Draft Beer Update
On our wheat beer line, Philadelphia Walt Wit replaced Troegs Dream Weaver Wheat. Walt Wit, a very tasty and very local Belgian style white beer, is always a fast mover. I wouldn't be surprised if it is kicked by Sunday.

Long Trail Double IPA replaced Troegs Nugget Nectar. Nugget Nectar lasted about a day, no surprise. Hopheads should be happy with Long Trail Double IPA. It's got the hops you want.

Sixpoint Harbinger Saison replaced Ramstein Winter Wheat. I almost forget how many seasonal beers come from Sixpoint. This saison is meant to be harbinger of spring. Tomorrow and Sunday are supposed to be nice, so maybe it is. Saisons are Belgian farmhouse style ales. Many saisons are among my favorite beers. But since there is so much deviation with this style, you never know what you are going to get. I'll definitely be trying one this evening.

7:30 Update:


Heavy Seas Black Cannon IPA replaced Flying Fish Red Fish. Black Cannon is a seasonal black IPA from Baltimore, or as we and Cousin Mike like to say "Bahmer". I bet nobody is going to get that reference. Well maybe Mercedes might.

Yuengling Bock Beer replaced Manayunk Smokehouse Porter. Yuengling Bock is Yuengling's spring seasonal. It's tasty and priced right.
