Fermentation Sensation!


Firestone Walker Brewery Tour - Shot with Canon 10D, Canon 50mm f1.8, ISO 400,1/60 @ f 2

This part of the tour was Very interesting. These were filled with Firestone Walker DBA. They actually fill the kegs with 10% of this and 90% from the steel fermentation tanks. They are one of 2 companies in the world that still ferment beer in barrels on a full time basis. I hear the 100% barrel version of DBA, that they have on tap there, is incredible!

No doubt. That's one of the big concerns I have if I were to leave the area. I'm having a pale ale today that was made with habeneros. How cool is that. It'll catch on in Japan soon enough.
Yum, makes me thirsty for a DBA! Or some Velvet Merlin, oh yeah that stuff is good. I am going to make it a point to have anniversary dinner at Firestone next month. I think I will hit the one south of me rather than the one north of me though. I will let you know the yummy stuff I try.

I love Velvet Merlin. I was just reading on their site that the barrel aged Velvet Merkin is going to be back in September! I think its definitely worth a drive up. The one in Buelton is much closer to you and its just off the freeway at Damassa. Have fun. :-)
