Beachwood Sour Beer Week

So, we finally got our act together and here’s what’s going on:
The beer list is posted on our website, along with a calendar, but here are the details. We’ve accumulated approximately 50 kegs for the week.
In addition to the sour beers, we will still offer a number of “normal” beers. This is so your significant other has no excuse not to come along.

August 25th:
Beachwood sour fest will kick off at 11:30 with 18 sour beers on tap. At 6pm we’ll be adding 4 more sour beers from the Bruery. The entire Bruery crew will be there to hang out, talk shop and drink beer. We’ll also be serving 4 special appetizers to pair with each beer.

August 26th:
Starting at 6pm we’ll be featuring New Belgium sour beers. Eric Salazar will be on hand to hang out and enjoy the festivities.

August 27th:
Starting at 6pm we’ll be featuring Lost Abbey sour beers. A lot of the guys from the brewery will be here. Enough said.

August 28th-August 30th:
The rest of the week we’ll be tapping new sour beers as others run out.
Can’t make any of the nights above? Fear not, everyday something new and exciting will be tapped!!! Check the HopCam for up to the minute keg changes. We will also be twittering when new beers come on.

For all of those who have been here before, and those who have not, we are an incredibly small restaurant. Because of this, we’ve implemented a few things that we think will help us accommodate everybody and keep our service levels high.

Beachwood Sour Week Guiding Principles:
1. Please be considerate, you waited a long time, somebody else is also waiting. We will be enforcing a 2 hour time limit in the dining room from 5pm-9pm.

2. Unfortunately, due to the rarity of all these beers we will not be offering tasters. We are however, selling these beers in 5.5oz and 10oz pours.

3. We know our limitations, and despite the genetic modifications we’ve attempted on our bartenders, they still only in fact have two hands. That being said, in order to provide prompt and courteous service we are limiting each persons order to three 5.5ozers or two 10ozers at any one time. So when you’re done with your round, flag us down, we’ll get you your next one.

4. Sorry no Happy Hour beers this week.

5. We know we’re a small place, you know we’re a small place, so please bare with us and keep this in mind as we all celebrate the joys of sour beer.

Cheers,
Gabe, Kyle, Justin and Lena
