Lost Abbey 10 Commandments now on tap
A big thank you to the guys from Ballast Point who came up last weekend. You've tried all their beers by now, but did you know they also distill? Keep an eye out for their Old Grove Gin, which was just released this week. Ask for it at Beverage Warehouse, Whole Foods, or wherever it is you go to buy good beer.
Created with a blend of 12 freshly crushed botanicals and spices, Old Grove embodies the London Dry style, with an emphasis on subtlety and complexity.
On tap this weekend we've got Lost Abbey's 10 Commandments, a stronger, 9% version of their Lost and Found Abbey Ale. Also just put on another keg of Dogfish Midas Touch, Racer 5, and Einhorn Brewing's Unikator Doppelbock.
Yesterday we also tapped a fresh firkin of Stone Vanilla Bean Porter, so let's drain that thing tonight!
Weekend Stone Cask Update
Right now we've got Oaked AB on cask, along with some Smoked Porter with Vanilla Bean. That stuff never lasts long, so once it's gone, we've got a couple more Stone casks ready to go. Waiting to be tapped are Stone IPA with Amarillo, and the cask version of Sublimely Self-Righteous Ale w/ Columbus hops added (like it really needs more hops). This is a black IPA that was brewed as their 11th Anniversary Ale, but they liked it so much, they thought they'd give it a new name and brew more.
Also, don't forget about tonight's Irish Whisky tasting. If the turnout is anything like December's Single Malt Scotch tasting, you'll want to get here early!
