Beachwood Brewing has already bottled Thrillseeker IPA, Tovarish and Full Malted jacket and they are “set to release System Of A Stout, an Imperial Armenian Coffee Stout on May 24.
“System Of A Stout is far different than any other imperial stout I have brewed before,” says Beachwood Brewmaster Julian Shrago. “This bold brew allowed us to take a step in a new direction, the flavor and aroma is immediately recognizable.” System Of A Stout is brewed with blackstrap molasses, green cardamom, and a custom Armenian coffee roast blend from Costa Mesa’s Portola Coffee Lab®. This big imperial stout is also aged in Armenian brandy oak adding an additional dimension of complexity. “The first time we brewed this beer it was in such limited quantities and on draft. We’re very excited to be able to offer this beer again and look forward to reaching a larger audience with its bottled form”, concludes Shrago.
System of a Stout will be sold in 22 oz. bottles at finer craft beer retailers across Los Angeles, Orange and San Diego counties. The stout will also be available on draft at both Beachwood BBQ locations.”
I can’t wait to try this year’s batch of System of a Stout. Beachwood will be pouring this at the Father’s Day Collabrewtive Brunch, which is very cool.
I can’t believe Julian re-created this labor intensive beer again. Lucky Us!
Well Sean, we both know what a deep labor of love “SoaS” is…but apparently there’s an incredible demand for it…and Julian/Beachwood Brewing currently control 100% of the World’s supply of Imperial Armenian Coffee Stout ; )
So its a monopoly. Could be in worse hands.
