Silver City Brewery is releasing four very special beers for Valentine’s Day this year. This Thursday, they release four barrel-aged beers: Strange Love, Motor Boater, Time Goddess, and French Kiss. These beers are available individually or as part of a special gift pack.
Here are the details from the brewery:
SILVER CITY BREWERY VALENTINES SERIES 2017, FEBRUARY 2ND RELEASE
A now-annual tradition at Silver City Brewery, our Valentine’s Series of beers incorporate a host of devilishly delectable flavors, encapsulated within some of the rarest, most limited ales produced by the brewery. Three of the beers are deep, rich porters and stouts have been aged in bourbon barrels, and the fourth is a delightfully refreshing saison supplemented by whimsically romantic flavors.
Each of the beers will be available individually or as part of a special, collector’s set for $59.99 including a set of chocolate truffles, each piece carefully crafted with each beer by local, Poulsbo chocolatier ChocMo. The collector’s sets are a limited edition of 72.
Coinciding with the bottle release on the 2nd, between 2pm-4pm, ChocMo owner Peter Crabtree will conduct a special sampling of these truffles along with each of the limited release beers.
