Breaker Brewing Co in Joe Sixpack

Here’s a little linky to a recent article on the Joe Sixpack blog about Breaker Brewing Co.  Clicky HERE.  Congratulations guys!

Breaker Brewing 16-Ton Double IPA

Here’s a first peek at the label submitted to the TTB for Breaker Brewing Co 16-Ton IPA.  The guys tell me 16-Ton will be available mainly in 22oz bottles with perhaps a few kegs.  The beer comes in at 116 IBU with a strong malt backbone thanks to generous portions of Warrior, Nugget, Chinook and Columbus hops.  Adding to that hop bouquet, the guys dry hopped with Cascade & Nugget and aged the beer with lightly toasted oak chips to get the final brew.  16-Ton will be bottle conditioned, unfiltered, un-pasteurized AND 10.6% ABV.  Look for Breaker Brewing 16-Ton IPA to be available in a few weeks and stay tuned here and breakerbrewingcompany.com for the latest details.

As the bottle says, “After dealing with your day’s Sixteen Tons, kick back and relax with this Double IPA and let your worries blissfully fade away.”

Chip the Beer Guy Rock 107 – Breaker Brewing Belsnickler

It’s always fun to hear Mark & Chris from Breaker Brewing Co on the show and today was no exception.  Today’s show featured the BBC Belsnickler Holiday Ale.  I was lucky enough to get to try a few of the various batches of Belsnickler at the brewery a few weeks ago, and again at the Split Rock beer festival, ok and I’ll admit I tasted it again at the Anthracite Cafe and even again last week at Elmer Sudds.  I know what you’re thinking but I assure you it was all in the name of science or journalism or both; but you can never be too sure about really liking a beer.  Of course I really like this one a lot.  I’ll admit to being a lover of holiday beers and a lover of Belgian-yeast beers, and a lover of Belgian candied sugar beers and sure enough Belsnickler has them all.

I thought it would be fun to google “Belsnickler” so I did.  Ironically enough the first page or so of hits came from breakerbrewing.com, mybeerbuzz.com and our various Twitter and Facebook accounts.  After that, there were some great Germanic and Canadian stories about groups of Belsnicklers, dressed in fur masks visiting homes, receiving treats and giving gifts to all the children.  In some German cultures, Belsnickler actually means Father Christmas or Santa Claus.  I also found out that there is a verb “Belsnickling” and as it turns out Belsnickling is much like our modern day trick-or-treating with children dressing up and receiving treats as they visited homes.  So in addition to the Belsnickler label (be sure to click on it and read the text), I also present for you some Belsnickler Masks and images.

So to all you little Belsnicklers out there, be sure to get out and try some Belsnickler Ale.  Otherwise the sinister santa ghost of christmas-past (and his whip) may come Belsnickling to your door.  If he does come knocking, be sure to have an extra snifter ready to enjoy some Breaker Brewing Belsnickler Ale.  I know there’s a bottle waiting in my basement just in case I get Belsnickled.  Cheers guys…great beer & great show.

Breaker Brewing Belsnickler Bottles

OK So I just love saying that and I’ll find any excuse to do so.  Here’s Chris filling some bottles….”for your holiday enjoyment.”
