Ok, so this is kind of an odd thing to review. Why? Well we’ve kind of already reviewed it. Back in January, Roughtail released Batch 3 of their rotating Adaptation Series IPA and I reviewed it here. Well, much like us, everyone went pretty ape shit over how good that beer was and, being the […]
Read more "Review: Roughtail Everything Rhymes With Orange IPA"Here at Barrels and Mash, we drink our fair share of Bourbon barrel-aged beers… in fact, we drink some other people’s fair share too. Obviously we can say the same for Bourbon, so when New Holland dumped barrels of their Bourbon Barrel-Aged Dragon’s Milk Stout and refilled them with whiskey, we wanted to drink that […]
Read more "Review: New Holland Beer Barrel Aged Bourbon"You know normally these fields trips are pretty easy to write. We go to the brewery, I feel kind of awkward because I’m there in some kind of a weird journalistic capacity like I know what I’m doing (I don’t), then I go home and know exactly what I’m going to say when I sit […]
Read more "Barrels and Mash Field Trip: 405 Brewing"You know what’s good? A whiskey. You know what’s better? Three whiskeys! Pub W just rolled out their April whiskey flight and they were nice enough to invite us to help out with writing the tasting notes (the official sheet with our notes are at the bottom of this post). So last Monday we snagged a […]
Read more "The Jack Daniels flight at Pub W"Anthem just released Batch 2 of their Uroburos Stout aged in Bourbon Barrels (Elijah Craig barrels, to be exact), and to be honest we are very excited. This is Anthem’s largest bottle release to date, by a large margin, with almost 5,000 bottles rolling out of the Downtown OKC brewery. We were hanging out in their taproom […]
Read more "Anthem Bourbon Barrel Uroburos Batch 1 and Batch 2 Vertical"Next Thursday, April 7th, marks repeal day here in Oklahoma. It’s crazy to think that Prohibition lasted until 1959 in this state, and on the 57th anniversary of that great day there will be some cool things going down at Oak & Ore in the Plaza district. The Craft Brewers Association of Oklahoma will be […]
Read more "Repeal Day with The CBAO at Oak & Ore"When Kate found a bottle of Charbay S Whiskey for only $60, she just couldn’t pass it up, and my decision to marry her all those years ago was yet again justified. We’ve got a bottle of the Charbay R5 (distilled from Bear Republic Racer 5 IPA) which is one of my favorite bottles to […]
Read more "Barrels and Mash Cocktail: The Imperial Stout"Flights are a glorious thing (whiskey, beer, it’s all good). They’re a great way to sample multiple beverages without spending too much money and leaving too drunk (although that depends on how many flights you get, I guess). So when we heard that Pub W was starting a monthly whiskey flight we had to see what […]
Read more "Barrels and Mash Field Trip: Whiskey Flights at Pub W"A new BA stout from Prairie? Sign me up! It looks like only 50-ish cases of this were released between Oklahoma and Missouri, so it wasn’t the easiest thing in the world to find. Most were lucky to get a single bottle (myself included) which makes me sad, but hey, it’s just beer, right? Company: […]
Read more "Review: Prairie Artisan Ales Branson Jamboree"I’ve lived in Oklahoma pretty much all of my life, and I have to say, it’s not a bad place to be. We’ve got the claim to some real national treasures including Reba McEntire, Shannon Miller, Brat Pitt, Chris Gains, and of course, Hanson. Those kids that sang “MMMBop” all those years ago are now all […]
