Crosby's Kitchen & CocktailBore Tide Belgian-style Wheat Wine

ALASKANA series: Eight beers will debut in 2014 but this series is designed as an ongoing experience to represent “life in Alaska.” Additional beers will be created in this series and our favorites will be re-produced. You can help us decide! “As in all areas of the world, Alaska has its own vernacular — a unique array of terms that describe life in the Great Land. Inspired by these quirky terms, Midnight Sun is presenting some favorites in the form of beer. So whether you live in Alaska or Outside, let your taste buds interpret our language via your glass. BORE TIDE: A “Bore Tide” is a rush of seawater that returns to a shallow and narrowing inlet after extreme minus low tides. Alaska’s famous bore tide occurs just outside Anchorage. Running 40-50 miles along Turnagain Arm, it climbs up to 6-10 feet tall and can reach speeds of 10-15 MPH. Our Bore Tide is one of the largest in the world. And like the massive wave pouring in to Turnagain Arm, Bore Tide Wheat Wine will knock you over, stand you up and remind you why we live in this incredible land. Flavors of High West Rye Whiskey and charred oak crash in to the crevices of a bay of thick sweet wheat. There is nothing small about this natural phenomenon. Get taken down by a glass of Bore Tide.
