Sierra Nevada, Russian River introduce ‘Brux’ collaboration (video)
Sierra Nevada’s Brian Grossman and Russian River’s Vinnie Cilurzo debuted their collaboration beer, Brux, at the Thirsty Monk in Asheville during Asheville Beer Week. The project has been two and a half years in the making. Cilurzo says they put 1.3-1.5 mL of Brettanomyces bruxellensis into every individual bottle. At one point, he says he thinks that Scott Jennings, who will be the head brewer at Sierra Nevada’s new Asheville facility, is the best brewer in the country.
