Tax-Free and new brews

Hey all, just a reminder that the VT tax-free holiday applies to alcoholic beverages and you will save the 6% sales tax on any beer, wine and liquor purchases made today, Saturday, Aug. 22nd! Stop in and stock up for the rest of the summer barbecues, parties and general merriment.

New in this week:
+ Long Trail Imperial Porter 22oz
+ Harpoon "Leviathan" Saison Royale 4 pack
+ Shipyard Pumpkin-head
+ Otter Creek Oktoberfest
+ Wolaver's Pumpkin

Cheers,
Jeff

Back in stock!

Hey all, it's been about 6 months since these beers have been offered to us, but we snapped at the chance to bring some in. Enjoy (quickly) while they last. Hopefully we won't have to wait so long next time...

- Weihenstephaner Hefe and Lager 6pks
- Weihenstephaner Hefe, Dunkel, Kristallweiss, and Lager 500mL's
- Abbott Ale 4pk cans
- Wexford Irish Cream-style ale 4pk cans
- Old Speckled Hen 4 pack cans
- Tanner's Jack 6 packs

Sierra Nevada Torpedo is reportedly coming back in stock on Friday (8/21) and will be the last shipment before Labor Day. In other news, Merchant du Vin was out-of-stock on a few of their beers for our last order, resulting in a dearth of Rochefort, some Lindeman's Lambics flavors, and a few others. Hopefully we'll be getting a fill-in shipment and/or be offered more from the Rochefort line of beers in the near future. I've filed my request for these with the importer (Merchant du Vin) and you should too! Let them know Vermonters need their tasty(-iest) brews!

And in the "Rumor-Mill," I heard today from reliable sources that McAuslan (St. Ambroise) will be making a triumphant return to Vermont in the coming months.

Cheers,
Jeff

Fall is coming to the Beer Room early...

Oktoberfest and Pumpkin beers have started to line our shelves as the breweries anticipate our ever-changing seasonal-influenced beverage needs. In-house now:
+ Pennichuck "The Big O" Oktoberfest 22oz
+ Smuttynose Pumpkin 6 packs
+ Gritty McDuff Halloween 6 packs
+ Beck's Oktoberfest
+ Spaten Oktoberfest

And more to come soon.

Prost!
Jeff

In this week and Victory coming soon!

A little late on the update:
+ Rogue (OR) Maierfest Lager 22oz
+ Southern Tier (NY) "Iniquity" 22oz (Imperial Black Ale)
+ Woodchuck (VT) Fall Cider 6 packs
+ Sierra Nevada (CA) Anniversary Ale IPA 6 and 12pks
+ Magic Hat (VT) Roxy Rolles (released as Fall seasonal this year with new recipe)

Also, I know I've been saying that Victory Brewing is coming to Vermont for over a year, and yes the newest delivery date flew by this week without a sign of Victory. They're finalizing their contract with their VT distributor and are hoping to ship to VT the first week in September. Cross your fingers!

And I got word today that De Dolle (Beglium) will be on it's way to Vermont before the end of the year!

In the meantime, you've got plenty of catching up to do. See you in the Beer-Room soon?
Cheers,
Jeff
