Urban South collaboration with Chicago brewer

#1

Post by Dixie Dave »

One of New Orleans' most active breweries has done a collaboration brew with Illuminated Brew Works in Chicago. I thought you good Chicago collectors would want to be aware of this. They're supposed to be releasing a batch of this brew as well, don't know if the can will be the same. This goes on sale today. Will try to pick up a few for trade in Omaha. Won't have a lot because supplies are limited and they're expensive. Ale should be excellent- it's a raspberry version of Urban South's wonderful Coop'd Up Farmhouse Ale.

Dave,

It's not listed on the web site of the dominant liquor store chain up there. I'll have to look again in a few days, along with making requests with some Chicago area collectors.

I did a little digging, and there will be a Chicago release of this ale at the Chicago Brewseum August 25. There may be a brewery release of it also, they're not saying anything. Anyway, that is just in time for my Chicago friends to stock up on some before Canvention. The release here was this weekend, I managed to get 12 of them. Will have them available for trade in Omaha. Ale is quite good if you enjoy raspberry farmhouse ales.

Here is a link with more information from the Chicago perspective: http://www.chicagobrewseum.org/events/2 ... ew-orleans
