New beers this week, just in time for our Domestic Microbrew tasting tomorrow night, Jan 20th

Lazy Magnolia Southern Pecan

From:Kiln, Mississippi

About: Southern Pecan Nut Brown Ale is the first beer in the world made with whole roasted pecans. The pecans are used just like grain and provide a nutty characteristic and a delightful depth to the flavor profile. This beer is very lightly hopped to allow the malty, caramel, and nutty flavors shine through. The color is dark mahogany.

Southern Tier Choklat – RE-RELEASED! LIMITED QUANTITIES

From: Lakewood, New York

About: The Popol Vuh, the sacred book of the Maya, unfolds a complex web of mystery around a beverage known as xocoatl (ch-co-atle). At Southern Tier, we’re not surprised that hieroglyphs of the ancient Maya depict chocolate being poured for rulers and gods. Brewed with bittersweet Belgian chocolate this is the perfect dessert beer.
