Bottled Brews from Around the Globe

Another tsunami of beer has flooded the shelves of the Beer Room! Some of these are among the most sought after, some the most expensive and some just down-right tasty! Lot's of limited items on this list:

Scotland:
+ BrewDog Atlantic IPA - 7 wooden barrels of Punk IPA were sent out into the Atlantic on a trawler, some strapped to the deck for the full "at sea" experience. The barrels were then blended and bottle conditioned . This is an experimental brew made to simulate the original English IPAs that traveled on the sea from England to India, aging and growing in character in those arduous and unusual conditions.
+ BrewDog/Mikkeller "Devine Rebel" - Barleywine ale, 1/4 of which is aged in Scotch barrels
+Inveralmond Lia Fail and BlackFriar

Belgium:
+ Scaldis Prestige de Nuits
+ Scaldis Noel
+ Cantillon Grand Cru, Organic Kriek and Classic Gueuze back in stock!

Norway:
+ Mikkeller Beer Geek Breakfast Stout

Canada:
+ Dieu du Ciel! Aphrodite (a.k.a. Aphrodisiaque)

Australia:
+ Coopers Vintage Strong Ale 2009

USA:
+ Ommegang Adoration Ale 2009
+ Allagash Fluxus 2009 (brewed with sweet potatoes and black pepper)

And probably some I forgot!
Cheers,
Jeff

And finally today, I'd like to announce that Hill Farmstead, headed by Shaun e. Hill, is slated to start brewing hopefully later this year. Shaun is planning to release his Brett Saison, Pale Ale, Coffee Stout, Porter, and more in 750mL capped bottles. I've been messaging back and forth with Shaun all week about pricing and packaging and distribution. He told me today in a message sent from Denmark, that his fermenters should be shipping from the West Coast this week. He is currently the head brewer at the Nørrebro Bryghus brewpub in København. Shaun has also brewed at The Shed in Stowe, VT and Trout River in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont. I'm a personal fan of his Belgian-influenced style and look forward to the release of his Black Saison! I'll keep you posted as things move along.

Hope to see you in the store soon!
Cheers,
Jeff
