As we return to the "friendly confines" of the Cincy Brewcast Studios, high atop Mt. Carmel for our first show of 2016, we look ahead to the possibilities and the promise of a new year in craft beer. We taste what is very likely 2016's first new beer release in Urban Artifact's "Abacus" Cocao-Raspberry Gose; one of the top releases of late 2015 in Mt. Carmel's "Ice Cream Stout" (tasting just like Neapolitan Ice Cream!) and Anchorage Brewing Co.'s (AK) Galaxy White IPA with Brett. We also discuss both our craft beer "resolutions", highlighting The Gnome's article at www.thegnarlygnome.com and also some predictions for Cincy Craft in 2016 from the Cincy Brewcast team.
