The Upcoming Legendary Pint Night Spectacular!
This Friday, February 15: brace yourselves...
Schlafly's AIPA is coming!
If you loved Bell's Hopslam, then it would be criminal to miss this AIPA. Mike claims Schlafly's AIPA to even be superior to Hopslam.
Further updates regarding this Pint Night are to come, so stay tuned.

Weekly Beer Reviews
This section is a bit different this week, as we had a week in which not much went off tap. Instead, Tyler and I chose our favorite beer on tap, and we reviewed them. These two will also be available on Friday for $2 off the growler. Doesn't get much better than that, eh?
Sierra Nevada Ruthless Rye IPA
This Spring Seasonal from Sierra Nevada is a lovely IPA for the changing weather and Tyler's favorite beer on tap. The nose is full of pine with softer aroma's of raspberries, onions, banana's, and bran. The taste is pleasantly bitter with a strong pine flavor. Lighter flavrs of black pepper, parsley, and gouda shine through. The finish is quick and toasty with a subtle rye flavor. If you are a fan of bitter, piney IPA's with a smooth finish, this will be up your alley.
Mike and Tyler's Rating - 9/10
Flying Dog Gonzo Imperial Porter
This Imperial Porter has more in common with a Black IPA than a Porter, and happens to be my favorite on tap. The nose is diverse with aroma's of dark chocolate, grapes, citrus, cream, and licorice. The taste is bitter throughout with flavors of fresh lemons and vanilla. The finish ramps up the bitterness and has strong flavors of charcoal, baking chocolate, and roast coffee. I certainly consider this to be Flying Dog's best beer available in Kentucky.
Mike and Tyler's Rating - 8.75/10

Ommegang's Limited Edition "A Game of Thrones" Brews
Ommegang is releasing limited edition craft beers based off of the hit show "A Game of Thrones." Awesome, aptly-named beers like the Iron Throne blond ale and the Art of Darkness Ale are to be featured in the collection. Mike and I are big fans of the series, so I know we will do what we can to get these beers in stock.
In case there are any of you who aren't hip to the amazing HBO show, "A Game of Thrones" (based off of George R. R. Martin's "A Song of Ice and Fire" series), it is a superb high-fantasy show like no other. While it has some tropes that most fantasy fiction shares (kings, castles, dragons, etc.), it is notably more adult-oriented, grimly realistic, complex in storyline, and alarmingly brutal than anything else in the genre. If you haven't yet checked it out, do so! Be one of the cool kids!

The Pleasures of Pint Night
I told myself I would only post after Pint Nights when the night had been truly exceptional, however it looks like such a post will become a habit, for it was another fabulous Pint Night! We had a great crowd that stayed with us throughout the evening and into the night.
I want to thank everyone it particular for purchasing glassware, because we sold more than perhaps we ever have. Luckily we had lots of new glassware in stock. Sometimes it is difficult to get a hold of new pint glasses, and I know many of you have thought about your decreasing shelf space more than once; but your patronage and dedication to the glassware helps make our Pint Nights a great success and allows us to keep getting both new glasses and great beer in -- and the strong sale of glasses also looks great to our superiors.
So thanks again and I hope everyone will continue to check out the blog (consider putting us in your favorites tab) while telling everyone else about it. Also don't forget to come next week for another great Pint Night.
Toodles!
