Beer #1 brewed by Cigar City Brewing Co. to be featured in The Rare Beer Club* — July 2014
This one’s going to be a big (9%+ abv) American IPA inspired from Cigar City’s Humidor Series Jai Alai IPA. It’ll be aged lightly on Spanish cedar and smaller amounts of spruce using an infusion method to reduce oxidation caused from barrel aging which is not optimal for hoppy beers. It’ll contain no less than 8 different hop varieties including Pacific Jade to tie the Spanish cedar as both have a white grapefruit expression, and Chinook to accent the spruce as both have a piney character.
Beer #2 brewed by The Bruery to be featured in The Rare Beer Club — Q3 Special Offer
It’s going to be a big barrel aged blended beer, north of 15% abv. It’ll be comprised of three of The Bruery’s prized beers, Bois, a bourbon barrel aged old ale, Black Tuesday, a massive bourbon barrel aged Imperial Stout, and Smokin' Wood, an imperial smoked porter, brewed with beachwood and cherrywood smoked malt, and aged in rye whiskey barrels. Cacao nibs from one of our favorite featured chocolatiers, Mindo Chocolates, will be added to one of the three beers’ barrels as its aged.
Beer #3 brewed by Shmaltz Brewing Co. to be featured in The Microbrewed Beer of the Month Club — Q3 Special Offer
Shmaltz is one of the more inventive breweries we’ve worked with over the years and after 17 years as a contract brewer, they’ve recently built their own playland of steel and concrete. They’re creating a new IPA for us that will combine amarillo, crystal, cascade, and other classics of the Pacific NW genre with an intended juicy citrus, passionfruit, and peachy hop profile. Shmaltz in fact means "chicken fat" in Yiddish - a classic indulgent comfort food - and also an irreverent yet nostalgic sense of humor so have fun with this one! L'Chaim!

Hmmm....Cedars in North America are genus juniperus (Eastern Red)or thuja (Western). Guess they may be using some exotic species of cedar in their beer.
ETA: Nevermind.....I see Spanish Cedar in the description.. Carry on.

Cedrela odorata is also known as Spanish cedar, Mexican cedar, and Cigar-box cedar (thus use by Cigar City)
