Hey people,


There has been an influx of new product this week and last. We have added 9 new beers and been able to get back in a few that we were out of stock of. It has been busy around the Dept. lately. So as far as the new items go..... First we received a special shipment of the Coney Island Lager from Hebrew, we weren't sure about whether we were going to be able to get any of it but alas. It's a hopped up lager and from what I have heard(I haven't tried it yet myself) it is pretty unique. We also expanded our line of Great Divide beers from Colorado as we have added the Hades Belgian-Style Ale in 22oz bombers and the Samurai Rice Ale in six packs. Very different for a brewery that excells in more English style varieties. These two are departures from that mentality.

From Belgian we have received in the La Grande Blanche from the Proef Brewery. It is a belgian white that doesn't really taste like a belgian white.

It is kind of in it's own category. So is Piraat 10.5% another new one from Belgium. It is a strong golden ale that has a strong following from those who have spent time in Belgium, including one of our own employees.
Finally we just got in a new group from the brewers of La Trappe. We now have the Urthel Hop-It a hop crazy Belgian Ale that should be good for any of our La Chouffe fans out there. We also got the Urthel Samaranth a Belgian strong ale at 11.5% ABV and sporting a 90 rating on

ratebeer.com and the Urthel Bock which is a American exclusive dubbel that only recently became available outside the usual winter season.
This weekend we will be tasting a whole group of porters, some English, some American, which should be perfect for the cooling down weather(I think it is supposed to be under 95, perfect for a thick dark heavy beer)
Keep checking back, as you can see we are pushing our sales reps pretty hard to bring us every beer they can get their hands on so there will be new items continuing to fill our shelfs. We may just need some more space. As always, Happy Drinking.

Are you going to be getting Bells Batch 8000? If so, when? Thanks!
Not likely. It is a very small batch item that I don't think will be coming to the state of Missouri. Maybe we will be surprised, though.
I have heard some talk of Batch 8000 in St. Louis so we will see. Keep checking the blog for news.
