More Summer Seasonals

Hey all, just another quick update of some new arrivals here in the beer department at Lukas Liquor.
Fist off, Sierra Nevada's Southern Hemisphere Fresh Hop Harvest Ale is finally here. This beer is made with hops that are harvested in New Zealand, where they are in season this time of year, and then dried and flown back to the U.S. to make this special beer. This beer is only available in 22 ounce bombers and checks in at about 6.7% alcohol.
From Southern Tier we now have their Imperial Cherry Saison. This intriguing brew is brewed with cherries and aged with French oak staves, which give it some overtones of spice that balance well with the sweetness of the cherries. It is about 8% alcohol.
Also in are a couple of different wheat ales from Breckenridge Brewery. The Breckenridge Summer Bright Ale is a returning summer seasonal, which is a light, crisp and refreshing wheat ale in just in time for hot summer days. We also now have Breckenridge's Agave Wheat Ale. This beer is brewed with Salmiana Agave nectar, which compliments the lightness of the wheat ale yet adds a subtle not of flavor from the agave.
Another new arrival is the Shiner 99. This beer is in commemoration of the brewery's 99th anniversary. It is a light and refreshing Munich Style Helles Lager, which is another very easy drinking beer on hot summer nights.
Another beer that we've had in stock for a little bit now that i'd forgotten to mention is the Export IPA from Schlafly. This full-bodied IPA is packed with hops and is about 8% alcohol.
Finally, the last new arrival that we have is Leinenkugel Summer Shandy 12 packs.
That's about it for this post of some new arrivals, I'll be sure and update as soon as we get in anything else new.

I grabbed the last ST Cherry Saison off the shelf last Friday. Did you get more in stock this week?

Yeah, we've got it back in and should have it now for most of the rest of the summer till their next seasonal comes out. Also I should be updating the blog tomorrow to mention a few new products in here too.
