Tomorrow: 09.09.09 Vertical Epic Release and Beer Dinner
Vertical Epic Day falls on a Wednesday this year, so we've got some very special mid-week beers that are going on tomorrow. On deck to be tapped tomorrow are a whole handful of Stone beers, including 09.09.09, Sublimely Self Righteous, Arrogant Bastard, Oaked Bastard, Old Guardian, 13th Anniversary, and Imperial Russian Stout.
The always popular Vanilla Bean Porter will be tapped as well, but this time we've got a keg and not a firkin! This beer is extremely rare outside of the brewery and will be a special treat for all you fans of the cask version. Here's an article from the Stone Blog about the creation of this beer.
In addition to these great beers, the Pint will also be welcoming the Let's Be Frank hot dog wagon, which will be serving up fine 100% beef hot dogs. For more information on Let's Be Frank, you can check out their webpage for their mission statement and info on sustainable farming, or follow their truck on Twitter.
The frankomobile will be around from 6ish-9pm, so come on out to the Pint for some 09.09.09 Vertical Epic and some great dogs!
Swine Flu Got you Down? Have a Blind Pig
THIS JUST IN: Blind Pig on Tap. Proven to innoculate you from swine influenza if you drink enough of it.*
NOW ON CASK: Stone Sublimely Self Righteous with Chinook.
Come on by for Memorial Day afternoon pints.
Wexford Irish Cream Ale Back On
Back by popular demand, we've got several kegs of Wexford Irish Cream ale. If you like Old Speckled Hen or Abbot's Ale, this is a no-brainer.
Going up on the chalkboard soon we've got a cask of Arrogant Bastard with Columbus hops, and on right now is a cask of Sublimely Self Righteous, Stone's Black IPA, dry hopped with Simcoe and Chinook.
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!
