Mon, 01 Dec 2008 - Loads and Loads of Stuff for a Monday!

Beer Season Opens Today
Today is the first day of Beer Season, our longest running promotion. This is our 13th Beer Season. 13 years and the deal remains the same. If it ain't broke...

Beer Season starts on the first day of deer season here in PA, which is the Monday after Thanksgiving, which is today. Drink all 13 beers of the week, one per week for 13 weeks, and get a free limited edition T-shirt. No strings attached. Sign up anytime this week.

The first beer of Beer Season is Philadelphia (Pedro) Feliz Navidad Holiday Lager. See below for a great time to sign up for Beer Season.


Tonight! Philadelphia Holiday Lager Rollout Party
Tonight is the official rollout party for Philadelphia Brewing's newest seasonal, (Pedro) Feliz Navidad Holiday Lager. Folks from Philly Brewing will be on hand between 5pm and 8pm. I'm sure they will have some tricks up their sleeves.

That would be a great time to sign up for Beer Season (see above).

Draft Changes
Stoudts Winter Ale replaced Stoudts American Pale Ale. This year Stoudts Winter is a porter.

We managed to score another barrel of Victory Harvest Pilsner, Victory's wet-hopped Pilsner. It replaced the very wonderful Victory Dark Lager.

I've been waiting for Yards Brawler to come on tap here ever since it was announced. Yards's newest beer, their reformulated Brawler, is a dark mild. It replaced Harpoon Rauchfetzen.
