Fellow Innovators! We're delighted to share the delicious details regarding the fifth annual release of Fundamental Observation, our chart-topping Bourbon Barrel Aged Imperial Vanilla Stout!
This "liquid brownie batter" was aged in a combination of Buffalo Trace, Woodford Reserve, Four Roses, Heaven Hill, and Knob Creek bourbon barrels and finishes out at a mighty 13.55% ABV. Each barrel saw multiple additions of Madagascar vanilla beans from one of the best crops in recent memory, ultimately aging the finished batch of beer with hundreds of pounds over the course of a year.
Fundamental Observation was initially honored as 2015's Best New Beer on BeerAdvocate. It maintains two entries on Untappd's Top 50 rated beers for the 2016 and 2017 vintages, and just last year took Gold in the Festival of Wood & Barrel-Aged Beers's Specialty Strong/Porter Stout category before going on to win FOBAB 2018's Best In Show.
But wait, there's more!
Our July Stasis Project release will feature an additional bottle sale of the original Level II variant built upon Fundamental Observation's incredible vanilla-struck base. Number Crunch is an ode to the chocolate bar; a Bourbon Barrel Aged base of Fundamental Observation's vanilla stout with a finishing 300lb touch of Valrhona and Tanzania cacao nibs. This beer is a trust fall of over-indulgence, and it's the perfect chocolate counterpart to Fundamental Observation.
Make your travel plans to join us for an epic release weekend on July 20-21 for the opening of bottle/merch pickup and new, cannot-miss, draft-only FOB5 variants!

Please pay very careful attention to all of the listed details and stipulations. There will be no exceptions to the release structure outlined below -- your purchase signifies your thorough understanding of the following:
- Once you've selected your desired ticket quantity and clicked "Checkout," Eventbrite treats the registration page as a waiting room with a six-minute time limit, but it does not hold your tickets! Have your Government Issued ID (drivers license, passport, or military ID) and form of payment on hand and ready to go. Move through that screen as quickly as possible - the tickets are officially yours once the credit card payment has been processed.
- In the interest of ensuring our local patrons don't get shut out of online sales, we do not permit 'proxy' pick-ups.
- The name entered as the Ticket Buyer must match the name on the credit card used for purchase. Conflicting orders will be deleted. When retrieving your bottles you must present your valid ID and the information must match. You may be asked to present the credit card used for your purchase upon pick-up.
- To exchange your tickets for your purchases, you must bring your tickets (printed or mobile) and show your VALID ID that matches the name and ID number on the ticket. Expired, hole punched or otherwise damaged IDs will not be accepted, even with DMV paperwork – this has been and will continue to be our house policy.
- If tickets do not sell out online, bottles may be available for purchase in the Tasting Room after the sale concludes.

We’re hosting the Fundamental Observation + Number Crunch release party over the 7/20-21 weekend!
