Rye pale ale in the fermentor. First one I ever had was at the Alchemist, in Vermont. Got me convinced I could brew good beer from the grains instead of the extract. Thanks John!

Come by the Filling Station tonight and try our three new beers (or one or two…) to help us celebrate! On track 11 is the San Francisco IPA, our third IPA. Track 12 heads to Munchen for a malty Marzen, and last but not least track 13 is boarding for Louvain – get ready for fun! This farmhouse/saison clocks in at 9.5% abv, and as such is in our premium pour list.

Come sign a Declaration of Beer Independence, and start the week off right!

After being an ESB regular for a week or so I am amazed at how the Belgian caramel malt and the Czech Saaz finishing hops come through on this one. If you haven’t tried this yet, come in for a treat. I will brew it again soon, but it
will be out for a while, and I don’t expect it to last the week.

It is American Craft Beer week May 14-20. To celebrate we will have

two-maybe three new beers on tap. A farmhouse/saison type, a Marzen, and hopefully our third IPA. There will be other offerings as well, pint glasses, growlers…
All your base are belong to us… All our beers are belong in your glass!

Possibly the thirteenth as well-who wouldn’t want a third IPA on tap?

Track ten to Kansas City is boarding this afternoon. An easy drinking pale ale, brewed with UK and US malts and hops, and flaked maize (you call it corn…). Can you say warm weather beer? Crisp, dry, fizzy… Mmm!
