\"Playor<\/a>
Playor Hator Maibock, a collaboration from Division 23 Brewing Company and 32 North Brewing Company<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

From the Beer Writer: <\/strong>What\u2019s 23 plus 32? I\u2019ve always been horrible at math, so it shouldn\u2019t surprise you that my answer isn\u2019t 55. That\u2019s OK, because the solution to this equation isn\u2019t a number at all. The answer is maibock<\/em>, because in this case I\u2019m talking about the sum (or product, in this case) of Division 23 Brewing Company <\/strong><\/a>and 32 North Brewing Company<\/strong><\/a>. Both operations are based in Miramar and each of their head brewers recently put their heads together for a collaboration beer that will debut when Division 23 celebrates its one-year anniversary today starting at 3 p.m.<\/strong> Six-and-a-half percent alcohol-by-volume, it\u2019s light in body, bright with mineral-like expressions of lager yeast and easy to love. Making its name Playor Hator Maibock<\/strong> a tad ironic, but still pretty darn funny. For more on that handle, I\u2019ll defer to one of the individuals responsible for it\u2026<\/p>\n

From the Brewer: <\/strong>\u201cThis strong, pale lager was brewed to celebrate both the change of seasons and Division 23\u2019s one-year anniversary. It was our first collaboration brew with our friends and neighbors at 32 North Brewing Company. (32 North head brewery) Will Gallaspy<\/strong> and I both share a love for traditional German lagers, so a maibock was a natural choice. This beer is light and easy drinking, with a mellow bitterness and slight honey aroma. We chose to follow the German tradition of naming bocks with the -ator<\/em> suffix, and so the name Playor Hator was born. It will be available on tap at both of our tasting rooms for a limited time, starting with our two-day anniversary on June 10 and 11<\/strong>, where we\u2019ll be releasing our first barrel-aged beer\u2014a bourbon barrel-aged version of our Night Shift imperial stout\u2014as well as a new barley-wine and our Sour Superintendent Berliner weisse served with a quintet of special syrups such as chipotle, Sichuan-spice and lemongrass.\u201d\u2014Kevin Daugherty, Head Brewer, Division 23 Brewing Company<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
