Goose Island takes Gotham
• Mar 9th, 2010 • Category: Beer Releases
Last week, Goose Island Beer Company’s Matilda went west. Now the Chicago-based brewery is expanding into New York.
Goose Island Reserve Beers — Matilda, Sofie, Juliet, and Pere Jacques — are now available in Batman’s home town and beyond.
The brews work well with food, an intentional plan.
“Belgian-style beers are food-friendly to begin with; we used different techniques to enhance each of their profiles,” brewmaster Greg Hall said in a statement. “For instance, by aging Juliet in cabernet barrels and adding the blackberries, we achieved new layers of flavors.”
Go to New York. Eat, drink, and be merry.
I don’t know if you noticed, but the last two Batman movies were filmed in Chicago…….
I second that, Jim. Since when is it assumed that Gotham is New York…?
