Aly Recommends- Cucapá Barleywine ’08

ALIBernDon’t be fooled by the name! Barleywine is a style of beer, low in hops and carbonation. Our Cucapa Barleywine is aged for 1 year, allowing the flavors of slow-fermentation blend and meld into a layered symphony of jammy plum, clove, spiced compote and caramelized raisins. With this beer weighting in at a heavy 10% alchohol, it’s sure to bring the holiday cheer!

Try this with Roast Turkey, Piccolo Chef’s Pumpkin Gnocchi (http://www.surfaslosangeles.com/2009/11/pumpkin-gnocchi-with-sage-and-pecorino-butter-sauce ) or  Florentyna Sweet Potato Gnocchi from our freezer, Apple-Fennel Slaw (http://www.surfaslosangeles.com/2009/10/fall-fennel-slaw) or Valdeon Cheese Stuffed Dates.

Have any questions about these or other of our unusual beers? Stop by and let’s talk!

Cheers!
Aly, her Royal Beerness!
