For our next edition of A Beer, A Bite & A Brewery, we are excited to be pairing up with our good friends at 3 Sheeps Brewing out of Sheboygan, WI. We have been carrying their beers from the first time they started distributing and have become great partners and good friends. What makes them stand out is the consistent quality of their beers and how they take a style and put their own stamp on it with a little twist, some science or invention.
3 Sheeps Co-Owner James Owen and Wisconsin rep Andy Beaulieu will be on hand with us as we explore four of their beers, including The Wolf – Layered Coconut!

Here’s the beer line up:
Here’s the beer line up:
Fresh Coast – Pale Ale – 4.8% abv
Fresh Coast is an East Coast-style pale ale brewed for the Midwest. Like most beers of the style, it pours cloudy…and that’s on purpose. The haze lets hop oils linger on the palate, enhancing their naturally citrusy and tropical fruit notes. To get that haze, we cultivate a special Vermont yeast strain that’s only used for Fresh Coast. It’s a pain to manage for just one beer, but it’s worth it. It’s the kind of beer you can drink all day, with your feet dangling in the lake. Because we live on the “Fresh Coast” and that’s worth celebrating, right?

Cashmere Hammer – Nitro Stout – 6.5% abv
Cashmere Hammer drinks like the best darn milkshake you’ve ever had. It’s rich, creamy, packed with chocolatey goodness and an earthy spice that can only come from rye malt. And, as if that isn’t rare enough, this beer is nitrogenated, something shockingly few breweries in the country can do in a bottle. We spent 18 months in research and development building our double-secret bottling line to get that smooth, velvety mouthfeel that only nitrogen can impart.

Oktoberfest – Marzenbier – 5.5% abv
We have a deep appreciation for the traditional German beers that laid the groundwork for what we brew and drink today. Our Oktoberfest is an ode to that tradition. It’s a light-bodied and easy-drinking lager with pleasant caramel notes, making it the perfect beer to ring in the changing of seasons. We spent years laboring over this beer, endlessly tweaking recipes to find just the right malts and just the right yeast strain. We weren’t happy until it was perfect. Wisconsin is proud of its Oktoberfests, and we’re proud of this one. Prost!

The Wolf – Layered Coconut – Bourbon-barrel Aged Stout – 12.3% abv
We started with The Wolf, which by itself has all those wonderful flavors you expect from a Bourbon Barrel Aged Imperial Stout – warm bourbon, hints of vanilla and toasted marshmallow, plus the deep roastiness of an imperial stout. Then, we added cocoa nibs, for that delicious dark chocolate flavor and touch of dryness. Next, coconut gets added to the mix, bringing out more of those delicious barrel characteristics, a bit of sweetness to round out the cocoa nibs and a sense of decadence. Finally, vanilla is incorporated to bring everything together. It enhances the vanilla flavors from the barrels, makes the sweetness of the coconut more pronounced, and acts as the perfect counterpoint to the cocoa nibs.

This beer took months upon months to develop – not only as it aged in the barrels, but getting the ratios of flavors just right through exhaustive tastings (ok, they weren’t that bad) and blending. It’s one of the finest Bourbon Barrel Aged Stouts on the market, and we’re happy to share it with you.
