Unfortunately, I didn't get these guys. I semi-recently partnered Two Thumbs Brewing Company with a little known Wyoming brewer. The result, TTB-Wyoming, is centered (quite literally) where the deer and the antelope play...in Casper, WY. Sorry to take so long for the introduction. Here's the initial post by the head brewer, Chris Moan.
"This offshoot of Two Thumbs Brewing Company was started in the summer of 2008. It began with a Mac and Jack’s African Amber clone. Due to operator error/inexperience, the final product tasted nothing like its namesake, but was still delicious. Next a honey brown ale was brewed. We used ingredients from the Northern Brewer recipe, plus honey bought in Lusk, Wyoming (a city in Niobrara County, the county with the lowest density of people in the least populated state). The final product was unpalatable which resulted in a tearful parting down the drain to 50+ bottles of alcohol. I theorize that the honey I bought was unpasteurized, which led to an infection in the beer. Having honed my beer making skills, I am currently brewing a cherry vanilla stout, using the cherry stout kit from Northern Brewer. I added vanilla beans that “were the next best thing to gold” (which may explain why I paid as if I were buying gold) when I moved the stout into its secondary over the weekend. It will remain in the secondary for a week, week and a half. After bottling, a finished product should be ready after about three weeks or about the end of February."
Help me welcome the new brewing team to Two Thumbs Brewing Company!
