The New Year has Started!

Everyone here at Twisted Pine Brewing is still flying high and excited to for a bigger and better year, 2012!  Not only is our new Marketing Plan in full force but we’re also getting ready to increase production.  We’ve acquired a few new fermentation and conditioning tanks, thus increasing our beer output by nearly 40% – how much better could it get?! Just wait…  Not only have we added these excited new efforts but we also have a new advanced filter system, decreasing our filtration time but with better yields! That’s what we call a win-win situation!

And not only that but we have one more exciting improvement!  We have a new canning line, giving us the opportunity to produce nice, big, tall, 16oz Tall Cans.  We’re going to instate this exciting line with, Hoppy Boy!  Along with the new Hoppy Cans, we also are introducing a new “Artisan Ale Series” each month – so stay tuned for some tasty, artsy, very limited beers!

Artisan Ale Project

 
Employees and fans of Twisted Pine Brewing Company are eagerly awaiting the upcoming calendar switch, as the brewery plans on kicking off the year 2012 in style.  The Twisted staff is excited about the launch of its Artisan Ale Project, a year-long celebration of the artistic creativity which makes Colorado unique.
 
For the Artisan Ale Project, Twisted Pine developed twelve distinct new beers and then enlisted the help of a dozen talented Colorado artists for artwork to adorn the labels.  On the first Saturday of every month in 2012, the brewery will introduce a small batch of one of the ales at a special release-party which will double as an art show for that month’s featured artist.  The Artisan ales will come in sleek, black 750ml glass bottles and will mark the brewery’s first foray into that size packaging.  Quantities will be limited, especially for the barrel-aged beers in the series.  Distribution of the bottles will be restricted to Colorado accounts and the Twisted Pine ale house will have each new beer on tap for as long as supplies last.  January’s lead-off entry is an American cream-style stout aged in bourbon barrels.  The beer, known as Surreal Stout, will feature artwork by Allison Boozer of Denver.  Other Artisan ales will include an Imperial India-style black ale, a high-octane braggot, a black saison and a barrel-aged sour brown.  “We’re part of a very artistic community here in Colorado,” remarks Logistics Manager Justin Tilotta, “and in this case we’re getting our brewers to feed off that creativity and produce something that, in turn, gives back to that community by offering these artists an opportunity to reach a wider audience.”

Northstar Imperial Porter Returns!

As winter settles in around Boulder, Colorado, fans of Twisted Pine Brewing Company are bristling with the excitement that surrounds the annual release of the brewery’s Northstar Imperial Porter.  The Baltic-style porter will make its 2011 debut on December 1st to a select few ticket holders for the vertical tasting which coincides yearly with the beer’s release.  The highly regarded ale will be available to the public at large beginning December 2nd

 
Northstar, which carries a 98 on ratebeer.com, is black as a moonless night and gives off an aroma of toffee and dark fruit laced with licorice.  Once the porter hits the palate, the tongue dances to notes of chocolate-covered raisins which harmonize well with subtle traces of roasted nuts and molasses.  The beer is dry enough to punctuate the flavors with a crisp finish, while just silky enough to leave a stamp of the epic experience behind for a while.  An ABV of 9.1% provides a slight warming glow that grows up the chest as the ale drops in the glass.  Northstar was awarded a gold medal at the 2010 Colorado State Fair, a silver in the 2006 World Beer Cup, and a bronze in 2008’s State Fair.
 
A great beer for the cellar, Northstar ages gracefully, which has led to the increasing popularity and decreasing availability of tickets for the brewery’s fourth annual vertical tasting.  Starting with the 2004 vintage, participants will have the opportunity to sample nearly every version since, plus a few other porter varieties that the brewers have created for the occasion, all tastefully paired with small bites of food, cleverly crafted for accompaniment by the Twisted kitchen. 
 
In addition to state-wide availability in Colorado, this year’s Northstar will find its way to Texas, Florida, Missouri, New Mexico, Nebraska and Louisiana.

Twisted Pine Brewing Company will be celebrating 16 years of hand-crafting pure malt ales this summer with a colossal anniversary party on Saturday, July 16th from 2-7p.

The event will feature over 20 specialty beers including an array of seasonal and aged varieties and the exclusive release of Bough Breaker Barleywine; a strong and rich brew hopped to 120 IBUs with Amarillo hops. In addition to an array of unique beers, there will be plenty of ale-infused grilled food and live music all afternoon. Musical artists include Danny Shafer, Holden Young and Hot Soup.

“We’ve worked hard to get to where we are and as we continue to grow we’re able to brew and bottle more and more unique and original beers, Bough Breaker being the next of this series,” imparts brewery owner, Bob Baile. Bough Breaker pours a deep, rich red color with aromas of citrus hops, dark fruit and light toffee. While delectable to drink the day it’s bottled, Bough Breaker will only become more enchanting with aging and cellaring.

“We’ve come a long way since 1995,” reminisces Bob, “But we will always follow the practices of community support and involvement this company was founded on. After all, it is our values, culture, staff and ingenuity in brewing that has brought us here today and will sustain us in the future. On our sweet 16, I raise a glass to these tenets and say, ‘what else can I ask for?’” Twisted Pine’s anniversary party will take place in the brewery’s parking lot at 3201 Walnut St. in Boulder from 2-7p on Saturday, July 16th. Tickets are on sale for $25 each and are available here or at the Twisted Pine Ale House.
