Parrot In A Palm Tree<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Hard at work on the December 2010 issue of West Coaster, <\/em>we took some time out to enjoy a bomber of the new special release from Karl Strauss: Parrot In A Palm Tree Holiday Baltic Porter.<\/a><\/p>\n

We love the commercial description: “In San Diego, we\u2019re not known for our partridges or pears but we can all relate to those noisy parrots and their relentless ‘caroling.’ Parrot In A Palm Tree is a robust Baltic Porter brewed especially for the Holidays. Aged two months in San Pasqual Tawny Port barrels, the resulting brew isn\u2019t for the birds.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This beer is a limited release, so you’d be wise to grab yourself one (or two, or more) for the holidays – it’s worth it.\u00a0 Parrot In A Palm Tree flies with a symphony of flavors,\u00a0 moving from chocolate to dark, port-like fruit and oak undertones.\u00a0 At 8.5%ABV, the nearly pitch-black brew subtly gives you that nice warming sensation on these unseasonably cold winter nights.<\/p>\n

Parrot In A Palm Tree is the first of, you guessed it, twelve beers in the San Diegan version of “12 Days of Christmas.”\u00a0 We’re looking forward to number 2, 3, and beyond.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
