Short Pours - 12/17/13
McCoy's Ursa Major
2013 Release
Tonight at 4:00pm
McCoy's will be tapping this year's Ursa Major Imperial Stout as well as kegs
from 2012 and 2011 to sample side by side. This year's Ursa Major was aged in
Dark Horse Distillery bourbon and rye barrels. Pours will be $10 and come with
a commemorative glass. Bottles will also be available for $14 - but they're
sure to go fast since they'll br holding such a historically fantastic beer.
Heard From the Hop
Vine
Rumor has traveled
around town that the drought may be coming to an end. There have been reports
of the Oskar Blues team visiting Kansas City and Lawrence last week -
potentially scoping out the market. It might not be anything, or it may mean
that in a few months time we could be seeing their cans on shelves in Kansas
and/or Missouri. We'll let you know if we hear anything.
