Boulevard has released their seasonal Bourbon Barrel Quad (BBQ). This monster good quad is brewed with cherries and aged in bourbon barrels for 6 months. Don't hesitate on this one. Limited bottles and a 3 bottle limit per customer.

Squatters Brewing out of Utah has shipped us their IPA. This extremely aromatic beer boasts a 6.5% ABV and a ton of malt backbone. This could be your next "ah ha" IPA.

Rogue has released their excellent seasonal, Santa's Private Reserve. This American amber ale has all attributes for the style. Malty, bready with a full compliment of hops. Limited this year, so don't wait.

We have also got in a second shipment of Ska Euphoria Pale Ale. If you haven't tried this aromatic, flavorful pale ale then you had better! We have already sold 125 cases this year if that is any indication.
Squatters Full Suspension Pale Ale is also on sale this week. This 4% very sessionable beer is soaked with hop character and is best enjoyed in copious amounts. Just $6.99 a six pack through this week.
