Twain’s continues its tradition of bringing you Great Beer in 2013.

2013 harkens in a new era here at Twain’s Billiards & Tap. Chase Medlin takes over as Twain’s Head Brewer as we welcome Chicagoan Brad Davis to the family here at Twain’s. You can expect some of the beers we have been perfecting during the last year to stay in our rotation, but always be on the lookout for something new! We have already introduced a few that have really been crowd pleasers, like the River Sunset Amber or Criminal Sin IPA, so you should definitely come by to see whats on tap.

You can also look forward to some more collaboration ales. 2012 gave us awesome opportunities to work with some great people to make some delicious beer, and we don’t aim to stop, it is one way of doing our part to strengthen the craft beer community, and one we truly enjoy.

Come on down and say hello to the guys making all that great beer. Cheers.

Twain’s 2nd Annual Homebrew Challenge – Hops vs. Malts!

ethan — Mon, 17 Jun 2013 23:20:19 +0000

This year, the theme of our homebrew competition is Hops vs. Malts, thus all entries will be divided into those two categories: Malt driven beers and Hop driven beers. We still welcome specialty beer concepts such as spiced, peppered, fruit infused, herb infused, barrel-aged, etc., but all submissions will still have to be classified as Hops or Malts.

Guidelines:

-All entries must be original all-grain recipes.

-(3) 12 ounce bottles of each submission beer and a copy of the recipe must be turned into Twain’s by the deadline. Each bottle must be labeled with the brewer’s name, contact info, and beer name/style. There is no limit on how many entries each brewer can submit.

-Deadline: July 31st

-The winner of each category will have the chance to brew a batch of their beer with us on our brewhouse at Twain’s, and have it served on draft at Twain’s with personal recognition on our beer menu and website. All brewers must be agreeable to recipe adjustment for scaling and ingredient availablility. Winners will also have the chance to have a keg of the beer sent to their local growler store.

If you have any questions, feel free to email me at chase@twains.net.

Cheers to great beers,

Chase

What do you get when you combine friends who love coffee and beer? Delicious! That’s what. Deep dark brown with a beautiful tan head. A nose of deep roast from coffee and malts and hints of hops. Coffee is ever-present and bright, with a backbone of dark ale. This one may keep you up pondering life and the wonderful confluence of events. Big thanks to Jordan and Dale of Steady Hand Pour House, they brew some stellar coffee.
