Corey dropped us a line to let us know about a Two Brothers event taking place at Acadia Cafe on Tuesday, March 3rd at 7pm. They will be mulling Avalon and have it availble for your glass at 7pm. Avalon is a 7.7% spiced ale with pressed apples.
I stopped into Town Hall on Friday with friends and had an excellent night – I thought Batch 1000 was heartily hopped and flavorful and also enjoyed a few sips of Winterberry. Good times, good people, great service! Anyway, I noticed that they were tapping Twisted Reality today but promptly forgot. Thankfully Mike came through with a reminder…
Hi,
You took care of most of the Batch 1000. Today we will release Twisted Reality Barleywine. The current batch is a 9.9% abv American Barley Wine. Release at 5pm. Yes, we will have growlers.Humpty Dumpty (John) in the kitchen had a great fall…….his injury will mean NO SMALL PLATE TODAY- You have received them very well and they will return next release….sorry. (John will be OK.)
Tomorrow Night (Tuesday)
We will have a Reps here from the Lion Brewery (Sri Lanka) serving the famed Lion Stout and the limited Lion Imperial Lager and Chisago Lakes Dist. serving the bold Double Kilt Lifter from Moylan’s Brewery in California. These are very nice beers that you can sample tomorrow night only for just $3 per pour. We also will have some logo glassware from those breweries that you can take home with you. This is from 6:30-9:30pm 3/3- try and stop by for a great opportunity to try these wonderful beers and at very little cost!Cheers,
Mike
Here’s a great excuse to pick up a wonderful book detailing Minnesota beer history and shop in a damn fine beer store. Head on over to The Four Firkins on Monday, March 2nd to meet author Doug Hoverson, get your book signed and try some beer. Sounds like a winning combination to me!
Come and meet Doug Hoverson, author of “Land of Amber Waters”. He will be at The Firkins to shoot the breeze with us and sample a few beers this coming Monday from 6:00pm.
Haven’t read the book yet? It’s only the entire brewing history of Minnesota! We’ll have copies for sale and Doug will even sign them for you. Here’s a link to the books website.
Head on over to the Blue Nile Monday for a special tasting of beer from Moylan’s & Lion. Drink up!
Next Monday [3-2], from 7-10, $3 pints of Moylan’s IPA, Lion Stout, & bottles of Lion Lager, courtesy of Brad the Beerguy, who will bring his inimitable self along for the fun of it. Moylan’s Moylander & Double Kilt-Lifter will also be on tap, they will not be on special, but the 8-10 Happy Hour will apply, and you can buy a 12 ounce pour for $7 and get a pint of something else, say, Lion Stout, or Moylan’s IPA, on the house!
hope to see you Monday,
cheers,
