What the Barrel Remembers: Secrets of Aging, Blending, and Tasting Barrel-Aged Beer — Part 1

I write, read, promote, and share about Maryland Beer. Here is my latest piece, part of a 3-part series on barrel-aged beer titled What the Barrel Remembers: Secrets of Aging, Blending, and Tasting Barrel-Aged Beer — Part 1. I talk with Mike Tonsmeire about the Sapwood Cellars Brewery BA program. I hope you like it, perhaps gain a greater appreciation for these creations, and share your thoughts. https://marylandbeer.net/journal/what-the-barrel-remembers-part-1

RAR Nanticoke Nectar?

I can usually find this beer anywhere, but every liquor store from Baltimore to Severna Park suddenly seems out of it. Anyone know what’s going on?

Update: I reached out to them. Demand has been crazy high and they should be caught up in a week or two.

~4 hour layover in BWI: enough time to visit Sapwood Cellars?

Originally booked the layover to do a quick stop at the Guinness location, but saw that Sapwood wasn't too far off. Willing to pay for Lyft there and back. Would be a weekday afternoon.

Carry-on only, TSA Pre-Check. I usually do the whole 2 hours for security, etc. but I'm willing to push it a bit.

I don't believe I'll have a chance to visit the area any time soon again, so I'm hoping this is enough time to stop in a order a flight or two.

Ministry of Brewing Planetary Hazy IPA

Ministry of Brewing, out of Baltimore, MD, debuts a new IPA for distribution. A bold 7.7%, nearly a double, it packs a punch of El Dorado, Amarillo, and Australian grown Mosaic hops, delivering delicious notes of pine and navel orange to the palate. The nose would have you believe it would be much more stonefruit led, but orange is the dominant note here.

Super enjoyable, silky smooth.
