Now On Tap: 2/22/10

The Amazing Rando Manana and Cream Stout - 6.25% ABV

New on tap this week is the second beer in our Patron Inspiration Series. This beer is named for the creative master mind behind all of the fantastic artwork you see for every Bashore Brewing beer. The Amazing Rando is named for Mr. Randolph Clyde Flick II. I really believe that every creative label that Randy designs really adds to the appeal of every beer that we create and in most cases the artwork is probably better than the beer. Up until now all we could do is say, "thanks Randy, that looks awesome". This beer has given me the chance to create something that I believe Randy will really enjoy. You see Randy is your typical beer drinker with a few exceptions. The majority of the time we go to the bar Randy will ask Irene or I what he should order and then he will promptly get a Miller Lite or a Labatt, but Randy would be the first to tell you that he is a liquor drinker.....not really a beer drinker. The exception to this rule for Randy is Guinness. Randy enjoys a pint of Guinness as much as anyone I've ever met......in fact Randy enjoys most mellow stouts almost as much as he enjoys a White Russian.





Since I'm no good at making liquor I thought why not make him a mellow, yet flavorful stout and serve it on nitro tap in the BrewHaus. Thus was born The Amazing Rando Manana and Cream Stout. This is a beer I'm very proud of as it was my first effort at a Milk Stout and I think it turned out pretty good. The Amazing Rando is a creamy, sweet stout with several layers of flavor. The smell is that of coffee and bananas and the flavor follows suit with the added taste of chocolate and roasted grains. It is for all purposes a session stout that is meant to be drank much it the same way you would drink a Guinness.......all night long. I really hope for everybody who drinks this beer will take the time to appreciate the effort that went into making it and also the effort that goes into every label that Randy designs. From all of us, THANK YOU RANDY, THAT LOOKS AWESOME!!!!
