Now on Tap
Dave's Butt Juice
Belgian Pale Ale
7.85% ABV
The newest beer as a part of our Patron Inspiration Series is dedicated to our good friend and most loyal patron Dave Kennedy. Dave and I go way back to our days of playing basketball and football together in middle school and even though we've gone off and done our own things throughout the years we've always remained close. It was even easier for Dave to wanna remain close when I started brewing my own beer and needed willing friends to test it. With the exception of my wife, Dave has undoubtedly consumed (and expelled) more Bashore Brewing beer than any other person I know. I don't know if I've made a beer that Dave hasn't like. I'm not sure if he's a gluten for punishment or if its just because its free (minus tips). Regardless, on so much more than a brewing level Dave has been a great friend throughout the last 15 years of my life and I was proud to brew him whatever beer he wanted to have his name on it. Of course being the guy that he is all Dave said was, "go crazy, I have faith in you".
What came from that little bit of encouragement was Dave's Butt Juice! I can honestly say, this may be the best hoppy beer I've ever made. Overall, the beer is very well balanced, hoppy and malty, but neither are overwhelming to the point were it becomes annoying. The crazy thing about this beer is that its a Belgian Pale Ale, so it has a little bit of a fruity backbone. In addition, it has lactobacillus in it which gives it a little bit of a lemony funkiness. To round it out I set the beer on Star Fruit for a little over a month which gives it a really refreshing after taste. At 7.85% its strong enough to give you a rough time, but the alcohol is concealed so well, I think I could drink it all night. We should have this on tap at St. Patty's Day this year and if your lucky enough to share a pint (or foo foo glass) with Dave........be sure to tell him you would drink his butt juice above anyone else's!
Cheers Buddy!
