Each vintage of the Velvet Hammer has a slightly different flavor composition as our oak barrels age and mature. But it is always vinous and tart with dark fruits and a moderate acidity with subtle earthy and barnyard undertones.
Velvet Hammer is part of our sour series and is available only at Corner Brewery. It is a Belgian Dubbel-style base beer aged in a gueuze-inoculated oak cask for a year and then bottle conditioned. A new vintage is released the first Saturday in June on Velvet Hammer Day.
