A lot’s being made of the fact that Sarah Palin, when asked about it by ABC’s Charlie Gibson, literally doesn’t know what the Bush Doctrine is. But the Alaska Governor isn’t a one-trick pony.

We are excited to tell you that due to popular demand we have greatly increased our beer offerings at the wine bar (still a lot of wine, of course). We now have 25 bottles available. Some of the highlights include:

– Dogfish Head 90 Minute and 120 Minute IPAs. The 120 Minute is especially exciting because this beer is not very easy to get.

– Southern Tier Creme Brulee Stout. Do you love Chocolate Stouts? You should definitely try this. A True dessert beer.

– Affligem Tripel. A must for Belgian Ale lovers. This beer won the gold medal for its style at the 2008 World Beer Cup.

So now you beer lovers don’t have to pick from just a few bottles, we have something for everybody here.

Also, a couple of new seasonals are in for retail. First is Bell’s Octoberfest. I took a pass on this one last year, but was told that this year was much better. They were right! This beer is better than any of the German Oktoberfest imports I’ve had. It really tastes like Autumn.

Second is a very interesting beer. Last year I had a lot of people ask me if I had any Holloween-themed beers and I really didn’t. This year we have the Coney Island Freaktoberfest. It pours a deep red color and has a big malty flavor with a nice dose of hops as well. This one will be perfect for your Halloween party. Just look at that logo! Plus the alcohol content is 6.66%.

It’s hop harvest season and many breweries are gearing up to release their fresh-hopped ales. As you eagerly await these seasonal releases, here are a few interesting hop-related links that you might enjoy.First up, The Wall Street Journal recently ran…
