New Beer Menu February 4th 2010
Hey now! Greetings to a brand new 2010. We look forward to a year filled with joy, prosperity and good beer!
With the new year comes several new bottles to whet your whistle. This week we are excited to feature Troegs Nugget Nectar in bottle. This seasonal beer, which has been described as nirvana for hop lovers, has been so talked about that is was sold out even before the distributors received their shipment from Troegs. We were lucky enough to jump on this bus and have plenty in stock. Stop in and see why Beer Advocate rates this beer an A and Ratebeer.com gives it a 99! Another new limited edition comes from our friends at Magic Hat. Vinyl is their spring amber offering and signals the long days of winter coming to an end. Other new noteworthy beers include Smuttynose old Brown Dog, a classic American brown ale and Duvel, a classic Belgian strong ale that is bottle conditioned.
Our draft system has seen two new additions this past week. The ever classic home town hero Brooklyn Lager has been a welcome addition. We have also added a phenomenal West Coast favorite, Flying Dog Doggie Style Pale Ale. This is one hell of a beer, perfectly balanced with slight hops and crisp malt flavors.
With a supposed winter storm coming tomorrow why not go out tonight to Press 195 and grab one of these beers! We look forward to it! And, if you know of a beer we need to carry please let us know.
