The Liquid: It tastes like a funked-out yet drinkable wild cherry pie filling that packs a well-hidden 7% ABV.

Hype: Casey is the #8 Rated Brewery in the World on Untappd; Good Beer Hunting calls them “one of the most compelling young beer makers in the U.S.”

Bottom Line: There are less than 480 bottles available at Tavour, so you’d better grab some quick!

When Draft Mag named Casey Brewing and Blending the Best New Brewery in the World back in 2016, nobody was surprised. 

Except, maybe, Troy Casey, the brewery’s founder.

“We’re not trying to be the next big thing,” he said at the time. “We just want to make beer that allows us to live in a gorgeous part of Colorado.” 

Well, beer geeks lucky enough to try Casey brews will let you know that the brewery is making beer just as gorgeous as the region. Like today’s Funky Blender Cherry with Madagascar Vanilla Barrel Aged Sour — it will add some heavy clout to your list of rare beers you can say you’ve experienced.
