EAST BOUND AND DOWN!

For immediate release 9-01-08

The GATE Presents:
The East Bound and Down Keg and Bottle Series!




Keg One:
FOUNDER’S CENTENNIAL IPA!
My buddy Curtis and I sampled this baby at Monk’s in Philly a few nights back. I
found it to be one of the most perfectly balanced IPA’s I have ever had the pleasure
of experiencing. This one’s gonna go real quick so git on down here and have a pint!

Centennial IPA
Selected as a benchmark for the Beer Judge Certification Program used in all American based beer judgings. Centennial IPA has quickly become the IPA of choice. Pour yourself a pint of this complex flavorful ale and bask in the frothy head’s floral bouquet. Relish the immense citrus accents, achieved by the abundance of dry hopping. This ale’s sweet, malty undertones balance the hop character with a finish that never turns too bitter. Specs: 7.2 % ABV46 IBU’s Color: Amber Unfiltered Cellar: 6 months Availability: Year round Serving temperature: 42 f Glassware: American pint

Also on draught now:
Jenlain Ambree
Green Flash! Summer Saison and Le Freak

“East bound and down, loaded up and truckin',
We gonna do what they say can't be done.
We've got a long way to go and a short time to get there.
I'm east bound, just watch ol' "Bandit" run.

Keep your foot hard on the pedal. Son, never mind them brakes.
Let it all hang out 'cause we got a run to make.
The boys are thirsty in Brooklyn and there's beer in Texarkana.
And we'll bring it back no matter what it takes.”


COMING SOON:

ALE FEST!!!

SULLY'S TAP ROOM AT THE GATE!

This WEDNESDAY night

ALE FEST continues with

SULLY'S TAP ROOM.

Beer Writer and Homebrewer Paul Sullivan picks the list, paying tribute to brewing's Old World traditions:

First A Word or Two from Paul...

As a long time regular at the Gate I’m happy and honored to be asked to host this event. What I’m hoping to do with this night is to present lagers as the original craft beer. Before the name was corrupted by mass-market breweries into something that to most people means bland, tasteless swill, lagers were brewed seasonally in small batches with the highest quality ingredients, and given plenty of time to mature and fully develop. This event will have a full range of quality lager beers; from Helles and Pilsner, which are golden beers with flavor, to amber and darker beers like Dunkel, Bock, and Dopplebock, and even a couple of seasonally appropriate Maibocks, which are golden Bock beers traditionally tapped on the first of May. We’ve tracked down some great, rare beers for this event. The good people at the Gate have even added to my lager list some great German Ales like Schneider Eisbock and Brooklyner Schneider Hopfen Weiss that they've been saving for such a special occasion. We’ve tracked down some great, rare beers for this event. Don’t miss it!

The Pour:

Spaten Mai Bock
Hofbrau Strong Bock
Allgauer Bubles
Allgauer Dunkels
Aktien Jubilaum Pils
Ayinger Celebrator
Einbecker Mai -ur Bock
Victory Prima Pils
Thomas Hooker Lager
Sly Fox Dunkel
