Last month I told the staff that I was dedicated to always having some type of IPA on tap, whether it be traditional, American, black, Belgian, Imperial etc.  Then I released Rising Sun, it sold out about twice as quickly as I’d expected, and I promptly broke my promise.  Well I’m working to catch up.  I’ve got India Black Ale in the tank and firkens now and we’re brewing another batch of Rising Sun on Wednesday.  The good news is that I’ve got 1/4 keg each of the Rising Sun and #100 squirreled away and I’m going to put them on tap on Wednesday at 5:00 when I tap those firkins of India Black Ale.  So for a brief (possibly very brief) while we’ll have three IPAs on tap.  I saved just a little bit of the #100 and Rising Sun in the hopes that I’d be sending one of them out to the GABF, but alas Bob’s Hopilicious from Media beat me out.  (Every year we do a blind tasting of a few styles that we’re entering for competititon to see which location gets to represent the company in Denver.)  That’s OK, Hoplicious deserves to go and this way there’s less for the judges, more for us!

Cheers,
