We know it doesn't feel like it yet, but spring is on
its way. That means its time to think about hops in your garden, wine

Rhizome Season is Here!
Time to grow some hops
Spring is
here, sorta. But that means that Hops Direct will
be taking orders in the month of March for hop rhizomes. Be sure to
order from them! Rhizomes are a cutting of the root of a hop plant
that can be planted to create a hop identical to the original plant.
These hop "starts" should be planted after the last frost
and can grow 25 ft. in a season. Often the first few years after
planting will yeild few hops but by the 3rd year you
should be able to expect a decent harvest (much like grapes).
These
homegrown hops aren't only a beautiful addition to any home garden.
They can be used down here at the brewery every year to make
beer that has a flavor unique to fresh hopped beer.

We Still Have
Few Limited Wines
Our limited wine season is in full swing here
at Gallaghers' and you don't want to miss out. This years wines are
a mix of old favorites and a few adventurious new ones.
The
February limited (California Petite Sirah/Zinfandel) is in and
we should be receiving the March limited (German Traminer Spatlese)
soon. We still have extras of all the limited edition kits, but the
ones from January and February are going fast.
You can
find more information about our limited wines here, and if you
have any questions please feel free to give us a ring at the
brewery.

Wheat
Madness
and why
not!?
Recently at Gallaghers' we have seen a resurgence in
a particular style of beer. Wheat beer is a style that
traditionally is a little bit lighter and more mellow in
flavor, even sometimes sweet.
Wheat beers can often be brewed with
adjuncts such as orange peel, corriander, candied
sugar,and variety of other spices that provide the
sweet, bitter, and even spicy flavors.
We have been experimenting lately with recipies such
as The Monk(8.5%!) and To the Cloud(with honey). The
results have been positive with new and interesting
flavors.
The long of the short is that this dreary weather
will end eventially end we will all need a nice and smooth wheat
beer to drink this summer. So come down to Gallaghers' and brew
your very own batch of wheat beer.

10 years
and a new shirt
There is only ONE WAY to get your hands of this
wonderful new fashion statement. If you are already a Mug Club
member and didn't attend the Mug Club party last week, then
shame on you. Last Saturday we hosted our annual mug club
party and mug club 10th year anniversary. This is the party
every year that celebrates you guys as part of our family.
If you aren't already a Mug Club member,
now is just as good a time as any to join. Each $40
annual membership includes our unique
mug-club t-shirt (this year's is being modeled by Dennis
himself up above), you get a 20oz pour instead of 16oz for the same
price (drink large everytime!), and we will invite you to parties
and special events here at Gallaghers' (too much fun).
