Heeyyy we want some brew today!
Allagash Cuvee d'Industrial (Clement only!) 375ml bottles
Select American and French oak barrel ales ranging in age from one to five years are put in the cuvee for a golden ale with complexity. Coovee. Cooooooveeeeeee
Ahoy matey! With a weighty ABV of 11.4%, this English-inspired and oak brandy barrel aged ale will test your sea legs on dry land. Was that a gassy 'hiss' when I popped the top, or the siren's song?
The Coma comes along with a hoppy burst of American Cascade, Chinook, CTZ, and Citra hops. The Prieta flips the script and tickles our tastes with all Southern Hemisphere hops: Nelson Sauvin, Pacific Jade, and Moteuka from New Zealand. Helga from Australia. The first is citrusy and piney, the latter bright and fruity.
Pine Street Menagerie Saison sixpack 12oz cans
/məˈnajərē,məˈnaZHərē/
noun
a strange or diverse collection of things
...a unique hybrid beer: a Bohemian wheat ale due to floor malted wheat, a Northwest pale ale from the Falconers Flight hop blend, and a Belgian farmhouse ale from saison yeast.

New arrivals from Anchorage Brewing, Grimms, and some key restocks!
The Lost Abbey Framboise de Amorosa
Lost Abbey takes their Lost & Found Belgian-style ale and ages it in oak over multiple additions of raspberries. The result; love incarnate.
Going going GULP: a high concept gose from the mighty minds at Grimm. German aroma hops, orange zest, and American white oak conditioning.
Anchorage Brewing Love Buzz
Rose hips, peppercorns, and fresh orange peels to spice the brew, then dry-hopped with Citra in French Oak Pinot Noir barrels... "would you believe me when I tell you, you are the king of my dreams"
Anchorage Brewing Bitter Monk
Our man up above does his imperial tribute to the almighty Orval Trappist ale.
Kulmbacher EKU 28
World classic superbock back in stock. Can't tell if there is a renewed interest in these beers or simply nobody else carries them, but we got some all the same.

HOTTER than July! Err...
NEW ARRIVALS for this week at BOTH stores:
2014 Project! A wheat ale aged over whole strawberries and vanilla beans in oak wine barrels for up to twelve months.
The triumphant return of the sought-after peach sour from our friends in Fort Collins.
Phenomenal yet totally overlooked Belgian Quadrupel brewed by "The Professor" at DeProefbrouwerij and aged in barrels selected from the smoke-driven Islay single malt distillery Ardbeg.
From Lagunitas: These words are the voice of the beer you are about to drink, they are an attempt to be understood. The beer beneath is more than just words. It is a promise. You are the promised. Revel in your times...
...from Healthy Spirits: don't call it an Imperial India-style White Pale. But you could.
CHRISTMAS IN JULY!
These cool, foggy evenings definitely warrant a winter warmer if you're so inclined. Selected holiday ales are 15% OFF through the month of July. While supplies last!

Firestone Walker Stickee Monkee 2015
Since 2006 Firestone Walker's barrel aging project has turned out some of America's most sought after beer releases in their Anniversary Ale series. These ales are a blend of several unique components, beers of varying styles aged in spirits vessels. Over the years, our friends in Paso Robles have treated us to some of these component ales as draft only and, to our delight here at Healthy Spirits, limited bottle runs.
Stickee Monkee lives up to its name by spiking a full on Belgian-style dark strong ale with Mexican Turbinado brown sugar and aging in oaken spirits vessels to impart more flavor. A rich molasses sweetness gives way to toasted coconut, and an earthy leather finish.
22oz bottle in a handsome display box will set you back $18.99 plus tax and CRV. One (1) bottle per person per diem limit, please, and phone reservations for club members only.
