The Comeback


Well, not only was there a big football comeback over the weekend, your regular blogger also came back -- from maternity leave.  It's hard to leave a new baby and return to work, but it's also good to be back "in the know" on all the fun new stuff coming out in the craft beer world.  We've got deliveries of fresh product every week, and I'll always post them here, so check every Wednesday to be the first to know what's hot!

Here's what's being delivered this week!  Lawrenceville should have most of these in stock already, and Woodbridge expects their delivery on Thursday.  As always, please call the store if there's something specific you're coming in to grab - our craft beer department moves fast and things sell out very quickly!

Dogfish Head Seaquench Ale
SeaQuench Ale is our session sour quencher made with lime peel, black lime and sea salt. It’s a citrusy-tart union of three German styles of beer blissfully brewed into one. We begin by brewing a straightforward Kolsch with lots of wheat and Munich Malt, then we brew a salty Gose with black limes, coriander and our sea salt. We follow it all up with a citrusy-tart Berlinerweiss made with lime juice and lime peel. All three beers are then blended together in the fermentation tank to create this German hybrid.  4.9% ABV  Ratebeer 92pts!

The Hop Concept Dank & Sticky IPA
Our inaugural release boasts aromas of citrus, and dank, resinous pine. As the flavor opens, huge notes of stonefruit and dank resin give way to a juicy malt backbone and drying hop bitterness on the finish. 8.5% ABV Ratebeer 98pts!

Lost Abbey Deliverance
A blend of bourbon barrel-aged Serpent’s Stout and brandy barrel-aged Angels Share, Deliverance is the epic battle being waged between heaven and hell for the souls of mortal men… and your enjoyment in a glass. 12.5% ABV Ratebeer 100pts!

Lost Abbey Lost & Found
Modeled after the great Trappist and Monastic beers that inspired the founding of our brewery. A richly deep garnet colored ale created from a blend of Domestic and imported malts. As part of our commitment to interesting brewing endeavors, Chef Vince created a special raisin puree for this beer. Malts, raisins and a fantastic yeast strain working in harmony produce a beer of amazing complexity and depth.  8% ABV  Ratebeer 96pts!

Lost Abbey Serpent's Stout
The history of the bible and religion is indeed the struggle of good vs. evil. Our Serpent’s Stout recognizes the evil of the dark side that we all struggle with.This is a massively thick and opaque beer that begs the saints to join the sinners in their path to a black existence.  11% ABV  Ratebeer 100pts!

Weyerbacher Sunday Morning Stout
Sunday Morning Stout is an American Imperial Stout aged in bourbon barrels. The result? A beautiful ebony pour with a large, creamy, off-white head that lasts and lasts. The aromas of roasted coffee and bourbon awaken your senses while their flavors blend with hints of chocolate, roasted malt, vanilla and caramel.  12.7% ABV Ratebeer 99pts!

Lagunitas Cappuccino Stout
Brewed with boatloads of roasted coffee in each batch for that extra Krunk… this Mondo Coffee Stout will leave you wondering whether you're coming or going. Available in 22oz bombers mid-winter…ish.  9.1% ABV.  Ratebeer 95pts!

Also, our Beer Manager in Lawrenceville wanted to pass on that Nugget Nectar cans are back in stock!
