NOW ON TAP! - 542 Winter Warmer

542 WINTER WARMER

7.9% ABV // 50 IBU // 1.070 OG

full body + fruity + smooth & balanced

A richly flavored, full-bodied Imperial Alt style ale. This delicious seasonal is fermented cold, which allows the deep malt tones to really shine. The balance in this beer comes from a heavy dry hop of Ahtanum and a touch of Mosaic which round out the malt and provide notes of stone fruit and fresh cut flowers.

HOPS:
Ahtanum, Cascade, Chinook, Mosaic
MALT:
2-Row Pale, C-120, Carafa, Caramunich, Munich, Wheat

The Newest Member of the Family

We just received our latest equipment delivery: our grain silo. With a capacity of 60,000 lbs., the grain silo will save tons of waste, literally. The non-recyclable malt bags we were using are no longer necessary — each fill of the silo saves over 1000 bags. That’s over 300 lbs of waste. Not only will we reduce waste, we’ll also save labor. Transferring grain from the silo into the grist mill takes less time and effort than opening and emptying individual bags. We're stoked to start using it to streamline our brewing process and reduce waste.

SURVIVAL DRIVE - Help Bellingham Youth Stay Warm This Fall

SurvivalDrive

Outdoor gear is “leisure gear” for some – but for young people sleeping outside, it is essential for survival. Help homeless youth stay warm this winter by donating in-demand items to Northwest Youth Services during October Survival Drive. Make a donation at any of the participating breweries: Aslan Brewing Co.,Boundary Bay Brewery, Chuckanut Brewery, Kulshan Brewing Co., and Wander Brewing.

Northwest Youth Services provides housing and wrap-around support services to young people age 13 to 24 in Whatcom and Skagit County. The nonprofit’s mission is to collaborate with at-risk, runaway, and homeless youth to foster self-reliance. Their vision is that all young people have a place to belong: to be safe, heard, and valued.

On Tuesday, October 4, each participating brewery will kick off the month-long drive with a “Drink Out” fundraising event: 10 percent of drink sales for that day will benefit Northwest Youth Services’ Detour Street Outreach Program.

NOW ON TAP! - Rocky Horror Pumpkin Porter

Rocky Horror Pumpkin Porter

5.3% ABV // 30 IBU // 1.056 OG

medium body + pumpkin spices + roasty

Rocky Horror Pumpkin Porter is a traditional style brown porter, with pumpkin and spices added. This once wildly popular style in the UK is often an afterthought in modern craft brewing. Its deep, roasty, and complexly refined base sets the stage for pumpkin, cinnamon, vanilla beans, and all spice to provide all of the familiar flavors of pumpkin pie.

HOPS:
Sterling
MALT:
British Pale, C-60, Carafa, Chocolate, Munich, Wheat

NOW ON TAP! - Festbier

Festbier

5.1% ABV // 20 IBU // 1.047 OG

medium body + malty + balanced

A fall classic which we brewed to help celebrate the change of seasons. This style has morphed several times over the centuries, once more similar to a Marzen, now brewed more closely to an Export Lager. A pale golden brew with a structured malty-ness that is complimented well by a delicate bitterness and a clean, dry finish.

HOPS:
Saaz, Sterling
MALT:
Vienna, Wheat

NOW ON TAP! - Azacca Fresh Hop

Azacca Fresh Hop IPA

6.0% ABV // 50 IBU // 1.056 OG

medium body + pungent + unfiltered

This single malted IPA is hopped with fresh Azacca hops from Roy Farms in Yakima Valley, delivered from the source to the boil kettle the very same day. Notes of huckleberry, and mint accentuate the pungency of the beer. While not a display of overusing fresh hops, this IPA showcases an appropriate usage to create an intense flavor/aroma experience.

HOPS:
Azacca, Chinook, Mosaic
MALT:
Floor Malted Maris Otter

NOW ON TAP! - 10,000 Battle Axes

10,000 Battle Axes

9.9% ABV (WINE) 8.7% ABV (WHISKEY) // 40 IBU // 1.080 OG

complex body + chocolate & molasses notes + 100% barrel aged

This dual release was once, and still fundamentally is, the same beer. A Belgian Strong Dark, fermented in stainless, then split into rye whiskey and Cab Sauv barrels. Each version was elegantly altered by the wood in which it slumbered for 10 months. The rye whiskey version, strong handed and American, aged on top of Aji Limo peppers, accentuates the whiskey burn. The Cab Sauv version, delicate and complex, continued its fermentation with a culture of Brettanomyces, has deep layers of dried fruit and earth.

HOPS:
Nugget
MALT:
2-Row Pale, Black Malt, C-120, Carafa, Chocolate, Munich, Wheat
Adjuncts:
Aji Limo peppers (whiskey version)

NOW ON TAP! - Black Gold (Blackberry Kolsch)

Black Gold (Blackberry Kölsch)

4.4% ABV // 13 IBU // 1.042 OG

light body + fresh blackberries + mild

Brewed specifically for Bellingham Beer Week 2016, this Kölsch style ale was conditioned on 200lbs of fresh organic blackberries. The fruit turned this once straw colored beer pink, and gave it a subtle, yet defined fruit note. A mild acidity gives way to a beautifully balanced sweetness that perfectly defines this brew.

HOPS:
Czech Saaz, Sterling
MALT:
Continental Pilsner
Adjuncts:
Blackberries

NOW ON TAP! - Centennial Fresh Hop

Centennial Fresh Hop

5.6% ABV // 181 IBU // 1.056 OG

medium body + piney + bitter

Our first fresh hop beer of 2016 was brewed with 50 lbs of Centennial hops grown in a unique coastal micro-climate in Northern California. These Centennials provide intense aromas and flavors of pine which dominate in the beer. Calculated at an astounding 181 IBUs (although we highly doubt its actually that bitter), this beer is an example of what woodsy, piney and dank hops have to offer when used fresh and in the right proportions.

HOPS: Azacca, Centennial, Chinook, Mosaic
MALT: 2-Row Pale, Brittish Pale, Vienna

NOW ON TAP! - Westy Altbier

Westy Altbier

5.8% ABV // 30 IBU // 1.054 OG

malty + crisp + medium body

Brewed in the Sticke (shtick-uh) Alt style, this is a stronger, bigger-bodied variation of the traditional Altbier from the Westfalia region of Germany. A combination of caramel and Munich malts contribute a nutty sweetness with notes of toffee. Fermentation at a cool temperature creates a clean, refreshing character to balance the complex malt profile. This malt-forward beer is punctuated with hops that are floral and slightly-spicy.

HOPS: Cascade, Palisade, Sterling
MALT: 2-Row Pale, C-120, Carafa, Caramunich, Munich, Wheat

NOW ON TAP! - Nectarine Farmer

NECTARINE FARMER (SAISON WITH NECTARINES)

5.8% ABV // 24 IBU // 1.048 OG

medium body + juicy + zippy

We infused our Frances Farmer! Made in the Dupont style, this classic representation of a farmhouse ale is light in color with a soft mouthfeel complemented with lots of carbonation. It was fermented and conditioned with 50 lbs of organic white nectarines which add a subtle, yet complex fruit note to this refreshing brew.

HOPS: Czech Saaz, Sterling
MALT: Pilsner, Wheat

NOW ON TAP! - I Am Gruit!

I AM GRUIT! (BELGIAN STYLE GRUIT)

6.0% ABV // N/A IBU // 1.050 OG

clean + citrus zest + foccacia bread notes

Named for the lovable extraterrestrial tree giant, Groot, this unhopped herbed ale contains lemon peel, pink peppercorn, and rosemary paired with a blend of pilsner and wheat malt. Gruit is the mixture of herbs, spices, and roots used to flavor wort in the early years of brewing before hops were popularized. The ingredients augment the fruity fermentation profile, present a clean, dry, bready character, and emulate the spicy hop profile that may be often be found in a classic saison — though this brew is far from traditional.

HOPS: None
MALT: Acidulated, Pilsner, Wheat

NOW ON TAP! - Summer Solar Ale

Summer Solar Ale

5.9% ABV // 35 IBU // 1.051 OG

medium body + pink grapefruit + bright

A special beer made in collaboration with Itek Energy and Western Solar to help raise funds for a solar panel system for Lydia Place. This zippy and bright wit-style beer is delicately hopped with a combination of Ahtanum, Chinook and Palisade hops, then conditioned with fresh, organic pink grapefruit for a subtle citrus addition. Its dry yet juicy body is complemented well by a complex, spicy finish.

HOPS: Ahtanum, Chinook, Palisade
MALT: 2-Row Pale, Acidulated, Wheat

Summer Solar Ale: Empowering Lydia Place

Aslan is teaming up with Western Solar Inc. and itek Energy to roll out Summer Solar Ale next week. It's a dry, refreshing, hoppy, hazy, grapefruity pale ale, perfect for summer. And it'll help raise funds for a solar panel system for Lydia Place, saving them over $53k in energy savings and rebates over 25 years.

Lydia Place has been a local provider of housing and case management services to homeless households for over 26 years. Not only will adding solar panels reduce emissions and save energy costs, it will help support a vital community effort to end homelessness. This is the kind of community partnership we live for at Aslan.

Recently, Lydia Place successfully raised the funds to open Baker Place, a permanent housing program where the panels will be installed. Baker Place will provide a safe, secure and collaborative living environment for up to seven homeless women at a time. The campus also includes two additional buildings that are owned and operated by Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault Services.

Join us June 30 at 6pm for the Summer Solar Ale Release Party. Support clean energy and community empowerment by drinking delicious beer. There’s no better way to kick off summer!

BACK ON TAP - Disco Lemonade

DISCO LEMONADE BERLINER WEISSE

4.5% ABV // 4 IBU // 1.042 OG

light body + effervescent + tart

This refreshingly sour wheat beer is brewed to style, which dates back to the Middle Ages and is often referred to as "The People’s Champagne." The tartness of this beer will bring out hints of lemon, while the generous amount of wheat will round out the body lending a remarkable similarity to lemonade. Enjoy as is or add a shot of Raspberry syrup for a twist!

HOPS: Hallertau
MALT: Pilsner, Wheat
