The Brew Works is pumping out all sorts of new stuff. Beer-wise they’ve got Hefeweizen, Blueberry Belch, and Chain Link Pilsener. Not a big fan of blueberry beer, but the other two sound like great summertime quaffs. They’ve also got sangrias in the form of classic red (cabernet, rum, limes, oranges, apples, orange juice), premium red (cab, Patron silver, Patron Citronge, limes, oranges, apples, orange juice), and white (chard, Absolut Pears, Absolute Mandarin, orange liquer, oranges, strawberries, pears). Go forth and consume.
