Draft Beer Update
Sierra Nevada Torpedo replaced Bear Republic Racer 5. We agreed to run Torpedo for a couple of months as part of Sierra's test marketing of Torpedo on draft. We started off with 3 halves, which we expect will get us through to next Wednesday's delivery. Feel free to prove us wrong though :-) Let's see how many halves we can kick. Sink the Torpedo!

On line 10, our Danger Will Robinson line, Weyerbacher Merry Monks replaced Dock Street Prince Myshkin Imperial Stout. Merry Monks is a powerful abbey style tripel.

The sixtel of Ommegang Cup O Kyndnes lasted quite a bit longer than I expected. Replacing it is Philadelphia Fleur de Lehigh. Our new friend Nicole Yates, of Polish Goodnees Pierogies, says this year's batch of Fleur de Lehigh is especially good. We are committed to serving fresh, real food here at The Grey Lodge, and Nicole's pierogies are as real and fresh and local as you can get. So expect a pierogie of week to start gracing our specials board as we rotate through Nicole's various types of pierogies.

Sixpoint Righteous Ale replaced Lost Abbey Carnevale. Righteous Rye was the first Sixpoint beer served here in Philly. One guess where that event occurred.
