Update on Southern Tier, New Beers, and Free Pint Glass Friday tomorrow

Ok, so we got some more reliable info on the Southern Tier pre-sell. It appears that the distributor is off the hook and it was all a situation of bad communication over a new product in the market. It looks like we'll be able to re-order Southern Tier products every 4 weeks or so at the beginning. If they are selling well, they'll re-order every two weeks. There's more to it than that, but I'm not sure what's public knowledge and what's inside business, so until I learn more, I'll leave it at that. Problem solved.

New brews:
+ Sierra Nevada Torpedo Extra IPA 6 packs
+ Sierra Nevada E.S.B. 6- and 12-packs (arriving 1/23)
+ Rogue Younger's Special Bitter 22oz (1/23)
+ Long Trail Small Batch Imperial Coffee Stout 22oz (1/23)

And speaking of Long Trail, don't forget that tomorrow, Friday, Jan 23rd, is the next Free Pint Glass Friday! Ryan will be on-hand to pour 5 of their standard ales plus the brand new, super fancy Small Batch Imperial Coffee Stout (release today, hitting shelves tomorrow). It's free and it's from 5pm-8pm with valid ID. Bring your friends...it's a great way to kick-off the weekend!

Hope to see you soon!
Jeff
