Ten FIDY From Oskar Blues returns For Fall

Brevard, NC -- Oskar Blues Brewery's award-winning Imperial Stout, Ten FIDY, makes its return to shelves and watering holes just in time for cool autumn temps and offers an alternative to the conventional varietals. Ten FIDY (10.5% ABV) is massively flavorful brew that is unlike any seasonal you'll find this fall.
 
"Its warmth makes this seasonal beer an ideal fall brew with its hearty flavor and initial sweetness. It's like the hot chocolate of beers. It's definitely a slow sipper-at 10.5% ABV, you don't want to swig these bad boys, but thanks to its thick, velvety feel and punch-in-the-chops hops, you probably won't be able to anyway" - Paste Magazine, 2013
 
Ten FIDY is an immensely viscous stout loaded with inimitable flavors of chocolate-covered caramel and coffee underneath a smooth blanket of malt. This brew is constructed with colossal amounts of two-row malt, chocolate malt, roasted barley, flaked oats and hops. With 98 IBUs, you won't forget you're drinking a burly beer.
 
"The brewing process for Ten FIDY is as unique as the stout beer itself. We have to mash-in two batches just to get one kettle filled because we only take the most concentrated wort from each mash. It's a labor intensive process, but this is part of how we make Ten FIDY so unique, rich, and complex," says Oskar Blues NC Operations Manager, Noah Tuttle.
