Brooklyn-Schneider Hopfen Weiss keg coming to Barley’s
According to a thread on Beerinator, Barley’s Asheville is getting a keg of the Brooklyn-Schneider Hopfen Weiss, the version brewed at Brooklyn Brewery. We called them to confirm the news this afternoon and while they are not sure when they’re getting it or when it will put on, it IS coming. This is a keg-only release in the South, so be sure to get out and try it. We’ve heard it’s really hoppy. (We almost feel bad for complaining last week, but not really.) Updates to follow.

It’s official: You can buy beer in stores in PA
My old friends, rejoice. You can now buy beer at convenience and grocery stores, presumably in quantities of less than a case. For all the great beer available in Pennsylvania, it’s time the archaic beer laws changed which only allowed take-out services in bars and brewpubs.
