Hefe-Barcio

4.5% ABV – 12 IBU – Hefeweizen

 

A cloudy German classic Hefeweizen style beer. This brew is light and crushable with soft notes of banana, wheat, and clove undertones. Coming in at 4.5% ABV makes this the perfect day drinking beer while tooling around working on projects like building a catapult or perhaps a little bit of DIY work around the house. Made with Hallertau hops and Sugar Creek Malts.

The beer is dedicated to Phil Barcio & his father Bernard who was very well known for his helping start the National Catapult Champions.  Bernard was a teacher at Park School in the 1960’s. Along with his students helped launched the first Roman catapult building contest which over a few years of popularity it became the first National Catapult Contest which was held a Culver Military Academy in 1972. The challenge and competition received National Media attention and during war times he was contacted by the Pentagon to help them as an expert in catapults. We salute Bernard and his legacy with this tasty brew, let your taste buds fly through the sky like a bag of flour from a catapult.
