Busy times here in New Ulm. The elusive Schmaltz Alt is being packaged this week to be ready for a late Dec/early Jan release. They’ll be bringing a special Fass of Schmaltz Alt to the Groveland Tap on Monday, December 22nd for a 6:00pm tapping.
The first batch of the new Schell Bock will be brewed this week. Schell Bock will be a limited release available Feb 2, 2009. Brewed with 10 different malts and a proprietary German yeast strain, Schell Bock will weigh in at 16 Plato and 24 IBUs.
For some reason, Schmaltz Alt never left the shelves since last year in Hudson and Cellars in woodbury. Not overally fresh at this point though. Im guessing the Bock is different then the Carmel Bock? Will it be bottled ?
Hey Trav- Yes Schell Bock is different, and yes it will be bottled. By the way, Stout is also coming out in 12 packs.
Sounds great!
So does that mean the Caramel Bock is dead?
Yippee! Schmaltz Alt is one of my favorites of theirs.
Caramel Bock has been gone for almost a year. It will still be served at Bock Fest.
I thought they just moved carmel bock to a seasonal? Better get that web site changed!
