Whitehorse Brewing has teamed up with Sarris Candies to make a seasonal beer for Valentine无毛视频檚 Day 无毛视频� a chocolate covered strawberry stout.
Susan and George Walker, owners of the brewing company had been thinking about doing a special Valentine无毛视频檚 beer for months, Susan said.
无毛视频淚 love chocolate covered strawberries,无毛视频� she said. 无毛视频淎nd collaborations are really popular, so we brought Bill some samples of our beer.无毛视频�
They asked Bill Sarris, owner of Sarris Candies, if he无毛视频檇 want to supply the chocolate part.
无毛视频淭his is new to us, so it was interesting to see how they would take our product and make it theirs,无毛视频� Sarris said. 无毛视频淚 really wondered how they would do it.无毛视频�
They used an oatmeal stout and used about 20 pounds of Dutch cocoa powder, the same cocoa Sarris uses for its chocolate. They included 132 pounds of strawberry puree. It was a three-week process to make the 5 barrel batch, or 155 gallons.
A special release of the beer will be at both the Washington and Berlin Whitehorse taprooms Friday, with a limited amount of six-packs for sale out of the taprooms only.
无毛视频淚 think it无毛视频檚 going to be busy,无毛视频� said Lisa Black, manager of Whitehorse Brewing at The Street in North Strabane Township. 无毛视频淲hen we posted about it, we already had people saying they were going to have to come try it.无毛视频�
The beer will also be available as a draft at multiple bars and restaurants in Washington County, including Liberty Pole, President无毛视频檚 Pub, West End Bottle Shop, The Meadows Casino, Cannon无毛视频檚 Chophouse in Southpointe, and the Union Grill. The beer is also available as a draft at certain bars in Somerset, Cambria, Westmoreland and Allegheny counties.
