Episode #157 - Aviator Brewing Co. - DevilsTramping Ground Tripel

Today we are drinking the Aviator Brewing Company's Devil's Tramping Ground Tripel! Aviator was a previous winner with this Tripel at the NC State Fair beer competition, winning a gold medal for the Devil's Tramping Ground. Aviator is located at 209 Technology Park Lane in Fuquay Varina, just south of Raleigh. Aviator started in Nov 2008 in an airplane hangar initially brewing in two used 300 gallon dairy tanks but have come a long way since then. Now they also operate the Aviator Tap House in the old Varina train depot and the Aviator SmokeHouse restaurant on Broad street. Of the Devil's Tramping Ground Tripel, Aviator says this hearty Tripel Belgian ale will grow hair in places you don't want. They describe the Tripel as golden colored ale that has a fruity spicy flavor that finishes a bit sweet and is light tasting from the addition of candy sugar. We add just the right amount of hops to balance out the sweetness.

Carolina Brewing Company, 20th Anniversary

Carolina Brewing Company in Holly Springs was the great idea of two brothers, John and Greg Shuck, and a friend, Joe Zonin. In this new NCBeerBuzz episode, we talk to Joe on the occasion of CBC’s 20th anniversary and catch up on a little of the history of CBC and a lot of the current plans for expansion and updating of the brand, facility, and product availability. For the first time ever, they canned up a bunch of their famous Pale Ale – sporting the new logo! CBC is growing with the opening of the Greensboro/Winston Salem market and new partner Caffey Distributing. And, they made a West Coast Style IPA and it has gone crazy so look for it in bars, restaurants, and bottle shops on draft.
