Blowing Rock High Country Ale is an American-style ale fermented with a proprietary ale yeast strain that provides a distinct fruity-ester aroma and flavor. The deep golden liquid is characterized by a balanced hop bitterness and evident (but not overwhelming) hops aroma. The kettle hopping is derived from American Cascade and Centennial hops, with generous dry hopping during aging. Medium bodied and crisp, the grainy character from 2-Row and Munich-style malts is spot on.
A German Marzen-style brew, Blowing Rock Oktoberfest is a vibrant copper colored lager with big malt flavor and roasted caramel aroma. A healthy addition of Hallertau hops is present in reflection of this heady change of seasons.
Featured Beer from Boone Brewery:
Blowing Rock Oktoberfest Lager and Blowing Rock High Country Ale
www.boonebrewing.comOKTOBERFEST LAGER – Boone Brewery’s Blowing Rock Oktoberfest Lager – Before refrigeration, March was the last month that beer could be made, as the warm temperatures brought out the wild yeasts, which would spoil any beer made with them. By October, this bottom-fermented lager was ready to drink, celebrating the fall harvest. It’s clean, malty and has a caramel-like sweetness, and goes great with schnitzel, German cheeses, or hearty beef stew. (Also called Marzen or Marzenbier, meaning March beer.)
ALE – Boone Brewery’s Blowing Rock High Country Ale and Fire Island’s Lighthouse Ale – Ales are top-fermented brews, the oldest of all beers. They tend to be stronger than bottom-fermented beers, and come in a variety of hues. Here’s your chance to compare two really good American style ones! Blowing Rock’s touts a medium body with a great crispness, while Fire Island’s is softly carbonated and sturdy. Serve both with anything from hot off the grill dishes to strong-flavored pasta favorites. Let the competition begin!
