and dark caramel malts and 30% rye along with Centennial, Columbus, Falconer’s Flight, Zythos, and Chinook hops yield a 10.3% ABV Imperial Red with 85+ IBUs. |
