Happy Monday! We’ve got TWO new items today from the Asheville powerhouse Hi-Wire Brewing. Feeling salty? 🥒 Grab a Wickles Pickle Beer for a refreshing burst of pickle flavor and get a little dilly. After something sour you always need something sweet right? Hi-Wire has you covered with their Caramel Macchiato 10W-40 Stout. ☕ Go ahead, we think you deserve a little treat. 🎁

Wickles Pickle Beer (5% ABV) - This crushable sour ale is tart and refreshing with notes of fresh dill and subtle spice from Wickles’ wicked brine, made famous by its perfect balance of sweet, sour, and spicy flavors.

Caramel Macchiato 10W-40 Imperial Stout (8% ABV) - Layers of sweet cream, dark roasted coffee, Ugandan vanilla, and gooey caramel come together to form a perfectly crafted latte-inspired delight.

Welcome to Virginia, @topplingbrews ! We are so excited to bring Toppling Goliath to the great state of Virginia. If you know anything about the craft beer scene, you know about Pseudo Sue, the #1 purple dinosaur in our book. You may also recognize the name from the countless awards they've raked in at beer competitions throughout the years. And while most people know Toppling Goliath for their prehistoric pale ales, they also produce some of the best kettle sours and barrel-aged stouts you can find.

Founded in 2009, Toppling Goliath Brewing Company is located in beautiful Decorah, Iowa. After a runaway success in home brewing and less than a decade later, Toppling Goliath has become world-renowned for IPAs and barrel-aged stouts.

Toppling Goliath will be hitting shelves starting on Monday, so make sure you pick some up to see what all the hype is about!

Pseudo Sue - Citra-hopped pale ale that is medium in body with a mild bitterness in the finish. Ferocious hop aromas of citrus and mango; bright with a bite. Hints of passionfruit too.

Radiant Haze - Full-bodied, hazy double IPA Citra-hopped for a juicy combination of mango, orange, and pineapple flavors. Finishes with a grapefruit aroma and ferocious bite.

Dragon Fandango - Mango, passion fruit, and dragon fruit combine in this unique kettle sour beer.

Peacharine Dry Hop Pseudo Sue - Ferocious aromas of peach and tangerine give a refreshing taste that is bright with just enough bite!

King Sue - Citra, Mosaic and Strata hops. Hazy IPA with notes of orange and mango. Collaboration brew.

Dorothy's New World Lager - Unfiltered lager mild in body, light in color, and clean to taste. Noble hops.
