Dear Taproom Friend & Baird Beer Enthusiast:
A very special brew will go on tap this Saturday, May 29 at The Taproom thus inaugurating our seasonal Baird Lager Beer Series.
Four Sisters Celebration Bock has been brewed to commemorate the birth of our fourth daughter – Sommer Eshelman Baird – and to celebrate the special bonds that exist among sisters. Ash has declared the beer a triumphant success!
Four Sisters Celebration Bock is brewed in the spirit of a German Maibock (a unique golden colored bock annually released in the month of May). Four Sisters, however, harkens back to a time before the general association of bock beer with the city of Munich. Our inspiration is the beer brewed in the city of Einbeck beginning in the 13th century. This beer was noted for its refreshing palatability and wholesomeness. It was said to be brewed with one-third wheat and two-thirds barley, hence the light, zesty feel for an otherwise strong beer.
Four Sisters Celebration Bock sports a deep copper-gold color and maintains a brilliance of clarity unique for an unfiltered beer. In the nose, you will be greeted with the sweet-floral bouquet of Liberty hops. A rich, malty flavor will envelope your mouth giving way to an extremely smooth, dry finish in which a hint of honeyed-fruit flavor will linger. The alcohol percentage is 6.8%.
In other news, please note the following:
- Taproom Live featuring Pub Acoustic Trio will take place from 9:00 to 11:00 PM on Saturday, May 29. Reservations are not required and there is no cover charge.
- Baird Brewing will be pouring beers in Tokyo on Saturday, May 29 at the Rock for Regime Change concert to be held at Seinen Kaikan from 5 PM to 11 PM. Tickets are 3,000 yen purchased at the door. For more information visit: www.brightblack.net/rock/
- The Taproom business hours will change slightly beginning June 1. Henceforth, we will open at 6 PM on weekdays (rather than 5:30) and we will remain open until 1 AM nightly (rather than midnight).
Cheers,
Baird Brewing Company & Fishmarket Taproom
