Salty Nut Brewery


As all breweries seem to experience while starting up it has been a long hard road for everything to finally come together for Salty Nut Brewery to release their first beers. However this Wednesday, June 12th, you will be able to try Imperial Mustache Red for the first time. Their first beer will be pouring starting at 5pm at The Nook and the guys should be around for you to meet as well.

Homebrew Legal in Alabama


It has been a long hard road for the Right to Brew group but homebrewing is now legal in Alabama. The Governor of Alabama signed the bill this evening that legalizes brewing beer at home in Alabama. Mississippi also passed legislation this year to legalize homebrewing which now makes it legal in all 50 states.

Yellowhammer Spring Releases


Yellowhammer's latest seasonal release should be hitting the taps soon. Rebellion Red Ale is described as:
Rebellion red ale, it's a hybrid style, drinks smooth like a lager, brewed with German ale yeast and slight hoppy bitterness.
Also out right now from Yellowhammer is their special release, 1819 Dubbel:
Brewed with dark Belgian Candi Syrup and aged for months, this beer comes out malty and rich, with hints of dark fruits.  
Look for bombers of 1819 on the shelves soon.
