Dave Berg from Schell’s let us know that Schmaltz Alt was bottled the other day. It’s a double or sticke alt.  It should be in stores soon. They only brew it once a year, so when it’s gone, it’s gone…

…or Hannukah, Kwanza, Festivus, etc….

Many thanks to Don from Lake Superior Brewing for inviting me to visit Golden Leaf Tobacco tonight for a low-key tasting and some great beer. The guy really came through, bringing some Old Man Winter Warmer from his personal collection. The beer had been aged 2-3 years, and boy, was it a tasty barleywine. Good times.
