Wicked Weed Brewing to Pre-Sell and Release White Angel

June 25, 2015 1

Wicked Weed Brewing is set to pre-sell the third offering in the Angel Series; White Angel, Saturday, June
27th at 12pm (EST) via Brown Paper Tickets. Aged for a total of 10 months, this Barrel-Aged American Sour rested on a total of two and a half tons of locally harvested Muscadine and Scuppernog grapes as well as Albariño grape must over the course of its life in the barrel. Tawny with a bright orange hue and wild grape aromas, this bone-dry ale echoes the sec traditions of champagne while still expressing the balanced
tartness of American sour beers.

i got a text the other day from a friend. a fairly new friend, actually. someone that my wife and i have connected with, and all three of us have felt that this newly found friendship has the potential to be a great one. anyway, i received this text from the friend, who is experiencing an amazingly reflective time in her life right now, asking if we all wanted to get together for beers. the main reason? for her to share with someone all of her thoughts and feelings. she needed a sounding board, someone to just listen and be present with her.
