Victory cancels Old Horizontal for 2012, cancels Dark Intrigue permanently
Just as the moon catches its Z’s on the Old Ho label, our beloved barleywine will be sleeping its way through 2012.
As we explained earlier in the year, Victory is experiencing incredible growth and impressive demand for our products. While this surge is mostly good news, it has forced us to make some tough decisions. In order to keep up with the demand for our core brands like HopDevil, Prima Pils, Golden Monkey and Headwaters Pale Ale, we have to take a pass on brewing our dear Old Horizontal.
Kegs from prior batches will occasionally appear at the brewpub over the next year.
Victory also recently announced that it would no longer be making Dark Intrigue after this year. The beer will be available on November 23rd.
Breweries: Victory Brewing
As a huge fan of Victory this is sad news. I hope they will reconsider and maybe do Old Ho and Dark Intrigue every other year as rotating seasonal brews.
