BEER ARRIVALS AND OTHER THINGS

Half case left and that’s all we’ll see this year.

Dogfish Head 120 Min. IPA--Too extreme to be called beer? Brewed to a colossal 45-degree plato, boiled for a full 2 hours while being continuously hopped with high-alpha American hops, then dry-hopped daily in the fermenter for a month & aged for another month on whole-leaf hops!!! This 120 Minute I.P.A. is by far the biggest I.P.A. ever brewed! At 20% abv and 120 ibus you can see why this beer is THE HOLY GRAIL for hopheads!

These were requested many times during our "beer door" survey. We’ll look to add more. The UP’s first micro-brewery. (Not to be confused with brewpub).

Keweenaw Pick Axe Blonde Ale--The lightest in their family of ales, a true single malt. Refreshing to taste, gorgeous to look at and a great introduction to the extraordinary world of craft-brewed Michigan beers. This light golden ale comes with a distinctive malt flavor and just a kiss of hops.

Keweenaw Red Jacket Amber Ale--Medium bodied and lightly hopped, this classic Oktoberfest-style ale is brewed in tribute to the Red Jacket Mine of what is now Calumet and to the glory days of the copper industry in the Keweenaw Peninsula.

Other new additions. This next one is one of my favorite stouts.

Furhermore Three Feet Deep--This is their rendition of a Dry Irish Stout, circa 1890. Deep roasted malt is what makes a stout a stout, and years ago the fire of the kiln would have added its distinct smoky flavor during the roasting process. Three Feet Deep rekindles that lost flavor with a small addition of peat smoked malt. At 14.4° Plato, this is not a heavy beer, but you wouldn't know it as the round and earthy quality of peat fills your senses.

I don’t know how long this will be available, we’ve had it in stock for a month now. Sorry for the lack of heads-up on this one.

Tyrenena Dirty Old Man Imperial Rye Porter--Imperial Rye Porter aged in Rye Whiskey Barrels. Statement of Composition: 40% Malt Beverage aged in Rye Whiskey Barrels. 60% Malt Beverage. The aroma is of strong rye, with roasty notes of coffee and chocolate. The taste is mostly of rye, roasted coffee, and chocolate. The Whiskey barrel added nice oak flavors and it was nice that the barrel aging didn’t go over the top. Very nice overall.

Otter Creek White Sail—A Belgian style white beer brewed with wheat, malted barley, hops and a little bit of coriander and orange peel. It is mild yet flavorful with fruity undertones and haze from the yeast and wheat. This ale is delicious on its own or with and orange slice.

Erdinger Champ-- The ideal lifestyle wheat beer: it's brewed in such a way that it can be drunk straight from the bottle, but without compromising Erdinger's legendary flavor and high quality standards. With its fine yeast, Erdinger Champ has the character of a classic Bavarian wheat beer. The yeast gives the beer is natural, slightly cloudy appearance.

Two beers that won gold medal this year in the World Beer Cup Championships.

Widmer Hefeweisen-- America's Original Hefeweizen. A golden unfiltered wheat beer that is truly cloudy and clearly superb. Ever since Widmer introduced Hefeweizen to America in 1986. 1998 and 2006 GABF Gold Medal Award Winner. 2004 Gold Medal Beer Cup.

Left Hand Milk Stout—Strong roasted malt and coffee flavors build the foundation of this classic cream stout. The addition of milk sugar mellows the intense roastiness and gives this beer the most incredible creamy mouthfeel.

Now, a question. We’ve had initial contact with a brewery rep from Duval Brewery about doing a beer dinner up here. We would like feedback on any interest, ideas or other comments. We’re not aware of anybody else doing something like this and it would be a great opportunity to sample some fine beers and mingle with other folks with the passion for great beer that we all have.
