Its that time again…
With a new week we find ourselves amidst new friends - the kind typically found in little brown bottles. Three nice chaps to hang out with: a Wise Old Aussie (Coopers Extra Strong Vintage Ale), a West Coast Mountain Man (Deschutes Black Butte Porter), and a Freak (Coney Island Lager). All three are welcomed guests and a pleasure around the dinner table. Per usual, they are not here to stay, but if you're fortunate you might cross their path.
shortly after this photo we all played Twister.
Thank you, and you, and YOU.
Many thanks to all those who came out to our customer appreciation this past Wednesday to enjoy the 50% off on our feature beer list. It was good fun and very nice to see all your smiling faces. We are going to do similar events in the future, so keep your eyes peeled either here or on the ol' F-book page. Thanks again.
Thanks!

New Beers for August…
Oh man, it is a scorcher on the ol' Acreage today...
Yesterday I overheard someone on the street expressing their disdain for the overly hot weather we've been having. Sitting out front of the Acreage now I feel as though its all a matter of perspective. So to help all of us stay level-headed in the heat we brought in 3 new beers for August that I am really excited about (but I chose them, so....): Pelican Brewery's India Pelican Ale, the Pinkus Organic Munster Alt Beer, and Jolly Pumpkin's Oro De Calabaza.
All three pair well with insane heat: big refreshing hops with the Pelican, the Munster Alt is smooth drinking with hints of banana and bready yeasts, and the Oro De Calabaza... what can I say? This is easily the most interesting beer I have had in months. Those with savvy and/or curiosity would do well to take note of this odyssey (limited to 20 bottles).
Check out the Oro De Calabaza here. http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/9897/18975

Wow. Too bad we can't offer this bizarre service at Six Acres.
Beer For Kids – How Fun!
Oh how we love the Japanese for so many reasons. Who else would have invented the beer vending machine - cold beer in any size, anytime. Not wanting the kids to be left out from all the drinking festivities, we present an ad for a beer like drink for the little ones. How fun. Kampai!
Beer Facts #1 – Czechs are Champions
The Czechs consume the most beer per capita in the world. Each and every person - babies and 100 year olds included - consumes 314 pints a year. Nice job guys. Second place goes to Ireland and third to Germany. Sadly, us Canadians are in 19th place with 136 pints a year. Luxembourg is in 10th place. Seriously, Luxembourg, we can't even take out Luxembourg? Surely we can do better than 19th place Canada.

Hooray Beer!
We really do love Jamaican music. Such a small little island and so many incredible songs with huge influence on music around the world. Helping to fuel that music (along with a dose of the green) has been Red Stripe beer. This is a great ad that incorporates a bit of all that with the sweet dorky white guy tourist thrown in.
