In Which nOrMaL

Howdy, friends! It's been a completely normal week around here, so we figured we'd go right on ahead and push things even further toward "normal" (which, paradoxically, feels pretty dang weird) and anyway here's a bunch of completely normal things that are happening!

One step closer!

First on up, we're bringin' back our old hours! As much as we used to like to grouse about how everything was changing every two weeks back when we were receiving broad, sweeping government mandates all the damn time, we still felt like we'd keep up our "back to normal" momentum and expand our hours back to what they used to be, so as of right now* we're open until 11 Monday thru Saturday!

So Pride, much tank

And speaking of normalcy, we've got Pride tanks back in stock! We had actually tried pretty hard to get them back in stock a bunch earlier (y'know, for the release of our Pride beer or at least for the beginning of June), but it turns out that the massive problems affecting the global shipping industry (among other things) don't just go away as soon as the governor lifts a few covid policies. Who knew? But hey, Pride tanks!

Anyway, moving right along to more completely normal things, this Friday we're releasing a new beer in cans! It's a hoppy saison named Lil' Goblin and it features a couple of our favorite** hops (Triple Pearl and Grüngeist) and it's tasty as heck and you should come drink some!

Next week's blog will feature a painful shotgun session of this beverage

And! Lastly but far from leastly (and also completely normal), next Monday (June 21st) is the release of The Great Equalizer! If you ain't "in the know" on this one yet, the podcast Vox & Hops (which focuses on heavy metal and beer, both of which are near and dear to our hearts) is doing a bigass collab where 20+ breweries get paired up with metal bands and we all release beers in the same week (and also there's hot sauce involved? Somehow?) and we got paired up with the new-to-us death metal band Fuming Mouth (who you should absolutely listen to BTW) and (at their suggestion, we might add) we made a badass smoked brown ale and it's gonna be in cans soon and you should come grab some!

* And by "right now" I mean "Monday, which was at least two days ago"
** Truth be told, we have a lot of favorite hops.
