(Note that our beer will be located in the volunteer tent, and will only be available for volunteers and bands at the festival, so as not to take away from the great NC breweries that will be on-site selling pints of fantastic NC beer... go grab a pint from Fullsteam, Lone Rider, Carolina Brewery or Foothills, then come on over to see us and say HI!)

About the Event: Come on out to celebrate The Beer Dispensary's one year anniversary! This will not only be a great chance to come out and celebrate with Beer Dispensary owner Tim Overcash, but an awesome chance to help the VERY local community by donating a few cans or packaged goods to the Western Wake Crisis Ministry. We will be collecting nonperishable food items for the Western Wake Crisis Ministry (www.wwcm.org). They provide a helping hand to the Apex & Holly Springs, NC community. It just so happens that their office is located right next door to The Beer Dispensary (told you it was super local!) and our event is just in time to help folks for the holidays! Come by, bring a few food items, and get a chance to taste some great beer.

What We're Pouring: Winter Harvest Dark Saison (A seasonal specialty from Haw River Farmhouse Ales using pilsner, munich and abbey malts, a little flaked rye and our Belgian Saison yeast. Our recipe includes pumpkin, butternut squash, sweet potatoes and acorn squash from a host of NC farms through Eastern Carolina Organics in Pittsboro and clover honey from Cane Mountain Farms in Graham. We also spice it just a little at the end of the boil with fresh-ground nutmeg, ginger, cinnamon and allspice. Finishing just a little sweeter than a traditional saison, this version weighs in at 6.9% abv and has been specially brewed for Rockfish Seafood Grill's "Casks for a Cure" fundraising event with an ounce or two of American oak chips steeped for a month in Maker's Mark bourbon.)
About the Event: Rockfish Seafood Grill will be hosting Casks for a Cure. This event will feature casks from three not yet open NC Craft Breweries donated in support of a great cause! Use #casksforacure on Twitter to tweet about and keep up with updates about this event. Here are the details: $10 Donation to enter... All proceeds go towards Susan G. Komen for a Cure...

September 15, 2011: Bottle Revolution | Raleigh, NC
What We're Pouring: Rusted Plow Farmhouse Saison (A cask-conditioned, dry-hopped version of our flagship Farmhouse Saison. We use local sourwood honey in the boil, along with Belgian pilsner, wheat and acidulated malts. This "wild" version of our Rusted Plow is fermented with three different Belgian yeasts, for a complex, funky, fruity backbone, then dry-hopped with a few ounces of Sorachi Ace hops, for a grassy, lemony finish.)
About the Event: Bottle Revolution is so very close to opening the doors (yeah, we actually have three of 'em). As a thank you for your support and encouragement, we would like to invite you to a private tasting (with the help of the good folks at RA Jeffreys and Raleigh's LoneRider Brewery). We also like a good cause... so... here's the "dealio": Thursday, September 15th, from 4:30p-7:30p. For a $3 donation (with all proceeds to go to the SPCA of Wake County) you'll receive a ticket to taste a fantastic variety of brews!!! Wait! There's More!
