The Tenth Nail

MULTI-BARREL AGED IMPERIAL STOUT WITH LICORICE AND CINNAMON BARK

It was a long, long time ago but I can still remember how that The Pine Box used to make me smile. And I knew that it had the taps, the style, the vibe, and the romance. And I knew I’d be happy for a while. But time slipped by so fast, ten years later we had to ask, can we make the fun last a little while? So blending beer we had to do, Rusty barrels from many places, left alone for many ages. And now we offer this to you, ten years on a tasty brew and we hold our glasses high today, we honor the Pine Box boys and roast to the 10 more years of good times and great beer. But, be careful, The Nail pounds your palate, challenges your perception of all that you’ve known of beer and leaves you wanting…another sip. “A fine beer may be judged by one sip, but it’s better to be thoroughly sure.” – VWP.
