Runs until Sunday, March 16th, 2025

Barrel Aged Encore Week is Here! From Monday, March 10th, to Sunday, March 16th, Town Hall locations are serving up exclusive selections from the 2025 Barrel Aged Beer harvest. Each beer has been carefully crafted and aged to perfection, offering unique flavors and stories. Here’s what you can enjoy at each location:

Town Hall Station:

-Manhattan Reserve – Manhattan Reserve aged to maturity then moved to a second freshly dumped barrel for another aging cycle. It was deemed not ready in 2024 and allowed to age a 3rd cycle before this release in 2025. Very Very special, has been in wood nearly 3 years.

- Project 3106 -Belgian style strong brown ale aged in barrels with Belgian dark chocolate and Kumquats for tart citrus.

- Double Barrel Xtra Milk Stout- Strong milk stout aged to maturity in bourbon barrels then transferred to a second barrel for additional aging. Chocolate/fudge, bright citrus and baking spice.

-Czar Jack Star Barrel- This barrel of Czar jack was realized as extra special with unique characteristics from the other CJ barrels harvested in 2025. We put a Star on the barrel opted to release as a Single Barrel Special offering.

Town Hall Lanes:

-Manhattan Reserve-Belgian style Grand Cru aged in bourbon barrels with tart cherries from MI. Inspired by the whiskey version of the cocktail from WI.

-Buffalo Bock-Traditional German style Weizenbock (Wheatbock) aged in bourbon barrels. Toasted caramel, red fruits, malted wheat nutty sweetness marry to the banana notes from classic Bavarian German yeast. 

- Brandy Craig – This barrel housed Ky bourbon and then grape brandy for several years, then our brewers got it and chose portions of several vintage brews to highlight the complexities that were housed within. A year and a half of aging brings this sipper. 

-W.L. Butterball- Strong Belgian style Blonde ale aged in a KY bourbon single barrel not often found character featuring excessive pecan, butter-toffee, cherry, vanilla oak and light milk chocolate. Slightly reminiscent of the splendid bourbon scented candles highlighted in distillery gift shops.

Town Hall Tap:

-Port Ice Storm-Long aging of unique blend of vintage beers in a port barrel from overseas led to this delightfully fruity treat. We then allowed the beer to freeze after aging, leaving H2O ice crystals behind and concentrating the flavor and aroma.

- Port Ruby Barrel– Blend of vintage beers from our cellar and aged for nearly two years. This port barrel was loaded with goodness, make sure you drink both cool and warm for best experience.

-W.L. Butterball- Strong Belgian style Blonde ale aged in a KY bourbon single barrel not often found character featuring excessive pecan, butter-toffee, cherry, vanilla oak and light milk chocolate. Slightly reminiscent of the splendid bourbon scented candles highlighted in distillery gift shops. 

-Strawberry Stave- This wheat based beer was aged in a bourbon barrel that offered very appealing natural strawberry character. We listened to the barrel and allowed the aged produce to mature on an bed of strawberries.

Don’t miss your chance to enjoy these rare creations—available for a limited time only!
