What Is That? (Part 1)

This post is the first installment in our "what is that" series. It should be a long series, because there are a ton of things in a brewery that would make the average joe say, what is that.
So the answer is, it's the best coffee you've never had. It's coffee from Rise Up Coffee, the best coffee on the Eastern Shore and honestly the best I've ever had. And I like coffee (I really like coffee). Tim and his crew at Rise Up do an incredible job, and we're so lucky to be making beer with coffee this good. I've made coffee beers in the past (usually from that ubiquitous Seattle-based coffee chain) and it's no contest- Rise Up rules.
So, the coffee- it's cold steeping (keeps it less harsh and smoother), waiting to be blended with our Lucky 7 Porter as a special treat for folks visiting our tasting room in the next couple of weeks or stopping by our table at the St. Michaels Food and Wine fest next weekend. That's the only way anyone can get it- except Tim, who has a growler waiting for him.

  2. Thanks, Ms Yuqing, I had no idea Evolution was stirring up such interest in China. I'll have to figure out how to restrict your insightful replies... Thanks so much.

  3. Geoff - The growler sits in my minifridge as I type this. I'm finding English language to be limiting as I try to express my excitement. Joel and I are going to enjoy a "Supercharged" Lucky 7 this afternoon. I greatly appreciate the growler, my friend...and all the kind words about of coffee.
    Cheers,
    Tim
    PS - Keep me up to date on these expansion plans into the Chinese market - I hear they love a good porter over there.

  4. Wow! I've been saying for a long time that the shore needs another good brewery. Good for you guys! It is really awesome to see people like you and Tim really putting out quality products at a time when running a small business is a scary thing. I wish you the best and I can't wait to sample some of your brew.
