Fall News From Cape Cod Beer Late September 2009
Prost!  Happy Fall!
Greetings!

While the calendar says fall, the weather seems to be a bit slow on the uptake, but we'll take it!  September and October are both jammed with fun and interesting things to do right here on Cape Cod!  So check out what we've got going on....
 
From a beer perspective we've got Red & IPA (of course) along with Harvest & Dunkelweizen.  The Summer seems to be gone - but there may be straggling cases coming back from the package stores..so if you really need one more summer fix - ask for it at the brewery - you might be surprised with a bottle or two!  For those who wonder: Dunkel is a "one batch" beer - when it's gone it's gone!  Harvest should be with us until Halloween!
 
Next up...Beach Blonde Ale.  Official date: October 1st - as promised!  And for those you are just dying for it: Porter will be here around November 1st.

2 GREAT BEER DINNERS - Same Night!
So it was not great planning - but both offer something wonderful:  Great beers paired with great food!
 
Please note that the Hyannis Yacht Club event requires that you be a dining member at the HYC. From experience we know it's well worth the money.  The food is wonderful and the scenery from even the bar is great!  Call 508.778.6100 for details.
