What's On Tap? (Lexington & Indianapolis)

WHAT’S ON TAP?

Mellow Mushroom in Lexington, in addition to having excellent food, had over twenty beers on tap. I tried the following:

Schafly (St Louis) Winter ESB
Anderson Valley (California) Oatmeal Stout
“Dark Horse” Black & Tan: Guinness mixed with Kentucky Ale



On the way back from Kentucky at Centre Circle Mall in down town Indianapolis:
Counted at least three breweries here: Ram, Rock Bottom, and Aklatraz
Stopped at Ram, and addition to their usual offerings they had the following seasonals:
Kolsch, Java Stout, “Nutcracker” Hazelnut Porter, and “Steam Stack!”

Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale™
With a little creative curiosity, we used spent bourbon casks, fresh from decanting, and filled them with our very own Kentucky Ale. From barrels that once held the finest bourbons of Kentucky, we present Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale, a smooth, golden elixir unlike any other. Subtle yet familiar flavors of vanilla and oak are imparted to this special ale as it rests in the charred barrel. We attribute this to what the bourbon maker calls the “angel’s share”. Elegantly smooth and modestly carbonated, Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale is a fine sipping ale with the distinctive nose of a well-crafted Kentucky bourbon.
