Firestone Walker Stickee Monkee 2014

Stickiest Monkee wins! 

Since 2006 Firestone Walker's barrel aging project has turned out some of America's most sought after beer releases in their Anniversary Ale series. These ales are a blend of several unique components, beers of varying styles aged in spirits vessels. Over the years, our friends in Paso Robles have treated us to some of these component ales as draft only and, to our delight here at Healthy Spirits, limited bottle runs.

Stickee Monkee lives up to its name by spiking a full on Belgian-style dark strong ale with Mexican Turbinado brown sugar and aging in oaken spirits vessels to impart more flavor. A rich molasses sweetness gives way to toasted coconut, and an earthy leather finish. 

22oz bottle in a handsome display box will set you back $17.99 plus tax and CRV. Two (2) bottles per person per diem limit, please, and phone reservations for club members only.

"Lahm-BEEK"

And sometimes blend it to make Gueuze.

If you want to call to find out whether it's still in stock you're probably too late, but say hi anyways 'cause we have amazing spontaneous ales all the time!

New Arrival: Hair of the Dog!

HAIR OF THE DOG: Just in! This legendary small batch brewery from Portland, a pioneer of interesting and delicious beers that defy style guidelines, is back in San Francisco after a long drought. And we got some! We have limited quantities of Fred, Blue Dot, and the very rare Cherry Adam. At the risk of pigeonhole-ing these beers, I will attempt to describe them:

Fred: A hoppy, Belgian Golden Strong Ale with Rye. $6.99/ 12oz

Blue Dot: While this is their only beer to explicitly display a known beer style, Double IPA, I wouldn't lump this in with the rest of the hop bombs out here on the West Coast. In fact, I would liken more to a Belgian IPA. Unfiltered and a bit funky, with a nice, clean, grassy hop character. $9.99/ 22oz

Cherry Adam: Where to start.. at %13.5 abv, one might call this beer a Barleywine or Old Ale, and it wouldn't be wrong to do so. It is indeed strong, malty and has little-to-no carbonation. But it diverges from the aforementioned styles in couple ways: an American dose of Pacific Northwest hops and the addition of local cherries. The beer is aged for at least 15 months(!) in oak, making it exceptionally smooth. One of the most complex, layered and tasty beers you'll ever have. $17.99/ 12oz

LONG LIVE THE KING!

Since 2011 the team at Healthy Spirits has worked with our favorite distilleries to acquire exclusive bottlings of their spirits. When this happens we’re also able to get the emptied barrels these unique whiskies were aged in. We then hand these oaken vessels over to our favorite brewers to carefully age their offerings. The result has been a series of amazing bottled beers available only at our stores in very limited quantities.

The newest in this series of exclusive bottlings has just been released! Healthy Spirits and San Francisco’s Triple Voodoo Brewing announce KING LEOPOLD Barrel-Aged Belgian Stout. Black as a rickhouse floor at midnight, this stout features American and European dark malts with a portion of rolled oats to supply the roasty, nutty, and full-bodied granular structure without heaviness on the palate. Belgian yeast ate all the sugars supplied by these grains, leaving behind a dry, clean finish. Oak barrel aging provided extra fermentation and a fleeting hint of woody spice. Limited to a mere ten cases produced, this represents one of the smallest runs of our exclusive ale series offered to our beer-loving patrons, and at $17.99 per twenty-two ounce bottle we’re certain the supply will not last!


In addition to KING LEOPOLD Barrel-Aged Belgian Stout, some of our
previous exclusive bottlings are still available, but supplies are dwindling every day! These include:

Ale Industries SOMEONE TALKED! Imperial stout with coffee - Colorado Gold or Four Roses bourbon-barrel aged variants only: Buffalo Trace has SOLD OUT! $18.99/22oz.

FiftyFifty HEALTHY SPIRITS FIFTEENTH ANNIVERSARY BLEND - Truckee’s masters of barrel-aged imperial ales blended a barleywine with an imperial porter then aged it in our Four Roses bourbon barrel. The result, released in October of last year, is really hitting its stride after resting in glass. $25.99/22oz

Mill Valley Beerworks ESPIRITU OSCURO - also released in celebration of our store’s 15th anniversary, the “Dark Spirit” is a dark Belgian-style ale brewed with spices and smoked sea salt. It was aged in our hand-selected Four Roses Bourbon barrels. They also aged a batch of their fantastic FOUR BROTHERS Belgian-style golden ale in another Four Roses barrel. Both available for now: $13.99/16oz

Telegraph Brewing Company RHINOCEROS Rye-wine - aged in a dry Evan Williams barrel, this rich ale picked up some serious woody spice. $19.99/25.4oz

Moylan’s OLD BLARNEY Barleywine - aged in a re-wet Buffalo Trace barrel that was once filled with Ryan Sullivan’s Imperial Stout for our very first Healthy Spirits exclusive offering. $13.99

Toccalmatto/Prairie Okie Matilde
The gents at Lime Ventures put it best: "A drinkable tribute to the famed Trappist beer Orval, Okie Matilde is the product of a collaboration between the folks at Toccalmatto and Chase Healey of Oklahoma's own Prairie Artisan Ales."
