Puzzling Platypus


Remember when you were a kid and would mix all the flavors at the soda fountain? SUICIDE was what we called it, and in homage to those glorious times of yesteryear we bring to you Goat Rodeo Brewing's Suicide Series. This is unique beer with only one in existence. Puzzling Platypus is its name, and it is severely confused. A combination of the bitter Pitbull Pale Ale and the rich chocolatey coffee-infused Mocha Moo Milk Stout. Guess this is sorta like an effed up black-n-tan. No wonder it's so befuddled. Release Date- mid February.

Essence of Carrot Cake



Goat Rodeo Brewing is not afraid to dabble in the realm of the unknown when it comes to beer. With that in mind, I took my mother's carrot cake recipe and adapted it to the brewing process and the rest is history. A nut brown ale as the base with cascade hops, carrots, raisins, toasted coconut and walnuts, vanilla extract, a stick of cinnamon, and lactose (to serve as the "icing"). Release date- mid March. Alcohol %- 7.

Chrysomallo Katsika



Chrysomallo Katsika is Greek for Golden Goat. Why go Greek? Why not? Golden Goat is a beer inspired by the land of the Golden Fleece. It is an American blonde ale, with a Hellenic touch of grapes, walnuts, and laurel leaves (the source of bay spices). The sweet goodness of the Greeks is moderately bittered by a dash of Willamette hops. This premier beer of Goat Rodeo's southern affiliate will have an ABV of 6-7% and should be ready for consumption in March - the month that is in like a Lion, and out like a Goat.

Chocolate Coffee Milk Stout


Like many Americans I start my day with a cup of coffee. Like many Americans I have a sweet tooth for chocolate. Like many Americans I drink milk...gotta keep those bones strong. And like many Americans I enjoy beer. Just so happens this American decided to put all of that in the same vat. Mocha Moo Milk Stout will be ready in the middle of February for those Americans that like all of the above just like me. Prosit!

Pitbull Pale Ale


Goat Rodeo Brewing's first beer is going to be a pale ale, much like the inaugural brew of our predecessor MNG Brewing. Pitbull Pale Ale is a mixture of both hopped and unhopped pale malt extract with both wet and dry hopped amarillo hops and cascade hops (dry). It will have a 5.4% ABV and be unleashed in the first week of February. Cheers!

IPA


In the beer world, IPA means India Pale Ale and is my favorite style. MNG's latest offering is just that and goes by the name of Instigator Perpetrator Agitator. It's an IPA brewed with nugget and cascade hops. Alcohol content- 4.7%. Release date- mid January.
