New at Merchant's

Here's the "great-beers-for-cheap" scoop.....
*McChouffe Belgian Brown Ale, 750ml, only $5.45 bottle. Reduced from
$9.49. Wow. Beautiful beer.
*Maredsous Triple, Belgian abbey ale, 750ml, only $5.99 bottle. Reduced
from $8.99. Wow. Again.
*Sam Adams Longshot 2008 winners 6pk. Has two bottles of Mike McDole's
Imperial IPA. Only $6.99 6pk (reduced from $9.99). Once more. Wow.

AND, NEW STUFF!

*OKTOBERFEST! (Speaking of such things, look out for Slows BarBQ
Oktoberfest celebration on Monday September 21st. It will replace the
regular "Beer Club" dinner. Mr Cicerone and I will be the speakers,
and yes, I, at least, will be wearing lederhosen. More details coming at a
later date!)
Time to don one's lederhosen, and sing the Schnitzelbank song! Arrived a
little early, but oh well. We have....
MUNICH Spaten, Hofbrau- bottles, and 5L MINI KEGS!, Paulaner, Hacker Pschorr.
OTHER GERMAN BRANDS Ayinger (my favourite!!), Erdinger Oktoberfest Weizen,
Weihenstephan Fest, Beck's O'Fest
USA Bell's, Flying Dog Dogtoberfest, Great Lakes, Summit (so far).

MORE NEW STUFF
*KUHNHENN 10TH ANNIVERSARY GRAND CRU- ONE CASE ONLY
*GREAT DIVIDE CHOCOLATE OAK-AGED YETI. Mmm. Has a hint of cayenne.
*GREAT DIVIDE 15TH ANNIVERSARY WOOD-AGED DOUBLE IPA
*HE'BREW "REJEWVENATOR" DOPPELBOCK/BELGIAN STRONG. Brewed with dates.
*ALVINNE EXTRA IPA- Belgian IPA
*LE BALADIN SUPER BALADIN "SOUR EDITION 2005". Italian sour Belgian-style

*GOOSE ISLAND "PERE JACQUES" 2009 BELGIAN-STYLE STRONG IN 22oz BOTTLES
*DOGFISH HEAD THEOBROMA (returns). (An interesting beer that,
unfortunately got stomped on by my spicy mole sauce.)

Next week there's some new beers coming from Shelton brothers, including a
single blend lambic from Drie Fonteinen.

Okay, all for now....
