Anno XI releases will be available on-draft and to-go at all Burial Taprooms beginning Wednesday, 6/12. These offerings will also be available to enjoy throughout the festival.
For Extraordinary Temptation
Mezcal and Bourbon Barrel-Aged Imperial Stout with Cocoa Nibs, Sea Salt, and Mezcal Barrel-Aged Mexican Vanilla Bean
For every moment occurs whether you experience it or not. The clocks ticks without your permission. To embrace the myriad impulses. To believe in the occurrence of great spectacles. That is to be alive. A fragment of time that will pass before us in this AnnoXI. The product of many hours of sampling strong ales from our wood cellar, this excitedly curious pairing of Mezcal barrel fruit and smoke paired some incredibly well with our dark fruit and caramel Woodford Reserve barrel-aged stout that we married the two together with French Broad cocoa nibs, Mezcal barrel-aged Mexican vanilla bean and a dash of sea salt. An incredibly diverse range of Mexican spiced hot cocoa, sweet citrus chocolate cake, Bourbon vanilla frappuccino and dark chocolate-dipped black cherries.

For Foolish Thinking
11th Passing Imperial Stout with Toasted Macadamia, Pistachio, Hazelnut, Oats, Burial Coffee, Methodical Coffee, Medjool Dates, Orange Zest, Smoked Sea Salt, and Cognac Barrel-Aged Ghanan and Mexican Vanilla Beans
For selfish purposes. The sanctity of thinking for none. The urgency of everything. The uselessness of caring too much. For capturing tiny bouts of laughter. And being with them infinitely. A blend of 3 Imperial Stout bases, aged with 11 different things of beauty. House roasted Macadamia, Pistachio and Hazelnut, toasted oats, Burial Daytime Coffee Blend, Methodical Coffee Blend, aged Medjool dates, fresh orange zest, smoked sea salt and a blend of Ghanan and Mexican vanilla beans aged in a Cognac barrel. A delicate thunder of festivity falls under this veil of flavorful Holiday rum cake, a box of assorted chocolate truffles, and salted caramel over vanilla bean soft serve with crushed nuts.

For Adventures Together and Apart
A Blend of Whiskey Barrel-Aged And Oak Barrel-Aged Sour Ale With Strawberries
For finding breath. Somewhere to walk clear of the thorns. For gliding across the tops of steady waves. A story of wild ale we have been dreaming of telling for over a decade. 2000# of carbonic-fermented strawberries sit atop golden sour ales aged in fresh whiskey barrels and neutral oak from former wine casks. Aged together, the blend of terroir of our house flora and early-picked strawberry yields bright a bevy of delicious delicacies.
5.5% ABV
For Unbecoming
Triple India Pale Ale
For the lost art of anticipatory joy. Those who adore the unraveling. The mystic who hears no sound. The breeze who dances atop the drift. Someone who knows no encouragement. A composition for AnnoXI. Made with Galaxy, Nectaron, Eclipse, and Idaho Gem.
10% ABV
For Good Company
Double India Pale Ale
For the contrarian by means of sickness. That which is obsessively under-obsessed. The manifester who blooms laughter in bouquets of broken glass. The underappreciated artistry of pure association by choice. A composition for Anno XI. Made with Citra, Motueka, and Amarillo Cryo.
8% ABV
For Something Underneath
West-Coast Style India Pale Ale (Collaboration with clipping.)
For the means to shake the tempo. Something now that the weight is off. Anything for body and blood. A collaborative work for AnnoXI with our friends at clipping. Made pure of barley. Double dry-hopped with hand-selected Mosaic, Eldorado, Blanc, Simcoe and Mosaic Cryo.
7% ABV
For Self
Foudre-Aged Pilsner
For no audience. Something sensible even if conceivably mundane. One satisfaction for the yearn. If only to fortify the purity of the intention. A modest Pilsner base, fermented low and slow, and whirlpool hopped with Saaz and Hersbrucker. Carbonated naturally through the beauty of pressure, in our American Oak Foudre.
