March Madness @ Cape Cod Beer
 Greetings!
First off let me give a hearty thanks to all those folks who joined us last week at the Chatham Squire.  It was a great turn out - the food was great - and it seemed everyone enjoyed our new Beach Blonde Ale.  We kicked that keg (a 1/2 bbl) in what might have been a record time!  Thanks again for coming out and showing the Squire some LOVE in the early spring!
 
Next up - it's March Madness!  And while that usually refers to the NCAA basketball tournaments, we have started to use it to describe the next couple weeks - we have lots going on...aside from full bore construction mode, there are a bunch of events to tell you about...some new accounts and a bunch of re-openings!
 
Feedback on the Beach Blonde Ale Please - Whether you liked it or not -  we're tough - we can take it - tell us what you think!  It helps us make decisions about whether to do it again? and when? and for how long?  You can reply to this email with comments!

Congrats to Team Cape Cod Beer!   For their great finish the in 2009 St Martin Heineken Regatta.
A very respectable 6th place overall with a 3rd place finish in the 3rd race. We're very proud of your acheivements, and only slightly jealous of your experience.  From the photos we got - it looks like the crew had a GREAT time!    more photos
