May 11th 2009

Slide 1 Hey Now! Hope all is well. Below is our newly updated beer list for the week. On tap we now have Blue Point Summer Ale, a great session beer that males for easy drinking! Made locally, this is a great example of an American Blonde Ale. Bottle wise, a new stand out to the list is a Belgian heavy hitter, Triple KarmelietSlide 1. This is a perfect Belgian Triple; smooth and complex with notes of fruit and caramel but without the alcohol aftertaste that 8%+ abv beers typically posess. A great beer to sip and enjoy! Now on to this weeks list...

Blue Point Summer Ale (Patchogue): A summer tradition at Press195! Various malts combine to produce a delicious golden taste that is light and thirst quenching with a hint of citrus. 6% abv
Keegan’s Mother’s Milk (Kingston, NY): From our good friend Tom Keegan comes this fantastic beer. As the name implies, this is a dark and creamy milk stout. Hints of oatmeal, chocolate and of course milk, give this stout a remarkably smooth finish. 5.5% abv
Stone Levitation (CA): A truly fantastic session ale! This deep amber ale has rich & roasted malt flavors, a big hoppy character, citrus overtones (courtesy of the hops and special brewers yeast) and modest alcohol. 4.4% abv
