Rock Bottom Tapping

Wheat beers live on in the fall and Rock Bottom will be debuting their Belgian Style Wheat, Fantôme Wheat, Thursday. Described as being, “brewed with 60% White Wheat and a hint of lemongrass then fermented with a classic belgian yeast for hints of fruit and spice”, a pint of it can be yours for FREE if you stop in between 6:00 and 6:30.

Tuesday’s Ale Jail Tasting

The Ale Jail welcomes Mad River Brewing to the store for this week’s tasting. They picked up a gold, silver and bronze this year at the Great American Beer Festival for their 06 Barleywine, EPA and Super Chili Madness, respectively.

Come taste why!

Unibroue at the Ale Jail

Mark Proell from the Unibroue Brewery will be at Ale Jail sampling their huge line of excellent beers for this week’s Tuesday Tasting.

Trois Postoles, Don De Dieu, Chambly Noire, La Fin Du Monde, Maudite, Ephemere, Blanch De Chambly and Terrible will be open for tasting! Plus, Mark will be brining a very special case of beer not available in this market to sample and purchase.

Pre ABR Events

When Corey at Hohensteins clarified to me that the “pile of stuff” he was sending to us was in fact a “$hitload” of events to post, we clearly underestimated the sheer volume of events. If you live near a bar or restaurant, it’s highly likely something is happening there in the days leading up to Autumn Beer Review this Saturday.

Whether a full fledged beer dinner or simply the tapping of a unique keg, you can find the full listing of events here.  Please note that some of the events on the MnBeer calendar are duplicative.

Look for the ABR  program, including tasting seminars and tours, to be posted soon.
