"The 16th Anniversary Sale will feature the release of a new batch of ... we'll announce what closer to the big day. Come join me and my family to celebrate another year. I will have shirts, hats, and some vintage Beers available as well.
"Looking forward to seeing everyone, its great that there is so much interest. This will be my 16th anniversary and I think I have some nice Beers for this years sale. I will have new bottlings of Cherry Adam, Blue Dot, Fred from the Wood, Doggie Claws and a new release, Michael. Michael is a Flanders Red, made in memory of Michael Jackson. The Beer was Brewed in January of 2007, and aged in American oak and Sherry barrels since then. It is just over 6% alcohol, made with Organic Pilsner, Vienna and Munich malts and fermented with a varriety of yeast and bacteria. I will also have some older batches of Claws available and larger format bottles of some Beers"
"Lately you’ve probably heard a lot about the late Michael Jackson, pop star. But, a new tribute brew by Portland’s Hair of the Dog Brewery slated for release on November 14, 2009 will honor the late beer scribe of the same name. Hair of the Dog brewer and founder Alan Sprints has concocted a special barrel-aged and bottle conditioned Flemish Red Ale simply named “Michael” to pay tribute to the man who Sprints calls “the most influential beer writer and critic who ever lived.” We must admit, those are hard words with which to argue.
Michael will be unveiled this Saturday at the Hair of the Dog Brewery’s annual November dock sale. Sales start at 10 a.m. and as usual, there are expected to be droves of beer geeks awaiting their turn at the Sprints’ cellarable favorites. Specialty brews sought after at the sale include Cherry Adam from the Wood, Fred from the Wood, Doggie Claws Barleywine, and the Matt, a bourbon and apple Eau de Vie barrel-aged sour originally designed to commemorate Bottleworks’ (Seattle) tenth anniversary. Expect long lines and good times once again this year."
