Gnarly Barley Brewing Co. Releases Two Brews

Gnarly Barley Brewing Co. Releases Two Brews

Gnarly Barley Brewing Co. in Hammond, Louisiana has announced two releases, one called Bad Abbot, a Belgian-style Quad, and the other called SoGnar, a hopped-up Double IPA. Full details are below.


Bad Abbot is a gentle beast, coming in at 14% but drinking with an unexpected docility. Fruity esters on the nose give way to malty overtones of caramel and raisin that clean up into a surprisingly dry finish. The medium body enhances the nuanced sugars, avoiding a cloying or syrupy finish, instead portraying a pleasing array of dark fruits and molasses. A delicate pathway paved with secrets, where good intentions meld with desire.

A deep Double IPA filled to the brim with a clever combo of tropical hops, resulting in big notes of pineapple, mango, and grapefruit with an ever so delicate waft of dankness on the back end. A sturdy body with a dash of oats for complexity and an even-keeled finish verging on dryness.

Look for this big juicy boy in stores and on tap near you for a limited time beginning Monday, March 7th!
