We went there for everything we needed. We went there when thirsty, of course, and when hungry, and when dead tired. We went there when happy, to celebrate, and when sad, to sulk. We went there after weddings and funerals, for something to settle our nerves, and always for a shot of courage just before. We went there when we didn't know what we needed, hoping someone might tell us. We went there when looking for love, or sex, or trouble, or for someone who had gone missing, because sooner or later everyone turned up there. Most of all we went there when we needed to be found.

FEATURED BOTTLE OF THE WEEK


EXILE BEATNIK SOUR
http://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/29250/134346/

Our bottle of the week comes from Exile Brewing Company in Des Moines, Iowa.  We came across this gem about nine months ago when we met Eastern Iowa Exile Representative, Jacob, at a HyVee in Bettendorf.  As Jacob explained to us then, "This sour will be your gateway to sour beers," and he was right!

This sour is very refreshing.  The tartness is not overwhelming and the aftertaste leaves you salivating for your next sip.  From the American Wild Ale family, this bottle has a 5.6% ABV.

Don't take our word for it! 1 out of 1 dentist surveyed approves, too.  Matt Geneser, D.D.S., clinical assistant professor in Department of Pediatric Dentistry at the University of Iowa loves this sour.  "Whoa! At first I was extremely cautious of a sour beer but this beer packed a taste that I did not know existed in a beer bottle form.  Exile knocked it out of the park again!"

Stop in today to try an EXILE BEATNIK SOUR!
