Beau's Beer Gears Up for Summer [Food/Vendor]
2008 Apr 21
20,000 Bottles Arrive
Jen (Steve's sister) has just put another update on the Beau's Blog. The 20,000 bottles are to arrive today (Monday, April 21st) and she outlines how busy they'll be over the next few days getting the shipments ready and out to the LCBOs. Talk about labour intensive!
And in the future look for Mrs. McGarrigle's Mustard to feature a mustard made with Beau's Beer. YUM - YUM

Oh, that's so "poverty pack" :-)
I've got a keg of it in the basement keg fridge (as opposed to the back shed keg fridge) just waiting for me to take it to Big Strange New Brunswick Brew!
Only 3 more days!
EDIT : just so that's not take the wrong way, "Poverty Pack" is what we always called a 6 pack

Was recently out to Beau's in VanKleek Hill, and have discovered that they have had to make some changes... they are no longer offering the $ 2.00 Refund on returned 750 ml bottles. Turns out that the LCBO has some sort of rule that the Refund can only be equal to that at the Beer Store, so from now on it'll be 20 cents a bottle returned. However, in order to encourage customers to continue to visit the Brewery, since June 1st Beau's has implemented a sort of customer loyalty program that gives points that can be used for Beau's merchandise. And they have some nice new items. They are hopeful that customers will continue to come out to the Brewery (and bring their empties).
While I was at the Brewery I got a taste of the new summer ale, Festivale (a take on the words Festive-Ale). It will only be available at summer festivals where Beau's is on-tap, or if you are lucky to hit the Brewery on the right day. It is a nice red ale. If you really want a Growler, best to call the Brewery ahead of your arrival, because of its limited release, days that it in stock at the Brewery, it doesn't stay in the cooler very long. BTW, you won't find Beau's at the Bluesfest this summer... Molson's has that contract all tied up, but Festivale is being served at the Jazz Festival thru June 30th.
And word is that Mark (the Brewmaster) is recovering well from his recent car accident. Beau's wants to thank everyone who sent cards or messages of support to Mark.
