Boundary Bay is back!
Last seen at 99 Bottles in 2007, Boundary Bay bottled beers have finally returned check 'em out...
- Inside Passage Ale IPA is spicy, with orange,
grapefruit, and pine hops balanced on a sweet and hearty malt body. It has
notes of pear, honey, and was voted most drinkable IPA by NW Brew News readers
in 2007.
- Cabin Fever Winter Ale is smooth and rich, with sweet caramel malts and notes of
citrus zest, toffee, brown sugar, and spice. This is a winter seasonal to warm
you up on a chilly eve.
- Scotch Style Ale is malty and sweet with a bit of toffee and
notes of peat. It has a dry finish, with a lingering aftertaste.
That's right, Jean-Marie Rock brewmaster at the world-famous
ORVAL Trappist brewery partnered with Boulevard Brewing's brewmaster Steven
Pawels to create an imperial pilsner using 100% Pilsner malt and 100% Saaz hops
and time-honored techniques. The result isColloboration No. 1 Imperial
Pilsne, an 8% ABV pils that's light, bright and spicy, with a crisp bitter
finish.
Also new and returning from Missouri's Boulevard Brewing are:

Pick up some Reserve Series beers
That's right... here's your chance to pick up a whole set of
Deschutes Reserve Series at 99 Bottles. These limited-edition beers are subject
to what's in stock now, so if you want some, don't delay. Deschutes says of
their Reserve Series, "We throw out all the rules when it comes to our
Reserve Series. But we throw in all the best ingredients and brewing techniques
to make small batches of innovative, bold flavors.
These brews age well and have a higher
alcohol content. Although our Reserve Series takes more time to brew, they
disappear quickly due to their popularity and limited release."
- Jubel 2010 or "super jubel" is once-a-decade ale
aged in aged in Oregon oak pinot barrels; fans of the winter seasonal Jubelale
we recommend you take the time to pick up a bottle
- The Abyss 2009 a rich, decadent stout with a complex profile
of molasses, licorice and other alluring flavors draw you further into the abyss,
11% alcohol with a 'best served after date' of this fall...yes, this beer only
improves with proper cellaring
- Black Butte XXI a colossal version of Black Butte Porter
that includes Theo's Chocolate cocoa nibs from Seattle and has been dry-hopped
with 100 pounds of Bellatazza's Oregon-roasted coffee; a portion was aged in
Stranahan's Colorado whiskey barrels and blended to create XXI to celebrate
Deschutes Brewery's twenty-first anniversary in 2009. The XXII is next-up in
the 2010 release, so pick up a bottle of XXI now and set it aside for a
vertical tasting
- Mirror-Mirror 2009 barleywine is a doubled-up version of
Mirror Pond Pale Ale at 11% ABV, with a rich malt base with hints of raisin and
oak tinged with the slightest citrus hop aroma; pair it with some stilton blue
cheese
WTF!!! Yep, that's right...
Wilco Tango FoxtrotLagunitas dubs Wilco Tango Foxtrot an ode to progress (or
lack thereof)...we're not quite in the red...or black...does that mean we're in
the brown? The brewery tipped its hand a while back with a message on its
Website: "We haven't figured out what this one'll be... it was supposed to
follow the 2009 Correction Ale with the name '2010 Recovery Ale', but it
doesn't look like we'll be there by March. WTF?" Lagunitas Wilco Tango
Foxtrot is a 7.3% ABV Brown Ale. Limited release, 22oz bottles
An apple a day keeps the doctor away
...whether that saying applies to hard apple cider is up to
your doc! If you haven't yet ventured into the Cider Cooler, what are you
waiting for? A new cider to arrive? Okay, here's a new cider for you to try...
Woodchuck Spring Cider exhibits a crispness of the Granny Smith apple with a
complimentary balance of honey. This handcrafted cider has a delicate sweetness
that does not overpower the palate and makes it very easy to drink. Woodchuck
Spring Cider is the ideal drink for a spring occasion and it pairs well with
many cheeses, breads, and hors d'oeuvres.
I'm thankful for...cherry beer!Though the importer may be a bit biased, they say of Drie
Fonteinen Oude Kriek, "Perhaps the best sour cherry beer in the
world." And we certainly agree that this IS a cherry beer to be very
thankful for...Oude Kriek is loaded with real cherries, which are added whole
into slowly fermenting oak casks. Yum!! Drie Fonteinen is the only remaining
traditional geuze blender in Belgium, using only 100% spontaneously fermented
lambic beer, aged in oak casks, with no artificial sweeteners or other
additives. Excellent on BeerAdvocate. 6% ABV, 12.7oz bottle
Unibroue Quelque Chose has finally returned after a two-year hiatus! Quelque Chose was specifically
developed as a winter beer because, when warmed to 160ºF, it can be taken
as a hot drink. On the other hand, on the rocks, it is a wonderful aperitif. The
cherries are soaked for months in slightly bitter ale before being blended into
the beer. Quelque Chose is made with dark roasted malts, and the end result is
something commonly known as an authentic nectar. The most original of the
Unibroue line, it is highly appreciated by winter-sports enthusiasts.
Hop-heads rejoice...Hop Pursuit has arrivedThe latest in the Brewmaster Reserve Series from Full Sail Brewing, Hop Pursuit Extra Pale Ale is both hoppy and sessionable.
