Internal Brewsletter - June 30, 2021
TUNES, BREWS, & BBQ IS BACK!
Starting next Wednesday, July 7th, we’ll be bringing back Tunes, Brews, & BBQ!
The structure will be a bit different this year - we’re going to have each band play two “sets” per night so we can accommodate two rounds of table reservations. The first set will run from 5:30-6:30, and the second set will run from 7:30-8:30. This allows us to give more customers the chance to enjoy the music, and the band gets a bit of a break in between sets!
Folks can start making reservations the Sunday of the week of the music, and it will be on a first come, first served basis for the table seatings. We will be allowing people to sit on the grass if they come and didn’t make a reservation.
We are also not putting up the stage this year where it historically has been (behind the firepit) - instead they will be playing in the northwest corner of the grass paver area!
Check out the Facebook event here, and if you have any questions feel free to reach out to Chris or another Tap Room manager!
UPCOMING PACKAGED RELEASES
Releasing Friday, 7/2
Squirrel Stash // Brown Ale // A roasty, nutty English-style Brown Ale brewed with British Maris Otter and a host of specialty malts, producing a silky mouthfeel and a malt profile full of toasted nuts, baker’s chocolate, and roasty malts. A delightfully dry finish brightens up this complex, malty beer. // 4.5% ABV // $2.75/16oz Can, plus deposit
Galaxy. Galaxy? Galaxy! // IPA // Brewed with 100% Galaxy hops, out-of-this-world hop notes of passionfruit, lemon zest, and peach underscore a vibrant aroma reminiscent of a bowl of tropical fruit. A gentle backing of flaked barley and oats supports this single-hop exploration with a soft mouthfeel and a sweet finish. Galaxy? This IPA is nothing but GALAXY! // 7% ABV // $4.50/16oz Can, plus deposit
Wandelpad // Belgian-Style Blonde Ale // Inspired by one of the finest Trappist beers we sampled in our travels through Belgium, this blonde ale was brewed with imported Belgian malts, Oregon-grown hops, and Trappist yeast. Crisp, complex, and refreshing, the result is a classic Belgian balance of fruity esters, rustic grist character, and a zesty hop finish. // 6.5% ABV // $2.75/16oz Can, plus deposit
GENERAL UPDATES
Here is just a quick reminder/blurb on how we are currently doing keg and corni sales:
People can order at block15.com/kegs (the main landing page has all the relevant information/instructions on it).
The store stays open all the time, however inventory gets updated on Mondays.
They have until 5pm on Thursday to place their order, and pick-up is on Fridays between 12pm and 9pm. If they miss that 5pm deadline, their order will be process for the next week.
If they have a corni, they will need to drop that off by 9pm on Thursday in order for us to fill it on that Friday morning.

PUB UPDATES
The Pub is getting another new cocktail! This Friday we are adding the Red Berry Painkiller to the line-up at the Pub! This cocktail, which was a bestseller last summer, features a blend of gold rums infused with red berry tea, house made coconut cream, pineapple and orange juice, garnished with fresh grated nutmeg. *This will be at the Tap Room eventually as well!*
TAP ROOM UPDATES
With our new cocktails, we have also decided to bring out not only fruit vodka lemonades, but also additional fruit lemonades! So, we’ll have strawberry fruit vodka lemonades available all the time, and then whatever seasonal flavor is around as well! It’ll be nice to have another non-alcoholic option for folks, and everyone loves cocktails!
