January Update from Cape Cod Beer
Greetings!
 
Happy New Year to all our friends and family!  Hopefully you are enduring the cold weather, no matter where you are, because according to Big Jim, who is hanging out in Jupiter Florida...baby its cold outside!  While we hearty New Englanders seems a bit more accustomed to these conditions, I guess when it gets to be in the 20s in Florida things get a little crazy.  So here is wishing seasonally appropriate weather for everyone - wherever you may be!
 
Cold weather usually means BIG BEERS...and since we hate to disappoint, we've brought ours to you a week earlier than planned.... Yes folks, Old Man Winter is NOW on tap at the brewery. 
 
We also had to switch around some dates on the release of our new 1 bbl series.  At the last production taste test ( It's a tough job but someone has to do it) they (Brian) declared it was not yet ready for prime time....so in a pledge to "sell no beer before its time" we hope to have it to you shortly.. Hopefully by Monday the 18th.. but stay tuned.  We'll announce it via email and Facebook.
 
For our Berry Merry Fanatics, there are still a few cases of growlers left at the brewery.  Get it while you can...it will be gone very soon!
 
Keep reading for the rest of the news....

Steel Web header
Porter & Cherries are a match made in heaven, so we have paired them up for you as a special beer for Valentines Day.  This one will only be available in champagne bottles..and while supplies last. (I believe we are shooting for close to 200 bottles) It's just the right amount of cherry, balanced nicely with the chocolate / roasted flavor of the porter.  Yum!  It's bound to become a Valentine's Day favorite!
