Weyerbacher is releasing Rapture, a 6.7% ABV sour beer in the style of a Flanders Red.  They’ll be dishing out tastes and you can grab cases there to go.  It all goes down on September 22nd from 5p-8p and if it’s anything like last year’s Riserva release, it’ll be a damn good time.

The Wooden Match has expanded their beer list by 2x.  It (thankfully) includes more beers that pair well with cigars now.  Their daily specials (which are great deals) have also changed up so make sure to check those out as well.

Black and Blue in Easton is holding a Chimay and cheese pairing on September 23rd with one of the Chimay reps.  $35 per person plus gratuity gets you beer, cheese, and a glass to take home.
