“It’s hard to believe that it’s almost time to release this year’s Dark Charge. After last year, our team was fired up to create this beer, bigger and bolder than last. It’s going to be an amazing day of great beer,” said Jake Rouse, co-Ffounder and CEO at Braxton Brewing Company.
“We’re also thrilled to bring back the Winter Block Party, and we’ve invited several of our best friends in beer to create an amazing barrel aged guest tap lineup. Of course, it wouldn’t be Braxton unless we had a few surprises, so be on the lookout for those in the coming weeks!”
Dark Charge is a massive Bourbon Barrel-Aged Imperial Stout that showcases Kentucky’s heritage — Bourbon. This year’s edition was aged for an entire year in Kentucky Artisan Distillery barrels. Dark as the Covington night, this beer features notes of stone fruits, chocolate, coffee, oak, roasted malts, and umami. With an oil-like consistency, and tan head, it is bold enough to inspire you and strong enough to light up a city.
“The entire team and I are very excited for this year’s release,”said Evan Rouse, Co-Founder and Head Brewer at Braxton Brewing Company. “This year’s batch is even more special. It clocks in at 13.3% ABV, we have more bottles and more variants. You will not want to miss this!”
This is the second annual Winter Block Party for Braxton Brewing Co. Building off of last year’s incredible event, the Covington- based brewery is planning an even larger party this year.
