The first 75 reservations will be in the pub with additional reservations in the restaurant available at a variety of times. Join me for a great night.
Below is the delicious menu...
Beer Dinner Menu
Crab Bowl Dip - Start things off with this refreshing crab dip. Made with our own Leaping Leprechaun beer. Try our new seasonal with this one.
Caldo de Queso - OK, we lost the Irish theme for a minute but we don't think you'll mind. This one is made with our Emerald Lager and that one is the perfect match for this course.
Entree Choices:
Grilled Swordfish - This is our Lent special this year and we couldn't wait to show it off. This one is grilled with our special Drop Kick Ale brewed for the Kansas City Wizards.
Beef & O'Malley's - This is a twist on our traditional beef & Guinness served in the restaurant for years. This was part of our first beer dinner ever and one of our favorites. Ofcourse, you will want to enjoy this with a Cream Ale.
Chocolate Truffles - Finish with some truffles made with Flying Monkey Stout for a dark rich flavor.
It has been called many things in the Weston Brewing parking lot. Whether you call it the dust buster, aardvark or aero when it comes rolling along it means only one thing...
Just to let Drop Kick fans know we weren't just kidding about bottling it some day I decided to post the finished label. It is still a couple months from hitting shelves, but it is coming soon!
On Monday morning a new era at the Weston Brewing Company arrived on a flatbed trailer. At about 8:30am a truck from North Carolina pulled into the WBC parking lot with the 10'x24' piece of new equipment. Sean is seen in the photo getting into position to raise the machine from the trailer.
The next step in the process was to stand and stare in awe while trying to figure out how this was ever going to make it into the brewery. Initial attempts to lift as planned nearly tipped the forklift.
The last photo was taken from inside the brewery as we prepared for the final step.
The Weston Brewing Company is proudly moving towards completing the circle of food, drink and nature. The brewery donates spent grain to local cattle operations. Three different ranchers currently feed the high-protein leftovers of brewing to Weston cattle. Four healthy Galloway "Belties" enjoy a drink near Red Barn Farm. These four steers get a regular dose of barley.
After recovering from St. Patrick's Day at an Irish brewery it is time to get to work. With several new beers planned for summer and beyond and an expanding region the brewery is being prepared for a tunnel pasteurizer. The new equipment will make the beer more consistent on store shelves all over the midwest. The downside is the thing is huge. As you can see we are tearing things up to make it fit. Stay tuned for the "pasteurizer party" coming later in April.
St. Pat's 2009 was a cause for a big celebration. More than 600 folks joined us yesterday. We very much appreciate the support and all the fun you brought to Weston. A full day of Irish music, beer and food left all of us a little worn out as seen in the photo. Justin and Pete work themselves into a stooper feeding corned beef and cabbage to the masses. But don't worry about us, we will be back in action this weekend with Flannigan's Right Hook. They are a big favorite at the Pub and always bring a crowd.
