Batch 2000

We finally reached the 2,000th batch at Kedzie, and the resulting beer is a big, roasty Imperial Stout with lactose and rye malt for body. We took characteristics we like from Deth’s Tar and Ryeway to create this beer. The recipe was a collaborative effort from the brewers that included European and U.S. caramel malts, coffee malt, and debittered roasted malt to accentuate the toasted marshmallow and roasted flavors without acrid or burnt notes. 20% Canadian Rye Malt helps give it a velvety texture.
