UPCOMING PACKAGED RELEASES
Releasing Friday, 7/23
Animal Cookies // IPA // Brewed for the hop-loving animal inside of you, this can is packed with sticky, pungent hops. Unleash a swirling circus of pineapple, tangerine, mango, pine, and dank herb hop character, balanced with pale malt and malted oats for a soft mouthfeel and gentle finish. // 7% ABV // $4.00/16oz Can, plus deposit
Alt // Altbier // This northern German-style Altbier leads out with a beautiful malt profile featuring caramel, grain, and bread notes that quickly give way to a crisp and refershing finish. Cool fermentation with a German ale yeast lends this altbier fruity and gently rustic complexity, while extended cold conditioning—much like what you find in a traditionally brewed lager—rounds it out with a smooth, refined, finish. // 5% ABV
GENERAL UPDATES
PACKAGE VS. DRAFT PRICING STRUCTURE
A few guests have recently asked some servers why beer is priced lower in a can vs when it is on draft. The answer to that comes down to the location it is consumed. When pricing a draft beer, the price includes the cost of the atmosphere, server delivering it, glassware (and washing) as well as the table space where the guest is enjoying the beer. When pricing a can of beer, it is planned that the guest takes the beer home to drink where those associated costs (glassware, atmosphere, etc) are provided by the guest in other forms.
PUB UPDATES
Just a reminder to throw your hat in the ring for a Lead Server position by Friday, July 23rd if you are interested! A description of the duties and expectations was sent out last week by Goody, so please feel free to check that out and let her know if you have any questions!
Starting Friday, July 23rd we will be topping the Fruit Vodka Lemonade with soda water rather than Sprite to keep the cocktail consistent across both the Pub and Tap Room.
A new host stand map has been created to replace the old time limit chart. Please use this new map to track which tables are sat (an X or check mark works well) and which tables are dirty (scribbling out the dirty table with an expo marker). There is also space to note which servers are working and what their sections are and enough space on each table to write the name of the party that will be seated there (if that helps for flow of communication). If you have any feedback or suggestions, please feel free to pass them along to a manager!
TAP ROOM UPDATES
We’ll be phasing out Sprite at the Tap Room since we don’t have a soda gun, so we’ll be 86’ing Pear Flower cocktails and then using soda for the Fruit Vodka lemonades.
Use our glass pitchers for folks wanting water - if people want a pitcher of beer, still use the plastic pitchers as they are actually 64oz!
