New Brew News – June 27, 2016

Brewery: Bur Oak Brewing Company
Location: Columbia, MO
Name of Beer: Golden Ryetio
Beer Style: Belgian Style Golden Ale
ABV: 6.0%
Our Thoughts: We've reviewed plenty of Bur Oak beers on the site and they're definitely brewing some good beers. This one seems as though it will follow suit. I mean...they used the Fibonacci sequence to create the grain bill for cryin' out loud! That's some next level stuff right there.
 
Brewery: Perennial Artisan Ales
Location: St. Louis, MO
Name of Beer: Von Pampelmuse
Beer Style: Fruit Beer
ABV: 4.2%
Our Thoughts: Von Pampelmuse will be a wheat ale with grapefruit and mandarin orange. The low ABV and combination of sweet, bitter and acidic fruits are sure to make this one a crushable and refreshing summer thirst quencher.
 
Brewery: Schlafly Beer
Location: St. Louis, MO
Name of Beer: Imperial Oktoberfest Lager
Beer Style: Oktoberfest
ABV: 8.0%
Our Thoughts: As a quick frame of reference, Schlafly's regular Oktoberfest is 5.5% ABV but this one kicks it up a notch. Yes, we know it's hard to think ahead to the fall because of how god awful hot it's been outside but October is just 96 days away. A toasty, malty Oktoberfest that clocks in at 8% ABV? We can definitely think of worse ways to welcome the impending change to cool weather.
 
Brewery: 4 Hands Brewing Company
Location: St. Louis, MO
Name of Beer: Leisure Rules
Beer Style: Fruit Beer
ABV: 4.5%
Our Thoughts: The thing about 4 Hands is that they're not afraid to try anything once. This beer is brewed with peach, pineapple and pomegranate. Will they work well together? We have no clue. But you can bet that if it's pumping through their draft lines, it's going to be worth tasting.
