Here's the list of this week's new arrivals, some hitting the shelves for the very first time, some for the first time this year. Whichever the case, we hope you enjoy!
This week's new beer
- Great Lakes Lake Erie Monster, $3.29/12oz - Bittered with Simcoe, flavored with Fuggle, at 9.1% ABV this is, according to the GLBC webstite, "an unfiltered imperial India pale ale with hug hop flavor." (Editor's note: At the time of this writing, we also have a limited supply of sixtels available, $92.00 per 1/6 barrel. Get yours while supplies last!)
- Steenbrugge Abbey beer, 4 varieties, $8.29/750ml - "In 1084, Arnold of Tiegem founded St. Peter’s Abbey in thriving West Flanders. Legend tells that Arnold, during working hours, would brew beer with which he then used to heal ailing builders. Therefore, not only was his beer much sought after; he himself was declared Patron Saint of Belgian brewers. Luckily, the secret of Steenbrugge Abbey beer’s full-bodied flavor was kept and has since been handed down through generations of brewing masters" (source). Varieties available:
- Blond
- Dubbel bruin
- Tripel
- Wit
