Town Hall Release…and more!

The holiday season is upon us, so here come the holiday beers. I am sure you are all fond of the Jolly Saint Nick, we decided to give his little hard working buddies some kudos this year as well.

Santa’s Elves get their own ale this year to kick off the season. “Elves Elixir” is a pale ale that weighs in at a mild 4.8%abv as designed to be a session style pale ale for you to take to your holiday partys. We are trying to help you out, you can have a couple drinks without being “that guy/girl”.

So holiday will work something like this.
Beers you will see (subject to possible change):
Elves Elixir , Festivus Mocha Stout (chocolate and coffee this year), Grinch’s Grog, 1800, Angel’s Abbey, Wee Heavy

We hope to have a release again next week (Monday) depending on consumption and will certainly have at least 3 of these beers pouring by Monday, 12/21. Monday 12/21 will be our annual Holiday fire and Festivus release. We will build a fire and mull some ale for you as our thank you for your patronage (fire 5-7, mulled ale on the house while supply lasts).

Growler Holiday Packs will again be available beginning 12/21 (buy the three named and save $3 on your purchase)

Check out the new Town Hall merchandise and consider one of our holiday merchandise packs for that avid beer lover on your shopping list. (Really you should check it out….soft male and female winter wear, fancy gold leaf glassware with a stem, etc.)
Lots of info for you….more details to follow.

Best come to the brewery today and get some “Elves Elixir”….don’t you think?

Do You Want to Brew on Saturday?

If you have some free time this Saturday and have been thinking about getting over to Vine Park to brew some beer for your drinking pleasure, or maybe as a special holiday gift, here’s your chance.

Strange but true: due to a cancelation we have all six kettles available at Noon this Saturday. These are the only available kettles that get you beer before Christmas that are not during the normal work week. Grab them quick as they’ll be gone soon.
