Brewery: Alpha Brewing Company |
Location: St. Louis, MO |
Name of Beer: Papaya Brett |
Beer Style: American Wild Ale |
ABV: 7.0% |
Our Thoughts: Alpha does a TON of barrel aged beers every year. The fruit being used in this one is what intrigues us most. When all is said and done, this one has an opportunity to be damn interesting and damn delicious. |

Brewery: Mother's Brewing Company |
Location: Springfield, MO |
Name of Beer: Black IPA |
Beer Style: Black India Pale Ale |
ABV: 6.8% |
Our Thoughts: Mother's doesn't get into STL stores but there are places around STL that you can pick up their beers with a drive of 30 minutes or less. This roasty and hoppy IPA will definitely be one we save the gas money for. |

Brewery: Mother's Brewing Company |
Location: Springfield, MO |
Name of Beer: English Tea Pale Ale |
Beer Style: English Pale Ale |
ABV: 4.8% |
Our Thoughts: This sounds like another one worth driving for. English pale ales are less hop forward than the American style. The addition of earl gray tea will work wonders in making this overlooked style a bit more complex. |

Brewery: Boulevard Brewing Company |
Location: Kansas City, MO |
Name of Beer: Collaboration No. 6 |
Beer Style: Specialty Beer |
ABV: 12.5% |
Our Thoughts: This beer will be a blend of some Boulevard beers and some Firestone Walker beers. Here are the beers and the percentage of the final beer that they will make up: Boulevard Bourbon Barrel Quad – 45%, Firestone Walker Stickee Monkee – 35%, Imperial Stout X – Tart Cherry (Whiskey Barrel-aged) – 10% and Firestone Walker Velvet Merkin – 10%. Yeah. We're sold. |
