Clown Shoes The Barista – A Clown Shoes legend, Brown Angel, put away her dancing shoes to focus on extracting espresso, brewing coffee and pouring latte art with Zen-like focus.

*Prairie & Friends TRVE Edition – A base gose with a proprietary strain of lactobacillus for the kettle souring and to acidify the beer. A judicious amount of Hawaiian Black Lava salt was used in the boil to add just a touch of salinity. Over-ripened peaches were macerated and added to wine barrels, onto which the beer was laid to rest for about four months. 6.66 ABV / Tulsa, OK / Ratebeer 87 / Availability: Limited / *Arriving Friday

*Prairie Vous Francais – This farmhouse ale is brewed to be refreshing. It is brewed with barley, oats, and wheat to build a foundation for saaz hops and brettanomyces bruxellensis to play.

Schilling Grapefruit – New Packaging. Grapefruit flavors tempered by a touch of apple sweetness, and a crisp, dry finish. 6% ABV / Auburn, WA / Availability: Plenty

Ommegang Game of Thrones Seven Kingdoms – Seven Kingdoms is a marriage of a traditional Belgian-style wheat and a hop-forward American ale – but unlike so many of the marriages on the show, the resulting hoppy wheat is pleasant, playful and inspired. 6.9% ABV / Cooperstown, NY / Beeradvocate 88 / Availability: Decent

Uinta Birthday Suit – Brewed in celebration of Uinta’s 23rd anniversary, this American Sour Ale bares a lambic malt base, and a belgian yeat character.

Green Flash Pacific Gem – This Single Hopped Pale Ale is built on an English malt base of Golden Promise, 2-Row malted barley, and Caramalt to allow the hop qualities to shine through.
