Goodbye and Good Luck Kelsey. Hello and Welcome Liz!

Fellow Turtle Anarchists,

It's Kelsey here, your beloved spokesTurtle and Turtle rep. I'm writing to announce the end of my Turtle career, and the beginning of a new spokesTurtle. I am resigning from my position as senior account executive/marketing/sales lady for personal reasons. Turtle Anarchy has treated me well, but my time here is done. I am happy to announce your new spokesTurtle, Liz Chastain! (She's on the left.)

You've probably seen her around at beer festivals and events... She's the bomb. She'll be taking over all the blogging and social media, so the words you read will be hers from here on out.

I will miss you all so much, and I'll definitely be around. Don't hesitate to cheers me when you see me out!

Cheers and forever love,
Kelsey

June Bloom!

Ladies and gents, it's been a while since we've spoken. Here's why:

In case you haven't heard, we're moving our production to West Nashville at the end of the summer. We love Franklin, but there isn't any retail space for us to expand with larger equipment. Our new operation will be off of 60th and California Ave, just north of Charlotte Ave in a neighborhood called "The Nations." It will be strictly for production–we're still keeping our taproom in Franklin. We'll also still be doing small batch brews and sours at our Franklin location, too.

So this is what's up in June:
Tuesday June 17: Pint Night at The Tomato Head, 6 pm @ Kingston Pike, Knoxville. Discounted pints of Turtle, even on our specialty beer More Than Meets the Rye, a double dry-hopped rye IPA. Proceeds will benefit Ijams Nature Center. Come out drink, good beer, and support nature!
Saturday June 21: Knoxville Brewfest, 4-8 pm @ Gay St & Depot Ave, Knoxville. We'll have Portly Stout, Infidelis Helles, and More Than Meets the Rye. Proceeds benefit CureDuchenne.
Sunday June 22: Farm Fest: An Open House at Noble Springs Dairy, 3-6 pm, Franklin. You've seen their delicious goat cheese at your local market. Come get a feel for what they do on their farm, and sample some Turtle.
Tuesday June 24: Turtle Anarchy Beer Dinner at PM Restaurant, 7 pm @ Belmont Blvd, Nashville. Your favorite Asian-inspired restaurant in Nashville is creating a three-course dinner to pair with three Turtle Anarchy brews, one being PB&S, our peanut butter stout. We DO NOT DISTRIBUTE PB&S at all, so if you haven't tried it, don't miss your chance! PM will even use some grains that we use in our beer in the meal. It's gonna be unique and delicious.
Friday June 27: Growler Promo at Riverside Beverage, 4-6 pm @ Riverside Beverage, Chattanooga. Get some sweet deals on Turtle Anarchy growlers! Hang out with us! Take home some free stuff!
Friday June 27: Tap Takeover at Universal Joint @ 6 pm, Universal Joint, Chattanooga. Come party with us! We're drinking discounted Turtle pints. You can take your pint glass home!
Saturday June 28: Nashville Predators Craft Beer Festival, 1-6 pm @ Bridgestone Arena, Nashville. We're gonna bring What the Fudge!?, More Than Meets the Rye, and Infidelis Helles. You'll have a chance to vote for your favorite beer... you already know! :)

Don't forget to follow us on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook! Cheers, y'all.

New Brewmaster / Our First Sour Beer

The Times They Are a-Changin' 

Ladies and gentlemen, we have some big news...

We have a new brewmaster! Dan Dutcher has taken over the brewmaster position here at Turtle Anarchy. He has been brewing with us as an intern/assistant brewer since January 2013, and this week we passed the reigns to him. Congrats, Dan! 

Dan making a Turtle Anarchy Reserve small batch stout.

For all you sour heads out there, last May, we filled a Californication white wine barrel with How Now Brown Cow, our seasonal American brown ale. Welp, it's just been sittin' in the barrel getting sour and delicious. Tonight, we put that bad baby on tap! Introducing our very first sour... HOW NOW MAD COW!

It's finally on tap!!!

Also, we'll be pouring some brews at Main Street Brew Fest this Saturday here in Franklin. Who's coming? We'll be pouring Infidelis Helles, Another Way to Rye, and Portly Stout. We'll also have a firkin of Another Way to Firk set up–a dry hopped rye IPA fresh out of the firkin.

Knoxville, save the date for next Thursday March 20, we're coming for ya! We're taking over the taps at Vic's Beer Store & Cigar Shoppe with Infidelis Helles, Portly Stout, How Now Brown Cow, and a special batch of Down With the Coconut, our stout made with freshly toasted coconut just for you!

For the spring equinox on Friday March 21, we'll be having a firkin party at Hops & Crafts in Nashville featuring a cask of IPA. You'll have to come out for this one... The whole cask must be drunk that night!

Remember to follow us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram for instant Turtle updates. 

Rock and roll.

Almost March--An Update!

Hello beer drinkers and Turtle lovers!

Hope your Valentine's Day was full of love and beer and love for beer. We've been busy brewing and making some changes.

Goodbye Aurumglass
Ladies and gentlemen, we are waving goodbye to our flagship golden ale, Aurumglass. We know you love her, we love her too. We'll probably reintroduce her at a later time under a different name. We'll definitely keep you updated.

Hello Ms. Helles
We're replacing Aurumglass with Infidelis Helles, our light, grainy/bready helles-style ale. If you see Aurumglass on tap anywhere, drink it while you can because we're down to the last few kegs of it.
Starting tonight, we're offering pints of Aurumglass at $3 and growlers at $8 at our taproom to see her off with a bang.

We're also booking some sweet events for the upcoming months.

Here's our schedule for March:
March 5 (Wednesday): Beer dinner at {Pub}licity, featuring a cask of What the Fudge?, Nashville.
March 15 (Saturday): Pouring at Main Street Brew Fest featuring Portly Stout, Another Way to Rye, Infidelis Helles. Get your tix by clicking here. Franklin.
March 20 (Thursday): Tap takeover at Vic's Total Beverage featuring Down With the Coconut, Portly Stout, Infidelis Helles, and our seasonal (most likely How Now Brown Cow). Knoxville.
March 21 (Friday): Spring Equinox Cask Party, Hops & Crafts, featuring a cask of small batch IPA. Nashville.

Remember to follow us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Vine to get instant updates, details, and secrets.

Prost!

January Brews, Taproom Hours, & Beerfests

Greetings beer lovers! Turtle here, comin' at you with some updates.

In case you missed it, we recently finished a keg of K.R.Vass One, a smoky, sour kvass with no hops at all, and fully fermented by lactobacillus (4.6% ABV).

We also created a new brew, Smokeless Mirrors, our stout with chocolate, cinnamon, and chipotle. Special and rich. Yum!

Be on the lookout for a new small batch IPA in the next couple weeks. We're double-dry-hopping an IPA, possibly even triple-dry-hopping it. It's fermenting now!

Just a heads up, we'll be closed for a private event until 5pm this Thursday, Jan. 16. We'll be open for business from 5-10p on Thursday, 4-10p on Friday, and 2-10p Saturday. We still have plenty of room for tours this Saturday at 4:30, 5:30, 6:30, and 7:30. Just email us at turtleanarchybrewingco@gmail.com with the number of people in your party and we'll get the ball rollin' for ya!

Also, look out Columbia! We're coming back to participate in the Winterfest Beer Blast (ticket info here) on Friday, Jan. 24 from 7-10p at the Westbury House on the square. Come out–ticket sales will benefit Columbia CARES, an organization that specializes in AIDS/HIV prevention, testing, and social services.

Book Signing: Nashville Brewing + New Brew Release

Want to know about the history of brewing in Nashville?

Perfect. Cause we know an awesome guy in Brentwood named Scott R. Mertie who started collecting Nashville beer memorabilia when he was in the 1st grade. He collected so much that his collection turned obsession, and he gathered and learned so much that he wrote a book. 

The book is called Nashville Brewing. Through this book, self-published in 2006, Mertie is helping establish the history of brewing in Nashville. Thanks, man.

Mertie wants to share his knowledge so much that he's giving a free informational seminar, book signing, and Q&A at the Turtle Anarchy taproom on December 6 from 7-9p. No tickets necessary. Just show up, enjoy some Turtle, and learn about the roots of this beautiful beer industry in Music City.

He'll also have his book for sale at the event, so bring cash/your checkbook to buy some as Christmas gifts.

NEW BREW ALERT:
Today (Thursday), we release a smoked porter called 1864. We're calling it 1864 to commemorate the Battle of Franklin, which happened November 30, 1864. We're donating $5 from each keg purchased to Battle of Franklin Trust, a local charity dedicated to maintaining and restoring the properties, artifacts, and documents related to the Battle of Franklin in order to preserve its history. Learn more here.

We'll also have None More Black (stout with coffee), Smoke & Mirrors (stout with cinnamon and chipotle), and Blizzard Beast (stout with wintergreen and elderberry) on tap.

Saturday 11/23 from noon-4pm, we're doing a beer tasting in Murfreesboro called Brews in the Barn, located at Sinking Creek Farm. We'll be pouring Aurumglass, Another Way To Rye, and Smoke & Mirrors. Get your $20 tickets at Broad Street Tobacco in Murfreesboro.

Just a reminder, we'll be open Wednesday 11/27 (4-10p), CLOSED THANKSGIVING DAY, open Friday 11/29 (4-10p), and open Saturday 11/30 (2-10p). Bring your growlers and treat your family to some Turtle!

Cheers!

Turtle Anarchy Updates: Brew Business

Before you start reading, these are some brews going on tap:
TONIGHT: Blizzard Beast, our Portly Stout with wintergreen and elderberry.
TOMORROW: None More Black, stout steeped with coffee beans. WAKE YO ASS UP.
SOON: 1864, a smoked porter to commemorate the Battle of Franklin, November 1864.
SOON: A smoked lager, for which we do not yet have a name.

Firstly, a huge thank you to all our patrons, old and new. We've been doing lots of running around recently doing promotional events like tap takeovers, tastings, and pint nights across the state, and it's been a lot of fun. We've been getting lots of positive feedback and it means so much to us. We're thrilled that you're thrilled, so thanks.

Secondly, we made a new addition to our brew brains! We hired a full-time brewer's assistant. His name is Dan Dutcher and he's a badass. He's bringing some great new ideas to the table (or to the tap, let's say), like using ingredients like elderberry, wintergreen, and cherry. If you had Jacked O'Lantern, our dark chocolate pumpkin stout, that was Dan's idea. Like I said, he's a badass. If you see him around, say what's up. He's the dude on the left with the tattoos (brewmaster Mike Kraft is pictured on the right):

Thirdly, we're making some changes coming up, we just wanted you to know. Soon, we're going to totally redesign our website, including a beer locator so you can find which of your favorite watering holes have Turtle. We'll also be able to make daily updates on what beers are pouring at the taproom. Thanks for being with us during this growing process; we're making lots of changes and we appreciate your continuing support.

Fourthly, we don't know if you've noticed, but we have new tap handles! Some of our accounts already have them. They look like this:

Lastly, our friends at 104-5 The Zone have been playing Turtle Anarchy promos on their station. If you listen to Midday 180, you've already heard some. They'll be playing Turtle promos for the next couple weeks or so. Don't be a party pooper, turn on your radio! 

We have so much more to tell you, but this blog post is already long enough. We'll update you next week, so check back. cough BOOK SIGNING WITH LOCAL AUTHOR cough. ;) 

DON'T FORGET, jazz trio Carousel Music is playing a free show at the taproom tomorrow, 6-8p. All ages. 

Peace, love, and Portly Stout,

Kelsey

New Brews for this Halloweekend

You've been doing such a great job. Seriously. Thank you. All that beer you've been drinking at our taproom has only made us.... MAKE MORE BEER. 

That being said, this is what's going on tap this lovely Halloweekend:

Starting Thursday:
Infidelis Helles: IT'S BACK. It's an ale based on the German-style "helles" beer. Traditionally, it's a lager, but since we brewed it like an ale, we call it "infidelis". It has a nice grainy, bread-like flavor. It is lightly hopped to add some bitterness to the finish. (ABV: 4.5%)

Starting Friday:
Jacked O' Lantern (NEW!): Portly Stout spiced with Olive & Sinclair cacao nibs and pumpkin pie spices. That's right, A CHOCOLATE PUMPKIN STOUT. One more time. A CHOCOLATE. PUMPKIN. STOUT. 

Cold Hard Witch (NEW!): a Red lager. Same recipe as Scarlet Harlot, our American red ale, except this one's fermented with lager yeast.

HAPPY HALLOWEEKEND
