I've got some down time while I brew 40 Rounds this morning. 40 Rounds is the full-bodied black saison that we're brewing 40 Rounds with our friends at the General in Logan Square. Expect darkness and smoke.

If you haven't been to the General yet than you have no right to call yourself a Willie Nelson fan. And you best call yourself a Willie Nelson fan.

We'll be releasing 40 Rounds in mid-October with a Maker's Mark barrel aged version coming later in the seasaon. Tony, the kitchen wizard over there at the General, will be spinning up some cuisine de la biere with our lovely potion as well. More on that soon.

But more pressing issues are at hand.

For you nice people in the suburbs we'll be doing a mini-tap take over at the king of all metal burger places, Kuma's in Schaumburg, next Friday, September 25th. We'll have 4 taps pouring including Orange Sunshine (Citrus Saison), Fnord (Wit), 2 Headed Dog (ESB), and Kallisti (Golden). Kuma's will be pouring the beer all day, but we'll be on hand to provide suggestions on bad decisions after 7pm.

Hey! We've got more shirts in at the web store. We've also got tin signs for sale. And, of course, you can always go to our website to find out everywhere you can get IBW beer.
