Rogue Jazz Guy Ale

Author: Sigaro | Filed under: News

roguejazzguyaleAnyone who knows me outside of the internets knows that I’m a big fan of jazz music.  I grew up listening to Miles, Lee Morgan, Monk, Parker, Blakey, Clifford, etc etc etc.  I’m also a big fan of jazz festivals.  I’m happy to report that our friends over at Rogue Brewing Co have continued support for their local Portland Jazz Festival for a forth year with a limited edition Jazz Guy Ale.

Rogue Jazz Guy ale is made with 9 ingredients: Harrington and Klages, Cara Vienna, English 115 & 135 Crystal Malts; Cascade and Kent Golding Hops; Rogue’s proprietary Pacman ale yeast & free range coastal water. No chemicals, additives or preservatives. It is tawny in color with a coffee aroma, tight head and a delicate roasted malt accent.

Not going to make the Portland Jazz Festival? Don’t fret! When the musicians pack their bags and leave town, Jazz Guy ale will follow them to jazz venues and festivals across the country. Jazz Guy ale will be available in New Orleans, San Francisco, Boston, Minneapolis, New York City, Philadelphia, Kansas City, Seattle and Chicago.  Sadly, I don’t live in any of these cities and these breweries never seem to send us “samples” no matter how much free advertising we do for them.

Now I feel like having a beer and listening to jazz…
