HAPPY GNOME MEAD-PAIRING DINNER - THU, 7/31 6PM
The Happy Gnome is hosting a very special six-course gourmet dinner this
Thursday, July 31st. Every course will be paired with one of six different
White Winter Mead, plus a seventh mead while people are arriving. Gnome
Chef Matthew Hinman is famous for his beer pairing dinners, but this is his
first dinner of all mead pairings.
Special Guests include:
* Ken Schramm, from Detroit, MI - author of "The Compleat Meadmaker"
* Jon Hamilton, from Iron River, WI - Meadmaker at White Winter
* Steve Piatz, 2008 AHA National Meadmaker of the Year
It should be a great learning opportunity for all those who appreciate
mead, and who appreciate fine food! This is the kick-off for Twin Cities
"Mead Week" activities.
RSVP to the Happy Gnome: 651-287-2018

Subject: More new beer at The Firkins.
Craft Beer Drinkers and Friends,
Another shipment of beer arrived on Friday with some new beers amongst it.
Here's a quick list of the more interesting things. Last week when I sent a
list like this almost everything mentioned sold out in the next two days. If
you want to try some of these rarer beers you'll have to get here quickly!
Scaldis Prestige.
Belgian Amber Ale aged in Oak for Six months. 13% ABV - four bottles only.
http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/604/21197
Bieres 23 - French Country Amber Ale.
http://www.bieres-23.com/beers.html
Dulle Teve - Tripel
http://www.ratebeer.com/beer/de-dolle-dulle-teve-10%C2%BA-mad-bitch/6875/
Haand Bryggeriet - Dark Force
A wheat stout, 9% ABV
http://www.haandbryggeriet.net/Regulars.html
I was able to get a few cases at a slightly discounted price so I have 750ml
bottles of Pater Lieven Tripel at $6.99 and 750ml bottles of Zinnebir Xmas
Ale also at $6.99 per bottle.
Due to popular demand I now stock Fullers ESB and London Pride, both are on
the shelves right now. I also got in some Sheaf Stout for my Aussie mates!
Cheers!

Isn't that what a pot luck is? It looks like you want to set up a pot plan! :)
