Beer Talk by Art of the Table

So it's April 2 and we hear it's going to be 80 degrees today and therefore we thought you would like to know what's in our cooler for your outdoor relaxation and entertaining this weekend!

Are you familiar with the Beer Advocate

This is our most recent review in the Beer Advocate from a customer. 
We were flattered, thanks!

"My wife and I love this shop!  The setting is nice and we love the old yet refined feel of the shop. The building sports nice tin ceilings and a really cool old beer cooler in the back. Brings back that old time country store feeling.  The customer service has been great every time we have been in there. The selection isn't huge because of the confined space of the cooler but it is diverse with local and some international bests.   I made a mixed six pack of lagers and the staff was very informative, letting me know which ones would be better choices than others.  Great store and we will
going back often!"     Reviewed on: 03-28-2010

If your answer to are you familiar was, "No, I'm not", we thought you might want to be aware of it.  It's a great way to look at what your beer peers think about beer from all around the world.  If you check it out and you love our beer cooler, feel free to write a review!

If you answered, "Yes, I am!" - Then I'm hoping you might take a moment to rate us as your neighborhood beer stop.  We would love to share your enthusiasm!

From the Meantime website, "Jam packed with English Fuggles and Goldings, the beer is brewed with as many hops as we can physically get into the copper. We then fill the lauter tun with hops for a further infusion and then we dry hop with the beer with even more hops using our own unique circulation process to ensure maximum contact between the hops and the body of the beer. All this gives us a final hopping rate of well over 2lbs of hops per barrel."

This gentle giant is really beautiful and expressive.  We think you should pair it with some spicy dish from the new Electric Eel down the street.  Or pick up an amazing blue cheese and put it together with some great bread next door and do it up right on porch night!

Remember though daylight gets longer, we are still open the same hours...
ALWAYS until 8pm EVERY NIGHT! (Except Sunday because we are closed)
