This week in the Tasting Room we have the following beers available on draft:
- Christmas Mint Brown Ale $7 per 32 oz fill / $20 per 128oz fill (limited quantity)
- Oatmeal Raisin Cookie Ale $7 per 32 oz fill / $20 per 128 oz fill
- Dragonfruit-aged Winter Warmer $10 per 32 oz fill (32 oz fills only/limited quantity)
Warmer Winter, Warmer Ale our American hopped take on an English Old Ale has steadily been trickling out. It should be in the South Florida area by now (p.s. we are FINALLY distributing in South Florida and draft should follow in a week or two). The Tampa area should see bottles in retail accounts late this week or early next. Orlando and central Florida up north to Jacksonville should already have bottles in retail accounts. Philadelphia also got several cases which should be hitting soon. New York's allotment will ship out on Friday.
The week of Christmas we will be closed on Thursday the 24th and Friday the 25th but to make up for this we will be open Monday the 21st thru Wednesday the 23rd for last minute beer-gift shoppers!
In my previous post I wrote that the Creative Loafing's Private Cigar City Brewing Tasting Auction ended December 16th. That is incorrect. It ends December 11th! All proceeds of the auction go to The Children's Home. See posts 170 and 171 for more details.
Cigar City Brewing is also participating in an Angel Tree program being held for Hope Children's Home. Hope cares for discarded, abused, abandoned or orphaned children and come Christmas time they have a lot of gifts to get for a lot of needy kids and a small budget to do it with. So individuals and businesses are encouraged to take a name from the Angel Tree and play Santa by fulfilling the wishlist of one needy kid. Many of the items on the children's wish lists are often heartachningly basic things. Most of the commonly requested items average kids take for granted are coveted gifts for these children.
Cigar City Brewing is playing Santa to Kyleigh E. In addition to procuring some presents for Kyleigh, until the 15th of December CCB will be offering free growler refills for anyone who brings in an item from Keyleigh's list or any toy or article of clothing appropriate for a girl of Kyleigh's age. Kyleigh is 8 years old and her favorite colors are blue and pink. Kyleigh's shirt and skirt size is a 7, shoe size is a 1 and her underwear size is a 6-8. Kyleigh's wish list is as follows:
- 1. Beall's Gift Card
- 2. Zip-up sweater
- 3. Tank Tops
- 4. Reeces Ice Cream Bars (melting issues aside if Kyleigh wants them we'll get them to her if I have to pack them in dry ice)
- 5. Barbie Nutcracker Movie
Help make 8 year old Kyleigh's Christmas a memorable one!
Cheers,
Joey Redner
