Limited Barebottle Crowlers: On Shelves Friday, September 2nd

IMG_1497

      We are elated to introduce crowlers (32 oz) from Barebottle Brewing Company to our shelves at all three stores this Friday to kick off the long weekend! Barebottle brews innovative beers inspired by the San Francisco Bay Area using local ingredients wherever possible, and partners with local homebrewing groups to develop new beers using a competitive method. All three stores will have crowlers of Galaxy Quest IPA. According to their “tech board”, “GQ is a New England-Style IPA that comes in at 6.1% ABV and at 58 IBUs: pairing hard-to-find Galaxy hops (BOOM! Tropical) with the famous Burlington yeast (BOOM! Peach) for a stone fruit & tropical aroma bonanza. Never give up! Never Surrender!”

Also, each store will have crowlers from an additional offering from Barebottle. The Castro store will have Scurvy Fighter; a 5.4% American Pale Ale (45IBUs) – inspired by 49er pioneers who grew citrus to combat weakness & anemia. This all Citra(R)-hopped medal-winner will keep you feeling strong!

The Clement store will have Sparkling Wheat; a 4.4% American Wheat Ale brewed with a blend of three wheat malt varieties, this crisp, refreshing, incredibly clear beer was designed to be enjoyed on those elusive hot SF days.

The Cortland store will have the Muir Woods IPA (B), the winner of this year’s SF Homebrewers’ Guild IPA competition. Like a citrus-laced pine cone, bursting with notes of pine needles & oranges. Rye malts add a liberating spiciness – both complex & refreshing!

 For our members, we shall reserve one if you give us a call. Otherwise, plan accordingly because these will be super-limited. Cheers!

Healthy Spirits: New Releases

First off all, I will address the PARABOLA issue. It didn’t come in today. It will (probably) come in tomorrow. Ugh. When it comes there will be a post on the blog. Only people in Beer of the Month Club will be able to reserve bottles, and there will definitely be bottle limits. We are only getting a few bottles of this one and we want to make sure everyone has a shot at it. I wish you all the best of luck.

We received a couple great bottles today, which you will find below.

1. R.I.P.A. on Rye-He’Brew’s Bittersweet Lenny DIPA aged in Sazerac Rye Barrels

2. Port Brewing Anniversary-10% Imperial IPA

3. Lost Abbey Tumblers and Stemmed Glassware!

4. Einbecker Mai Ur-Bock-Delicious, sessionable German seasonal

5. Gavroche Red-French Biere De Garde

Buffalo Belgian Bitter-A Hoppy Belgian Strong Ale from the makers of the fantastic Buffalo Stout

Healthy Spirits: Marin Bourbon Barrel Aged Dipsea Barleywine!

This annual release is usually exclusively sold at the brewery, but the brewer was kind enough to sell us a generous portion of the cases (only 100 cases were bottled).

The already awesome Old Dipsea is brewed with an English strain of Brettanomyces and then aged for 10 months in Heaven Hill bourbon barrels. HOO HA!

If you’re in Beer of the Month Club, you will be getting one of these with your June selections. For everyone else, it is on the shelf. Come and get it!

cheers,
