Homebrewed Raleigh Beer Line Up and Ticket Giveaway
By looking at the pile of ingredients that home brewer Les Stewart brought into the museum last week, it’s hard to think that something so delicious comes from that pile of little of twiggy-looking ingredients, but it does. A small tasting session last Tuesday for some of the Homebrewed Raleigh beers proved that Saturday is going to be not only a great time, but a day full of some really delicious beers.
The brewers have made the final touches, and Saturday’s list of beer is as follows:
Adam Eckhardt- Rye Ale, Spiced Pumpkin Ale and American Brown Ale
Mike Frost and Bob Silk- Carolina Clay IPA, Tropical Porter
John Federal- “Speed of Drunk” Barleywine, Honey Basil Ale, Casked “Dear Watson” ESB
Keil Jansen- Scottish 90 schilling, Belgian Dubbel, and a Belgian Black Ale
Damian Maddalena- Old Hickory Hefeweizen, Yellow Poplar Pale Ale
Aaron Miller- Munich Helles, Vienna Lager and American IPA
Jason Salemme- Belgian Tripel, Scottish Ale, and ESB
Les Stewart- “Jitterbug” (Coffee Porter), “Puff’n Jack” (Smoked Pumpkin Ale), “Silver Lining” (Bourbon Barrel Aged Triple)
Mike Sulyi- American Pale Ale, Belgian Tripel, Belgian Styled IPA, Oktoberfest
Sean White- Rye IPA and an Abbey Dubbel
Mitch Woodard- Dark Side Munich Dunkle Lager, NC Harvest Ale (Sweet Potato & Pumpkin Spiced Ale), Denni’s Double D (American Double Rye IPA)
In addition to the home brewers, there will be 3 local North Carolina breweries on site including LoneRider Brewing Company and Mother Earth Brewing showcasing their craft beer and seasonal favorites. Busy Bee Café, Flying Saucer, and The Borough will be on hand to provide delicious food and help balance out one’s beer intake.
Help support the Raleigh City Museum and have a fun time doing it. 100% of the event proceeds go to the museum to help with exhibits, programs, and preserving Raleigh’s past for the future. Homebrewed Raleigh takes place October 23rd with one session from 1:00-4:00, and one session from 5:00-8:00. Tickets are $25/session for members of the Raleigh City Museum, and $30/session for non-members.
There are very few tickets left to the event, so move fast or you will miss it. You can call the Raleigh City Museum at (919)832-3775 to pay by credit card over the phone, or you can stop by the museum to pay by cash/check/credit card. Cash only ticket purchases are also available at The Busy Bee Cafe, Flying Saucer, and American Brewmaster during their respective hours of operation.
New Raleigh has two tickets to the event to give away. In the comment section below, name which of the beers mentioned above you would most like to try, and a winner will be randomly selected from the comments. Winner will be announced Thursday at noon.

In a relationship with a homebrewer, I do not claim to be a seasoned taster or vetern to the homebrew process. BUT, I do claim to be the ultimate lover of Fall which is why I would be MOST excited to taste NC Harvest Ale (Sweet Potato & Pumpkin Spiced Ale).
Pumpkin ales are truly hit or miss and seem to be coming out of the wood-works these days by different brewing companies, but I have never seen sweet potato in the mix! I am pumped to try this delicious combination of my favorite foods and an ode to my favorite season!

“Puff’n Jack” by Les Stewart: want to see how the smoke affects the sweet, rich flavor usually found in pumpkin ales. After that it would have to be Woodard’s “Denni’s Double D” double rye IPA because I’ve been really into rye lately.

Some of these have the potential to be outstanding, but also an equal potential of being disastrous. Glad the brewers aren’t all making straight IPAs. I’m interested in all. Not just bells and whistles. Rye sounds good.

I’d like to try all of John Federal’s beers. I’ve really enjoyed Fullsteam’s “Summer Basil Farmhouse Ale”, so I’m curious to see what Honey might do to enhance that flavor. I’m a huge ESB fan - so a cask version looks interesting. And ... what’s NOT to like about a nice Barleywine?

It’s the difference between Home baked bread and store bought bread…those of you who have gone are most likely trying to find your way back from a road grown over with flavor. Saying to your self how can I buy that store bought swill? Now you know why those folks across the pond enjoy a pint or two…lol

Hyzoot — that analogy isn’t close at all. You cannot simply generalize “store-bought” as “swill”. There are vasts amounts of craft beer you can by in stores that are far from “swill”. I understand you’re trying to give high praise to homebrewed beer — which is all well and good — but don’t assume that being brewed at home gives any advantage to beer brewed in a professional brewery. Your statement might have made sense 25 years ago, but we’ve had a huge American craft beer movement and a whole lot has changed. Cheers!
