Bourbon Barrel-Aged Troegenator
This month we will package Bourbon Barrel-Aged Troegenator! Initially released as Scratch #87, this barrel-aged version of our flagship Double Bock is dense, chewy, and captivating. After hibernating for six months in Heaven Hill bourbon barrels, Troegenator has emerged as a lush Double Bock with undertones of vanilla, oak, and toasted coconut amid a warm blanket of tangy bourbon notes. For this initial run, we will release Bourbon Barrel-Aged Troegenator in 750mL cork and cage bottles available at the brewery through the General Store for take-out as well as our Tasting Room for on-premise consumption. We plan to make this beer an annual limited release with availability in September and October at select beer retailers throughout our distribution footprint.

Nugget Nectar
With Mad Elf now in full hibernation mode, it seems a fitting time to unleash our mid-winter limited release, Nugget Nectar. Hopheads will be excited to learn that we’re shipping Nugget Nectar region by region to get the freshest beer possible into the hands of our customers. We will release Nugget Nectar in our eight-county home market (along with the brewery Tasting Room and General Store) on January 6, and across Pennsylvania the week of January 20. Distribution will expand into New Jersey, Maryland and Delaware the first week of February, and then move into Ohio, Virginia, New York and Massachusetts in mid-February. With a heady collection of American hops, Nugget Nectar will rekindle your romance with the intense pucker your palate has come to expect from this bold Imperial Amber Ale. Drenched with a healthy dose of the freshest hops we’re able to source, Nugget Nectar is further intensified with additional whole flower Nugget cones added to our hopback vessel. The result is an explosive hop experience that will deliver hopheads to nirvana!
