IN THE SPIRIT OF SKULLY BARREL No. 3
Released March 2015
Each year we are inspired to  produce a Whiskey Barrel-Aged  feral Stout that complements the  character of the freshly-emptied  barrels and our farmhouse yeast  blend. This time we were fortunate  to acquire Colorado Whiskey barrels  that had notes of sweet caramel,  robust oak, and crisp Rocky  Mountain water.

SKULLY BARREL No.25 A.K.A. SALTED SUMAC SOUR
Released April 2015
The tiny red drupes of the Longhorn  Sumac are crushed to release  flavors of lightly floral bright citrus  often used to elevate a variety of  drinks and foods. The vivid acidic  notes of this uncommon spice  combine with the Leipzig Gose  (pronounced Gose-uh) sea-salted  beer style to inspire this tart and  savory golden ale. Unusually  refreshing!

SKULLY BARREL No.26 SALTED MANGO CHILI SOUR
Released May 2015
To reveal the intricate hidden  character of Mexico’s Ataúlfo mango  cultivar, also called the honey  mango, we’ve cut their natural  sweetness by adding tropical heat  from habanero chillies, tart acidity  from our white wine barrel-aged  sour golden ale, and complex  minerality from sea salt. There’s a  message from the mango in every  bottle.

SKULLY BARREL No.27 DRY HOPPED DARK SOUR ALE
Released May 2015
Inspired by the hoppy Cascadian  Dark Ales of the Pacific Northwest,  this American Oak barrel aged blend  weighed in at a hefty 108 IBUs on  brew day, and was then generously  dry-hopped with Washington grown  Citra, Simcoe, and Centennial just  before bottling. The resulting beer is  equal parts mysterious darkness  and revealing light. This is definitely  NOT a Black IPA; is there even such  a thing?

Inspired by the Gose style of salted sour beers, this sour mash golden ale was aged in white wine barrels. Next it spent extended aging on generous amounts of watermelon juice, which comes through in the nose and on the palette. The result is tart, dry, and luscious, like a ripe salted chunk of watermelon in a glass. SKULLY BARREL No.30 DRY HOPPED DARK SOUR ALE  Released June 2015

Cascara, or coffee cherries, are collected and sun-dried after the green coffee beans have been separated. This feral and sour amber ale was aged in red wine oak barrels and carefully blended with cascara from Novo Coffee Roasters of Denver for a tart, fruity taste that exhibits notes of rose hip, hibiscus, cherry, red currant, and tobacco with a slight but complex minerality from the addition of sea salt.       SKULLY BARREL No.28  A.K.A. CASCARA SOUR  Released June 2015
Each tamarind pod holds a sticky  sweet and sour fruit pulp that  contains a complex flavor  combination reminiscent of sun-  dried apricots, lemon zest, and dark  rich dates. To complement the tang  of the tamarind, we’ve added a hint  of lime, and paired it with our wine  barrel-aged sour red ale. The result  is both refreshingly balanced and  deceptively decadent.

For some time now, we've been  more than a bit intrigued by the  interplay between the acids that hop  additions contribute and the acids  that bacterial inoculation can  generate. For this exciting variation,  we've blended an American wine  barrel-aged wild and sour red ale  and combined it with some of our  favorite Northwest American hops.  Bitter, sour, hoppy, and funky.

SKULLY BARREL No.22 Sour Elderberry Ale
Released Jan. 2015
To rise to the challenge of the dark  and mysterious elderberry, we’ve  paired it with an array of dark roast  malts, then given the partners plenty  of time to mingle and marry inside  red wine barrels. The resulting sour  ale combines a serious side, that  lives to be evaluated, dissected, and  discussed; with a playful side that  only wants to roll in the Elderberry  bushes and forget about the world.
