    I'm dissolving in a pool of tears that I won't be able to get to Butler, NJ this Saturday for the unleashing of

    Ramstein ICE Storm Eisbock

    1-5 PM. Open House with Growler fills available.

    A truly world class brew.

    I'm too old to drive 5 hours round trip for this right?? My wife would kill me right?? Sooooo tempting! Does anyone know if they have bottles of Winter Wheat for sale? Are they for sale in the area?

    Winter wheat was released around this time last year and we get it in SEPA if you ask for it. My store was getting all the Ramstein Seasonal beers last year but have new ownership this year and they seemed to stop ordering all Ramstein. Might have to change that.

    Good thought, I tried many years ago, time to try again. I think I have a decent shot with my go-to.

    These are the guys who bring the beer into SEPA:

    I've found at least two different distributors (retailers) in DelCo who were able to get me some of the Ramstein beers.

    Biggest problem I ran into with getting Winter Wheat was whether the brewery had produced enough to fill kegs and then have some to fill bottles. (They sell a lot for on tap dispense.)

    Very fitting release as we are looking at ice in the forecast on Friday and Sunday

    Were you able to get any Winter Wheat this year? I'm waiting to hear back from The Beer Yard to see if they can get me any but they didn't seem too hopeful. What other beers were you able to get from Ramstein recently?

    Didn't try this year. One of the places I've used seemed to get the Pils and Dunkle with some degree of reliability.
