Belt’s Beer Garden: Dragoon Tales

Related Topics: Arizona, dragoon, Russian Empire

Dragoon Brewing has been a staple of Tucson, Arizona for a decade now. They opened up in the city’s north side, right off of I-10, in 2012 and will be celebrating their tenth anniversary with a big party at the end of next month, on Saturday, April 30th.

While visiting the taproom last month I was able to snag a single can of one of their special releases, Barrel-Aged The Nueve.

The Nueve is a Russian Imperial Stout that was released to celebrate their eighth anniversary (interesting…). To get their Barrel-Aged The Nueve they took that base beer and then aged it in Four Roses Bourbon Barrels and added a splash of their The Diez to mellow it out.
