Bermuda Triangle Tripel Release Tonight

Flat Earth releases their seasonal Bermuda Triangle Tripel tonight at the Bulldog Lowertown. 5pm. Drink up.

Only the finest Belgian grains were brewed with Belgian candied sugar and orange blossom honey from the Bermuda Triangle then aged for several months to produce a bright, golden ale bursting with flavors of lemon, spice, and a touch of that orange blossom honey sweetness. This is an ale that is deceptively smooth and easy drinking, so be careful not to lose yourself in the flavors of Bermuda Triangle.

Belg-a-Rama #8

Al, the man behind all those great taps at the Blue Nile, has another week of specialness cooked up for you. This time it’s also to help honor St. Arnoldus Day.

Monday, July 18 is the Belgian holiday, St. Arnoldus Day, celebrating the holy man who exhorted citizens to drink beer, not water, in a time of plague. We’re celebrating with a total Belgian takeover of our tap lines for one day. It will also be the kick-off for Belg-a-Rama #8, our somewhat monthly series of 6 unique Belgian beers (meaning 2 beer is ever repeating in the series). The Belg-a-Rama #8 line-up:
Kasteel Cuvee des Chateau, an aged, blended version of the donker.
Poperings Hommel Bier, an early entry in the “Belgian IPA” category, before the term was ever coined.
McChouffe, the Scotch ale from Brasserie d’Achouffe.
Brasserie des Rocs Tripel Imperiale. (not an “imperial tripel”, just an incredible beer!
and two that need no introduction, Delirium Tremens and Duvel Single, the new draft version of Duvel.
The other 6: Saison Dupont, Tripel Karmeliet, Kwak, St. Bernardus Abt. 12, St. Feullien Tripel, and Cuvee des Jacobins Rouge.
Sample sets? Naturally!

Belgian Independence Week

Instead of simply celebrating Belgian Independence Day on July 21st, why not celebrate the whole week? There will be multiple events going on all over the cities from July 14th to July 24th. Duvel is releasing their brand new draft product, Duvel Single, Brewery Ommegang will have a special Spiced Saison available in various locations and many bars will be running specials on Belgian & Belgian Style ales during the week. Oh, and not to forget St. Arnoldus Day on July 18th!
