case!), Wooden
Nickel 5th Anniversary Saison, and all 6 different labels of
our Belgian Dark Strong, Illustration Ale.

It's been a wild couple of weeks, burning through way more beer than we planned both here at Growler Hours and through the distributor.  As a result, we'll see a shortage of Pedal Pale Ale probably starting later today at the brewery, and it already started at the distributor this week.  But this is TEMPORARY.  We'll have fresh stock of Pedal Pale Ale in their coolers by FRIDAY, July 16th at the latest...and back in stock here at the brewery maybe on that Thursday the 15th.  Thanks for your patience - and for your THIRST!

So, here's the lineup:

Year-Round Beers:

Big Hop IPA,  Black Strap Stout, Monkey Boy
Hefeweizen, and Fat Gary Nut Brown Ale

Seasonal and One Offs:

Spring Seasonal: East End Witte, Summer Seasonal: Pedal
Pale Ale (likely to run out today for about a week-see above) , Session Ales Monkey Girl Dunkelweizen
and Deserving Porcupine (Best Bitter) <-both of these are running on our last kegs as well. And if something runs out today, we'll tap Session Ale #40: Wood St. Kvass a bread beer made from 60 loaves of Wood Street Bakery's Rye and fermented with bread yeast!

Big Bottles:

2009 Gratitude Barleywine (This release of 2009 stock will end on July 31.), Smokestack Heritage Porter (last case!), Wooden
Nickel 5th Anniversary Saison, and all 6 different labels of our Belgian Dark Strong, Illustration
Ale.

Hope to see you here soon!  Cheers, Scott

Save the date!!!

 

I've been a little more than a little neglectful about posting our current draft list here, so it's time I got caught up.

On Tap for Growler fills, we've got your year-round favorites:

Big Hop IPA,  Black Strap Stout, Monkey Boy Hefeweizen, and
Fat Gary Nut Brown Ale

Seasonal and One Offs:

Spring Seasonal: East End Witte, Summer Seasonal: Pedal Pale Ale, Session Ales Monkey Girl
Dunkelweizen and Wheat Hop.  We had to make room for the Pedal after the Keg Ride, so once the last of the Wheat Hop is gone, Blabber and Smoke will come back for a bit, and there's even a chance that Snow Melt will briefly return.  So watch for that.

Big Bottles:

Gratitude Barleywine, Smokestack Heritage Porter (about 5 cases left), and Wooden Nickel 5th Anniversary Saison. We sold the last bottles of Bigger Hop last week, so look for that to come back later this year, completely reformulated and quite different... more true to the double IPA style, if I have my way.

See you soon - and Happy Memorial Day!

Cheers, Scott
