Deschutes High-Gravity Tasting - 6:00 PM Session

Deschutes Brewery, the nation's 6th largest craft brewer, is The Malt Shoppe's Brewery of the Month of May. As part of our continuing effort to provide opportunities to sample and purchase the most unique and exclusive beers around, we will be hosting an event to do just that. On Monday, May 18th, you can get a 4-ounce pour of four supremely limited beers from Deschutes' Reserve Series. A pair of Deschutes reps will be on hand to comment and discuss these four beers and guide you through the tasting. Here are the beers for Session 1.

The Abyss - It's dark. It's deep. It's mysterious. It's a stout brewed with licorice and molasses, then 33% of it is aged in oak and oak bourbon barrels.
Mirror Mirror - Born of a double batch of Mirror Pond Pale Ale, this is an inspired, barrel-aged barley wine layered with intriguing nuances.
Jubel 2015 - This strong ale has notes of toasted caramel, raisins, dates and figs are complemented by spicy and herbal hop aromas.
Black Butte XXVI - An Imperial Porter with Theo Chocolate's cocoa nibs, pomegranate molasses and Oregon cranberries that's then aged in bourbon barrels.

Seating is extremely limited - just 12 participants per session. And once sampling is over, each participant will have the opportunity to purchase a bomber of one of these extremely rare and highly sought-after beers. Participants also receive a glass from The Malt Shoppe and 10% off any purchase that evening.
