Great news! Our Imperial Stout and Dopplebock are now bottled. Like our other beers, they are in 22oz amber bottles and are currently available at Amos Howards Brew Pub and the Olde Hickory Tap Room, both in Hickory, NC. The Imperial Stout is 10.6% ABV and the Dopplebock is 9%, so be careful boys & girls.

*Please note that this is NOT the barrel aged stout that was available earlier. Still, Very Good!
Cheers all!
The Hickory, NC 2009 Holiday Parade will be the first official appearance of our Trolley! Hickory's annual holiday parade is Sat., December 5th and starts at 4pm. The route runs along 1st Ave NW, between 4th St NW & Center St., then along Main Ave between Center St. and 4th St.
Our trolley is decorated for the season and will be accompanied by local jazz musician Nathan Hefner! And there might even be... CANDY! For good boys and girls, of course.
We're very excited to participate in the great community event. Hope to see lots of friends there, and at the Olde Hickory Tap Room after, for some Christmas Ale!
The Olde Hickory Brewery is pleased to join The Duck Rabbit Craft Brewery and Foothills Brewing in announcing the release of their first collaboration, “Olde Rabbit’s Foot.” The special limited release is a Bourbon-Barrel-Aged Imperial Stout brewed with honey and cocoa nibs, this 10.13% ABV beer is crafted from wort from all three craft breweries which was aged in very rare 23 year old bourbon barrels.
Olde Rabbit's Foot will be released at Foothills Brewing in Winston-Salem on Sat. December 12th at 11am. Each visitor will be limited to 4 of the 22oz bottles and with only 694 bottles available, the entire production is expected to sell out quickly. Each bottle will be $20.
We hope to see you there.
Cheers!
We'll be on the road let again to another beer event at the end of November. Triangle Brewing Co. in Durham, NC is hosting the 3rd Annual Black Friday Cask Festival on Friday, November 27th from 3-8pm. Tickets are currently on sale and may be purchased online here.
The ticket price includes NC cask ales (an experience worth the ticket price alone), plus food from local Durham restaurants, live music and a commemorative glass. All proceeds benefit the NC Brewers Guild (www.ncbeer.org), an organization dedicated to promoting and supporting local craft breweries.
The official sit for the event is www.trianglebrewery.com/black_friday.html, but a more current list of participating breweries may be found at the beerinator.com forums here.
We look forward to seeing everyone there!
Cheers!
We are working on yet another very limited production brew! This time it's an imperial stout...here's a brief description:
Blacker than night, stouter than stout is our imperial stout! Brewed with a lot of malt and a touch of local honey, Imperial Stout is rich and robust with deep, deep notes of chocolate and espresso. A few sips and you will think you are the Czar of all Russia! Za zdarovye. 10.5% alc/vol
That's from the bottle label which is still in the design process. That's right, even though this is a very, very limited production beer we've decided to bottle some of it. More info to come when we know an exact release date...
Cheers!
