Hello all, my name is Tad Brewer and I'm gonna be handling the duties in the beer department now, as well as the posts on the blogs. Some of you may already know me. I've already been working in the beer department for about the past year now and have done numerous Saturday afternoon tastings as well. I'll do my best to update the blog as frequently as possible and whenever we get in any new products or have any special events. I'll post a tasting schedule within a couple of days that will cover all of our Saturday afternoon tastings for June and July. As far as the tasting this weekend goes, it will be some of the beers from Schlafly, including their summer seasonals.
Also on a side note, I just wanted to let everyone know that we just recently received a limited release of the Schneider and Brooklyner Hopfen-Weisse. This beer, for those who don't know or didn't get a chance to try it last year, is a collaboration between Schneider and Brooklyn breweries. It is basically a hopped up version of Schneider Weisse and it is definitely a staff favorite here.
Anyway, that's about it for now, look for another post in a day or so on the upcoming tastings here. I look forward to working for you and getting to know those of you who do not already know me here.
Cheers,
-Tad Brewer

Tad! I think it would be great if Lukas offered something like Beertopia does in Omaha:
Beginning Tuesday, July 1st for five consecutive weeks we will conduct classes on brewing history, beer styles, lore, and factoids from the world’s greatest brewing nations. These classes are designed to give the participant a broad based, usable knowledge of the many styles of beer brewed throughout the world.
If you ever wanted to know the difference between a Belgian Tripel and a Dubbel or the history of the India Pale Ale or why beer skunks, then these classes are a must for you. Besides what other class have you attended where drinking beer is mandatory!
