๐Ÿ™โค๏ธ๐Ÿ™โค๏ธ Thank you Vinepair for naming Jester King one of โ€œThe 30 Best Breweries in the Country Right Now, According to Beer Pros (2024)โ€!

Hereโ€™s some very kind words below from Ruvani de Silva, Michael Jackson Beer Writer of the Year 2024. Congrats as well to our friends at Green Bench and Other Half!

โ€œAs a beer writer, Iโ€™m often asked to name my best and favorite beers and breweries. I find this tricky because Iโ€™m a great believer in diversity of style and the power of the moment โ€” the magical beer-drinking experiences where all is exactly as it should be, the snapshots of perfection all beer lovers chase. Jester King is a place, and a brewery, that knows all about feeding those moments. My Sundays are often spent relaxing on their expansive farm in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, enjoying live country music and sipping happily on its latest creative endeavor whose quality never disappoints, while occasionally petting a baby goat or two. Heaven. But it was on a drizzly evening in southwest London that their ability to capture perfection really hit. Cracking open a 2017 Spon 1 Three Year Blend at our local bottle share and inhaling the vivid, specific aroma of Hill Country grasses and wildflowers and tasting our delicately flinty terroir mingling with Jester Kingโ€™s signature funk immediately transported me home, cinching how Jester King has become a worldwide sensation.โ€ โ€”Ruvani de Silva, Michael Jackson Beer Writer of the Year 2024, Austin, Texas

๐ŸŽฒ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŽฒ๐Ÿ–ค๐ŸŽฒ PHYLACTORY PHACTORY RETURNS!

Hazy Double IPA brewed with Freestyleโ€™s 2024 Mega Terps blend featuring Phantasm. Dry hopped twice with our 2024 hand-selected Citra and Simcoe T90, as well as Nectaron Cryo. Finally, we added over a liter of Freestyleโ€™s Motueka SubZero Hop Kiefยฎ (quickly becoming a house favorite) to our brite beer tank right before canning for extra tropical intensity. We get vibrant, sweet-smelling flavors and aromas of passion fruit, nectarine, and mango.

This batch of Phylactory Phactory is our first IPA dry hopped with our own hand-selected hops from our 2024 trip to Yakima Valley for hop harvest.

Available at Jester King now (open 7 days a week). Self-distributed to Austin, and select locations in San Antonio, Houston, and DFW.

๐Ÿ“– Historical footnote โ€” when we started in 2010, telling people where to find our beer was illegal. Jester King, along with Authentic Beverages, and Zax Restaurant & Bar successfully challenged this prohibition on freedom of speech grounds and won in federal court! Since 2012, all Texas breweries can tell the public where to find their beer.

Our newest IPA release is Jester King Nelson Bliss in collaboration with our close friends at New Image Brewing in Colorado. Nelson Bliss is a Hazy IPA featuring the Nelson Bliss hop blend from Freestyle Hops!

Nelson Bliss is a blend of early and late harvest 2024 Nelson Sauvin. According to Freestyle, the blend โ€œ...has the goal of capturing as much of the tropical intensity of Nelson Sauvin as possible without losing the brighter citrus and wine-y notes from earlier harvested Nelson.โ€

We ๐’๐’๐’—๐’† the character of the blend and made it the focal point of our whirlpool and dry hop additions. We complemented the bliss with more Nelson Sauvin โ€” Cryo in the dry hop and SubZero Hop Kief in the brite beer tank right before packaging. We get strawberry HI-CHEW, papaya, and Sauv Blanc.

Now self-distributing around Austin and parts of Houston, San Antonio, and DFW! Available at Jester King, open 7 days a week.

Special thank you to Brandon Capps of New Image Brewing, who came to Austin to brew Nelson Bliss with us. Brandon is one of the brightest minds weโ€™ve encountered in the brewing world, and getting to brew and talk brewing with him is a special treat for us.

โœจ 2024 FUNK N' SOUR FEST PAIRINGS ANNOUNCED! โœจhttps://jesterkingbrewery.com/main-blog/2024-funk-n-sour-fest-pairings-announced

We just returned from our first hop selection! We were hosted by our friends at Yakima Chief Hops in Washington to select the Citra, Mosaic, Simcoe, and El Dorado weโ€™ll use in our beer over the next year. It was an eye-opening experience seeing how different lots of Citra, for instance, grown at different farms had profound differences in aroma. We feel we found lots that will bring our beers to a higher level. Why did we select hops? Well, as the beer market has gone through heavy adaptations since the pandemic, we find ourselves making more IPA and other hoppy styles than ever before. If weโ€™re still seeking to make some of the best examples of beer styles that we can, which we are, we feel itโ€™s crucial to take this next step forward. What was also cool was the close connection with terroir we experienced smelling fresh hops at their source. Despite differences in how weโ€™ve expressed terroir in the past, the philosophical kinship was palpable. Weโ€™re grateful to the folks at YCH and Crosby Farms for their fantastic hospitality and for having participated in such a cool experience. @yakimachief @crosbyhops
