BENTHIC TEN Hot Poke 11/15

Ten years of Benthic calls for a little fire. We’re keeping the anniversary celebrations going on Sunday, November 15th, with our annual Benthic Hot Poke at Half Acre.

For the uninitiated, hot poking is an old tradition that involves plunging a red-hot metal poker directly into a glass of beer. The intense heat caramelizes the beer’s residual sugars, creating a warm, creamy foam and bringing out rich, toasted flavors. It’s a particularly good match for the deep chocolate and roasted coconut character of our beloved barrel-aged imperial stout.

Join us at Balmoral for an afternoon around the fire as we give Benthic the hot poke treatment and celebrate a decade of this special beer.
