(Pleasantville, NY) – This email delivered just 20 minutes ago from Captain Lawrence Brewing:

“We will be releasing the first vintage of the Smoke from the Oak Apple Brandy Barrel.

Aged for close to 8 months, this beer has taken on the flavor of the wood and the spirit and turned into smoothing new and exciting. We did not add anything to the beer; Just Smoked Porter and freshly emptied Apple Brandy Barrels. The beer does have some acidity to it, but it is very faint and adds to the complexity of the beer. Bottle conditioned, so it will age, but we recommend you store it cool/cold if you plan on aging it for longer periods of time.

Release Date: September 12th, 12:00pm

Production: 120 cases, 750 ml bottles

Price: $12 / bottle, Max 6 bottles per person
