-In Choc Beer Co. news, the brewery is hosting a tour on the Saturday of Labor Day weekend. You can call (918) 423-2042 to book a spot. Also, Choc’s 2012 Gose should hit store shelves within a couple weeks.
-COOP Ale Works is adding a barleywine to its Territorial Reserve lineup. I’ll have more on this later on the blog.
-McNellie’s OKC is holding a Sam Adams Stein Hoisting Contest on Sept. 7. Email emily.white@mcnellies.com to sign up and prove your strength.
