 New Glarus says: “A bold rich smoky nose is created naturally with a blend of smoked malts from Bamberg, Germany and Chilton, Wisconsin as well as robust Wisconsin Rye. Special Ale yeast ferments this hazy deep amber brew in the bottle. This is a big smoked beer fermented with Turbinado sugar [...]  We have taken a few days to read and re-read John Conlin’s “guest post,” which we posted to this site a few days ago, and was posted on some others as well. To Ryan, his tune rang familiar after hearing John speak to the Associated Beer Distributors of Illinois in January. To the rest of [...]  New Glarus says: “This decadent Chocolate Abbey Ale is a lovely trifle for your senses. Brewed with a proprietary Belgian yeast and English Maris Otter Malt it is smooth and rich. Inspired by a recent tour of Europe and brewed with chocolate we enjoyed there. Subtle Segal Ranch hops promote the rich dark chocolate flavors [...] RYAN: This is a guest post, of sorts, from John Conlin. John runs Conlin Beverage Consulting.
