I'm so excited I can hardly contain myself. I just got back from Wegman's with a new (to me) beer. It's called
Palo Santo Marron (beer advocate link).
The label reads:
An unfiltered, unfettered, unprecedented Brown Ale aged in handmade wooden brewing vessels. The caramel and vanilla complexity unique to this ale comes from the exotic Paraguayan Palo Santo wood from which these tanks were crafted. At 10,000 gallons each, these are the largest wooden brewing vessels built in America since before Prohibition. It's all very exciting. We have wood. Now you do too.
I cannot wait to try this. THe only thing holding me back is that it just went into the fridge. Did I mention it's a 12%abv beer? The only downside is it cost me about $13.50 for a 4-pack.
We also picked up a Stone Ruination IPA. Guaranteed tasty.
