Get your week started off on the right foot! At 5:00 tonight (Monday) Town Hall will be releasing their Grand Cru. This Belgian style celebration ale is smooth in flavor, yet still clocks in at over 10% ABV.

If the Cru moves you, growlers of it will also be available for your portable enjoyment.

2009 Bock Fest – 2/21/09!

 Schell’s

Shame, shame, shame on us for not getting this posted as an event sooner!  I shall tar and feather myself.  August Schell is hosting their 22nd annual Bock Fest this year on Saturday, 2/21/09 in New Ulm.  Admission is $5 at the gate.  This event is generally very well attended….very, very well attended.  So, if you would actually like to get into the event, I suggest you get in line early.  I don’t see an official start time on the Schell’s website, but on Beer Advocate it says that gates crash open at 11 A.M. and you get the firehoses at 4 P.M.

What’s that?  Bock me, you say?  Well my friend, Bock you too!
