20th Anniversary Raven Special Lager Premium, RavenBeer
Judges Ratings 
Description 

We took our award winning flagship beer The Raven, jacked it up with more malt and hops but backed out the darker malts to lighten up the color and added Columbus hops to the boil. This gave us exactly what we wanted- more body, more mouth feel, some hoppiness balanced with the increase in malt, higher alcohol but with a much lighter colored beer that's deceptive when compared to our classic Raven Special Lager. Poe was always deceptive and seldom predicable. We showed this with our black Dark Usher, an unusual dark Kölsch that is as clean and light as any Kölsch and now Poe again comes true to form with this premium lager; visually light, but not light in taste and body. Light , but rich, full of flavor, a queer deception, typical of the master of the macabre.

Description 

Devil’s Advocate begs the question: What happens when you take a ton (literally) of Pilsen malt, put it through a decoction mash, boil it up, add another 500 lbs of Belgian candy and cane sugar, and then add some of Duvel’s world famous yeast? The answer: A spicy, sweet, and dangerously drinkable Belgian golden strong ale.

Bent Paddle Brewing Co-Founders Colin Mullen and Byron Tonnis Talk Cold Press Black

We spoke with Bent Paddle Brewing Co-Founders Colin Mullen and Byron Tonnis about Cold Press Black.

BC: Who came up with this beer’s recipe?
We came up with the beer's base recipe, and Eric Faust from Duluth Coffee Company provided the Cold Press recipe.

BC: What’s your favorite aspect of this beer (flavor, aroma, etc.)?
This beer is not only wonderful to drink but also tells a greater story of our local partnership philosophy. The roasted barley and chocolate malts used in our Black Ale complement the addition of coffee.

BC: Where does this beer’s name come from?
The name is purely descriptive – it’s Cold-Press coffee in our Black Ale

BC: Is this your “desert island beer?”
No -- but if there was a “dessert island” it might be.

BC: Can you describe this beer in 10 words or less?
Smooth, chocolaty, semi-roasted black ale infused with cold-press coffee.

BC: Who came up with this beer’s recipe?
We did.

I really appreciate the balance that this beer showcases. Each ingredient category (malt, hops, yeast, water) is presented in a way that really exemplifies our brewing philosophy.

BC: Where does this beer’s name come from? 
14 Degrees is the angle of a many bent shaft canoe paddles

BC: Is this your “desert island beer?”
No – but if I built a rustic “bushcraft” brewery on an island I would try to brew this for a change of pace.

BC: Can you describe this beer in 10 words or less? 
Balanced with toasted malt and accents of citrus and pine.

BC: Do you know a story – or have a personal story – that revolves around this beer?
