Although Belgium is roughly the size of Maryland, they have almost 200 breweries.  And despite sharing borders with the much larger countries of France (which produces world-renowned wines), and Germany (known for pioneering many styles of lager), Belgium has created an incredible array of unique ales for quite some time.  It is interesting, [...]]]></description>

We take great pride in these things, as they’re very important to our business.  That being said, this month we’d also like to elaborate on [...]]]></description>

Tonight we'll have two limited-release versions of their Yeti Imperial Stout. The Belgian Style Yeti is fermented with a Belgian yeast strain, adding interesting spice and fruit notes. This batch has been cellared in the keg for 8 months, so it will be especially smooth. The Espresso Oak Aged Yeti is a fresh keg, with [...]]]></description>

Through our authentic UK-style cask engine, we'll be tapping a firkin of Convict Hill Oatmeal Stout with orange peel. As if that wasn't enough, we'll have a limited number of UK pub-style pint glasses (given out in two rounds at 4 and 6pm), and we'll be joined by Adam and some of the brewers from [...]]]></description>

Recently we tapped their Dugana IPA; it was a big hit and didn't last long. For this week's special tap, we've got a fresh keg of the original- the big brother if you will. And it's big alright! At 10.2% ABV and 102 IBUs, this is one of the hoppiest beers that's available. Avery mightily [...]]]></description>

This is no ordinary barleywine stlye ale. As widdershins means "counterclockwise," they've crafted this ale contrary to the direction of the American style barley wine. Ingredients include "Left Hand custom" malt, peated malt, red wheat, 5 different kinds of hops, and Belgian Candi sugar. Half the batch was aged 11 months in whiskey casks for [...]]]></description>

Keep this elegant German weizen glass when you order their Dunkelweiss (German for "dark wheat"). This authentic rendition of the style should assuage fans of Live Oak's Primus Weizenbock, a seasonal brew that will be gone until next winter.
