GREELEY, CO (April 7, 2025)—WeldWerks Brewing Co. first debuted Coconut Medianoche in 2016 where the beer was received by long lines of stout enthusiasts. The beer has since gained esteem and notoriety as one of the brewerie’s most highly rated beers that frequently tops “best of” lists. Now, WeldWerks is poised to release the largest barrel blend of Coconut Medianoche to date, which will be available in limited quantities nationwide within the brewery’s distribution footprint.
Locally, tickets go on sale for 2025 Coconut Medianoche on Saturday, April 12, at 10 a.m. via Eventbrite (no access code needed, the ticket purchasing page will be viewable the second the sale begins). Eventbrite bottle pick up begins Friday, April 18 at 11 a.m. through May 4 at 7 p.m.
“Over 2,000 pounds of toasted and raw coconut were used in the process. After more than a month of moving liquid, blending barrels, and aging on coconut (including eight tank transfers), we are thrilled to finally share one of our favorite Medianoche variants with as many people as possible,” says WeldWerks Head Brewer Skip Schwartz. “Because of the sheer amount of coconut used, it was a tremendous feat to get a behemoth of a beer like this distributed nationally, and we couldn’t be happier with the final result.”
2025 Coconut Medianoche is a blend of Medianoche batches aged for over 28 months in a variety of barrels, including; 11-year Dickel Bourbon barrels, 15-year Sazerac Rye Whiskey barrels, 10-year Blanton's Bourbon barrels, 10-year Buffalo Trace barrels, nine-year Stagg Jr. Bourbon barrels, seven-year Weller Bourbon barrels, and 15-year Old Fitzgerald Bourbon barrels. After weeks of meticulous blending, this imperial stout was further aged on WeldWerks’ signature mix of toasted coconut flakes and unsweetened raw coconut chips. The result is a beer celebrated for its rich and complex flavor profile, prominently featuring freshly baked coconut macaroons, melted chocolate ganache, and an oaky bourbon warmth.
The 12.6% ABV 2025 Coconut Medianoche will be available in 500-milliliter bottles at WeldWerks, as well as at participating retailers within WeldWerks’ distribution footprint by mid-April. Visit WeldWerks’ Beer Finder for more information.
“A fun pairing that I encourage folks to try is to pair Coconut Medianoche with a coconut-based curry,” says Schwartz. “The curry would be intense enough that it would stand up to the viscosity of the Medianoche, and any spicy curry from the heat from the peppers would mellow out the stout’s sweetness.”
