Sweet Stout – Our Winter Seasonal Ale

It’s true San Diego. Winter is here. We were all made abruptly aware by the reported 400 traffic accidents reported the day of our first major rain storm. 400! How about a toast to our emergency responders? As a former beach lifeguard for the city of San Diego, I know they love their job. But it’s sometimes thankless. We at TailGate Beer say cheers!
 
Temperatures are dropping and holiday gift giving typically means an exciting time for beer drinkers. Holiday warmers and winter releases have been coming out sooner and sooner. Some companies releasing them in October! And why not? There are a number of delicious beers that we only get to sample a few precious months of the year. Why not stretch that availability? I love having more beer selection. That’s why TailGate offers 5 year round releases!
 
As has been our winter custom, Sweet Stout is our Winter Seasonal. It has developed quite a following and we have been receiving a number of inquiries about where to find it this year. I sadly have a good news/bad news situation. Good news is we are selling more beer than we ever expected to in our first two years of operations. You are responsible for that, thank you! Bad news? We’re selling so much beer that we needed to make an inventory decision this winter. To keep up with continued demand and in attempting to continue expansion, we need to focus on our main lineup of year round releases. At this point and time we will not be brewing Sweet Stout.
 
I personally am staying optimistic and hope to be able to brew a very special release batch of the Sweet Stout with the turn of the New Year. I would like to at the very least send out a small batch of 15-30bbl’s. Cross your fingers everyone and hope for a holiday miracle!
 
As a sidenote: we receive a number of emails and calls about where to find TailGate Beer. How to order by the case or even keg. Please contact our general email and we’ll make sure your stockings are stuffed this year!
 
Thank you everyone for your continued support!
 
Cheers!

New Distribution in San Diego

Great news and big week!

After an amazingly successful summer, TailGate Beer is now officially distributed by one of the largest beverage distribution companies in San Diego County.  John Lenore and Company will be facilitating a bottle availability launch of Amber Wave.

The first beer brewed on a commercial level by TailGate Beer is now the first beer to reach the mass distribution of the broad market.  Customers delivered to this week include local liquor stores across San Diego County and the Whole Foods in Hillcrest!

Amber Wave will be immediately available in 22 ounce “bomber” bottles.  Feel free to purchase in 6 pack fashion.

As was reported in the last blog post, we debuted Jay’s Blacktop Blonde as a summer seasonal.  It was such a popular release and put on so many restaurants regular menus that we decided to do everyone a favor and keep it on board.  Jay’s Blacktop Blonde is now our newest year round release!

As football season continues don’t forget to keep stocking up your TailGate Beer for all your tailgating parties.  If you ever have trouble finding TailGate near you, send us an email!  We try very hard to keep up to date listings but that list changes daily.  A great problem to have!

We are also continually searching way to better connect with you, lovers of TGB.  I have a personal twitter account and it shares all my exploits like where I’ll be, what my days are like and philosophical thoughts like the state of the Chargers.  Follow @WesleyTailGate for all things insightful.

Again, thank everyone for their support as we continue to grow.  Keep wearing that TGB merchandise and please, TailGate responsibly! Wesley Keegan Owner – TailGate Beer
