Hi all, just a quick update on some new beers and the tasting schedule for June and July.
Fist off, Mendocino Brewing company's summer seasonal has arrived. It's a Belgian White Ale that is unfiltered, crisp, and fresh and very refreshing for hot summer days or nights. Also from Mendocino, we now have their variety 12 pack. It contains three each of their Red Tail Ale, White Hawk IPA, Eye of the Hawk Ale, and the Black Hawk Stout.
Another new arrival is the Rejewvenator, which comes from He'Brew Brewing company. This new brew is intriging and unique in that it's brewed with fig concentrate, which should be interesting. It comes in 22 ounce bottles and checks in at about 7.8% alcohol as well.
Also we wanted to let you know that we do have a few bottles of New Belgium La Folie sour ale left, but they won't last long. Coming this Friday we will also finally be getting in a few beers from Jolly Pumpkin Brewery out of Michigan. I'm not sure yet which ones they will be, but be sure to look for some of the beers from this great brewery then.
As far as the tasting series goes for June and July, anticipate it to line up something like this:

May 24: Schlafly

May 31: Japanese Beers

June 7: Arcadia

June 14: Southern Tier

June 21: Summer Cans

June 28: Shiner

July 5: Summer Seasonals

July 12: Belgian Saisons / French Farmhouse Ales

July 19: Lambics

July 26: Heineken

Just a reminder all of these beer tastings will take place on Saturday's in the beer department from 1-3 in the afternoon. That's it for this update, I'll try and update again on Friday when Jolly Pumpkin comes in.
Cheers,
-Tad
