Last night Sun King had a DJ and Yats for a Thursday tasting party. Something they do about once a month. It's like a dropping in on a busy bar crossed with a big tasting party in someone's garage. With the food, they serve pints. Big crowd. Over 100 people. Most stayed for more than an hour.
Sun King's Notorious IBU. 9%. 97 IBU. Dark deep copper. Actually balanced yet actually really bitter. For all practical purposes a Barley Wine. A big, bitter Barley Wine. Only available at the tasting room. Too bad we can't age some for a couple years in a bottle (although Clay says a couple of kegs will be set aside for later). Andrew Korty's take: "Reminds me a little of Arrogant Bastard. Grapefruit, orange, resinous hop character. Plenty of cherry/berry esters. Rich but subtle malt -- nutty with a hint of chocolate. Not too malty as this kind of beer often is."
Sun King's Big H Hefeweizen – Fuzzy rusty apricot color. Floral, cidery American wheat. AK found a sulphury note.
