BLACK & ORANGE 2014, Oct. 31st @ Bar Hop

Our annual Halloween party is a celebration of pumpkin ales and stouts/porters/etc, with a couple that are a bit of both! We’ve added an additional cider component this year (‘cause why the hell not?) with cool features from our friends at West Ave, Beaver Valley, Twin Pines & Spirit Tree. As always admission is free, costumes are encouraged and the event starts at 5pm. This will also be the release for the big batch of The Blood Of Cthulhu, a collab we did with our friends at Sawdust City a little while back! We brewed a pilot batch last Halloween and everyone involved liked it so much that we decided to scale it up! Draught list for the event:

1. Sawdust City x Bar Hop The Blood Of Cthulhu- Imperial Stout w/ Raspberries, Cranberries & Sour Cherries
2. Indie Ale House x Bar Hop Curse Of The Druids- Dark Pumpkin Ale
3. GLB x Bar Hop Sweet Zombie Jesus!- Peanut Butter Milk Stout
4. GLB x Bar Hop Hanlan’s Point- North American Porter w/ Coconut & Coffee
5. Amsterdam Gaslight- Pumpkin Brown Ale
6. Bellwoods Dry Stout w/ Cherries
7. West Ave. Scrumpkin- Pumpkin Cider
8. Indie Ale House Cuban Missile Crisis- Imperial Stout Aged In Rum Barrels
9. Nickel Brook Winey Bastard- Imperial Stout Aged In Pinot Noir Barrels
10. Sawdust City The XTC Version Was Better- Smoked Pumpkin Roggenbier
11. Spirit Tree Double Pagan- Crabapple Cider w/ Sumac
12. Amsterdam Full City Double Tempest- Imperial Stout w/ Coffee (Cask)
13. Flying Monkeys Paranormal- Imperial Pumpkin Ale
14. Beau’s Dark Helmut- Imperial Schwarzbier
15. West Ave. Spontaneity- Barrel Aged Sour Farmhouse Cider Blend
16. GLB Pumpkin Wound- Pumpkin Porter
17. St. Ambroise Citrouille- Pumpkin Ale
18. Twin Pines Hammer Bent Scrumpy- English Farmhouse Cider
19. Amsterdam Threepence Porter- English Porter
20. Oast House Country Bumpkin- Pumpkin Ale
21. Beaver Valley Bumbleberry Cider- Hard Cider w/ Raspberries, Blueberries, Blackberries, Rhubarb & Grapes
22. Flying Monkeys Nutmeg Vanilla Stout
23. Indie Ale House Pumpkin Abbey- Dark Belgian Pumpkin Ale
24. West Ave Black Helmet- Porter/Cider Blend w/ Smoked Apples (Nitro)
25. Nickel Brook Pissed Off Pete’s Pumpkin Porter
26. Grand River Highballer- Pumpkin Ale
27. GLB Apocalypse Later- Imperial Black IPA
28. Kensington Brewing Co. Home Grown Porter w/ Bourbon Soaked Oak Chips (Cask)

Edited to reflect that it will in fact be Amsterdam Full City Double Tempest and it will be cask.

Going to do my best to be there, hopefully it won't be as packed as the GLB/Amsterdam tap takeover was!
