Event - American Craft Beer Week -May 13-19, 2013




The third week in May, marks American Craft Beer Week, the Brewers Association is celebrating ACBW around the country to recognize and celebrate small and independent brewers. There will be a hand-full of NJ beer events celebrating craft beer.


The Shannon Rose Irish Pub will be celebrating with  a Tap Takeover from Sam Adams allow drinkers to sample 8 different Sam Adams limited release draft beers under one roof.
These selections of Sam Adams beers will only be available on draft at the three Shannon Rose locations in New Jersey for just four days, they include:
Double Agent IPL – the best of both worlds, hoppy like an IPA and leaner and cleaner like a lager.
Third Voyage Double IPA – this is a true Double American style IPA with 85 IBU’s of Cascade and Simcoe hops and a nice malty backbone of 8% ABV.
New World Tripel – a great example of a Belgian Tripel; 9% ABV complexity with vanilla, tropical fruit, and coconut notes, all tied in with a Belgian yeast complexity and a touch of tartness.
Chocolate Bock – are dark and rich with sweet cocoa notes and a touch of vanilla.
Grumpy Monk – is a medium weight Belgian Style IPA, with American hops complexity and huge Belgian yeast character.
Blueberry Lager – is a refreshing beer with natural and slightly tart blueberry flavors in a soft, Kellerbier-style lager.
Porch Rocker – is a light summer beer Radler-style, blending the flavors of German lemonade with a Helles Lager.
Backwoods Porter – a maple, pecan, bourbon porter; includes an earthy balance of roasted malts, maple, pecans, and bourbon oak.

I can't wait to try them all, they all sound great. Sam Adams craft beers have always been amongst my favorites. My favorites being Summer Ale, Octoberfest, and Cherry Wheat.
