Quadruple Beer Release at Town Hall

By on June 27, 2011in beer events, breweries

Talk about a reason to start the holiday weekend early! Four beers being released, none for more than $3 each, sounds like an excellent way to spend Wednesday evening.

Hey All,

Wednesday 6/29 we will celebrate our independence with a Big Bang. We will release:

1800- English IPA

ERB- Cascadian dark ale inspired by brewery baby Elliot Ryder Bischoff

Macaroon- Yep, a summer coconut beer

All beers pouring and growlers ready by 5 pm. Get ERB and Macaroon for $2.50 and 1800 for $3 per pint from 5-6pm. Get your growlers for your big holiday weekend tomorrow!

Also, on wednesday try one keg only of “1776” when the American IPA and the English IPA combine to form one united beer. $3 per pint while the supply lasts.

Cheers,
Mike

Beer & Cheese Pairing at Midwest Supplies

By on June 15, 2011in beer events, beer stores

Beer and cheese are soul mates. Find out how to make the perfect matches at Midwest Homebrewing and Winemaking Supplies.

Join us at the store for a FREE Beer and Cheese pairing! Michael is one of our favorite speakers on all things related to beer. His beer making knowledge began right here at Midwest Supplies as a home brewer, and he has since expanded his skills as a Certified Cicerone (sommelier of the beer world). We’ll keep the store open a bit later so you’ll have time to shop when you’ve finished learning about pairing beer with cheese!
