In the beer release world its already summer as the arrival of Bell's Oberon brings many smiles. "Oberon is the color and scent of a summer afternoon", ya know....
We are expecting Schlafly Raz Hefe and Summer Kolsch later today.
Sleeman dropped a new one down to us this week, Honey Brown Lager. Do they have seasonal beers in Canada? Two maybe?A winter seasonal and a not winter seasonal?
For the first time we have Abbaye des Rocs Triple Impériale 750ml's. Previously we were only able to get 11oz'ers. Great timing on these, going to be sampling it tommorow. That's right, once again flipping the script on a Saturday tasting. If your keeping score at home, Belgian Blondes was originally scheduled. No More. Staying in Belgium though....I think you will appreciate the switch.
Tommorows Lineup:
Abbaye des Rocs Triple Impériale
De Ranke Guldenberg
La Fin Du Monde
De Dulle Teve
Gouden Carolus Triple
The most interesting new thing to come through the door this week comes from Italy. We continue to get some very unique brews from a country that doesn't make ya think of beer. Pricey suckers, but progressive and original ideas. The newcomer is QUARTA RUNA, from Birrificio Montegioco. Ale brewed with peaches. One the more interesting labels I have seen in awhile, this comes from the same brewery as Draco which we had for a short time a few months ago. The Draco was brewed with Blueberries. Hope to get some more of that in real soon. We could only get our hands on 6 bottles of the Peach varietal.
Whats going on Italy? The Quatra Runa label:
