American Craft Beer Week at Rickoli’s

 

Peach sign

Monday May 13 at 6:30pm  -  PEACH GOBBLER 8.6% ABV 45 IBU.  Peach Gobbler is an American style strong ale that was steeped with 31 pounds of flavorful Colorado peaches from Rickolis front yard.  Macerated in the fermenter for 3 weeks, then we put the batch into a Wild Turkey barrel. This makes a special complexity that blends Malt, Peach, Bourbon, and Oak into a real Colorado sipping experience.

 

 

THE WOODYTuesday May 14th at 6:30 PM    -  The Woody Lube! 8%ABV   30 IBU.  No Rocket science here! The marriage of a Whiskey barrel and our Social Lubricant Scotch Ale was really a no-brainer! The creamy body, aggressive caramel flavors really bring a super smooth malty brew that will make you think of the smoothest scotches you ever tasted! D’oh! We should have done this long ago….

 

 

old rickoliWednesday May 15 6:30PM- OLD RICKOLI Barleywine  11.5% ABV 165 IBU.    Our Yearly Barleywine – Rickoli chose to take advantage of our windfall of Wild Turkey barrels That were donated by Kevin Marley of the Denver Chophouse and Brewery to specially age this year’s Barleywine in them! This has resulted in a very complex and warming ale that just gets more flavorful and delicious as it warms!

 

 

MONOLITH.

Thursday May16th at 6:30PM - MONOLITH  12%ABV 50 IBU.  Truly great things get one name. Zeus, Madonna, Bono, Etc…  Monolith is an American Imperial Stout that will create beer dreams and have you almost carving strange likenesses in various mediums as you try to satisfy the cravings it will embed into your soul. Large, black and formidable, Monolith.

STATIK

Friday May 17th at 4:20p-THE STATIK 13% ABV420 IBU.  A trip to insanity and back! This beer was inspired by STATIKrx, The most talented Rapper out of Wyoming. As a member of Prescrxption, Statik speaks of disturbing and dark issues that don’t normally get talked about. Totally Disturbed rappers need a brew that can match their insanity. We created a brew where insanity was the requirement! Overly loaded with a variety of American high alpha hops, balanced with an almost toasty malt bill to help balance the incredible alcohol punch this brew delivers. Not done yet! We will tap this monster through the Randall, which is a bed of whole cone Apollo hops that the beer passes through on the way to your glass. Yeah, we know….

Mad Scientist at Work

In the evolution of our Pale Ale Series, we are exploring 4 new experimental hop varieties. These hops are in the infancy of commercial production.  Some of the new varieties are exhibiting some bold and new flavors and aromas.  Come experience the flavor differences that hops can provide to an otherwise normal Pale Ale.

Help us provide feedback to the hop growers by taking notes on our interactive tasting mat!
