CANFEST 2011 Blogger Contest Announcement!

Annnnnnnnnnd we’re back! CANFEST returns for its 3rd year of bringing all that delicious beer you find in a can to the masses. This time we’re aiming for the stars- we’ve got a new venue in downtown Reno, we’re expanding to a beer dinner awards ceremony on top of the CANFEST extravaganza, and of course, we’re going to once again make one beer blogger very happy with a trip to Reno to drink canned beer with us!

Last year we had the honor of bringing out Josh from Lost in the Beer Aisle. He was pretty rad.

Because of how great the response and experience was regarding the contest, we’re going to re-vamp it and present the same offer to beer bloggers in 2k11!

So here’s the deal:
July 1st thru September 15th we’re offering those with an established beer blog (meaning you didn’t build a blog simply to participate in this contest) an opportunity to write one blog post, centered on why they deserve to come to CANFEST. We are very partial to creativity and humor. Once your blog post is live, send the link back to my constance@abbipr.com email with an appropriate subject line.
Once we’ve got the compiled list of blog posts, we will host each link on a protected online survey, open it for votes, and pick a winner based on votes. The winner will be flown to Reno for the weekend and have the opportunity to attend all of CANFEST’s festivities. We will put you up for Friday and Saturday night, give you a complimentary ticket to the beer dinner and CANFEST event, and grace you with our presence of awesomeness.

So now you’ve got the details- on your mark, get set, GO!

Cheers and happy writing!

Caughlin Club Beer Dinner

May 11th is our next scheduled beer dinner and it's taking place at the gorgeous Caughlin Ranch Athletic Club. Food & Beverage director Brandy Kuebler has concocted a menu that could make the driest of mouths water with anticipation. Spicy beer cheese soup, how delicious does that sound?!

Make your reservations soon and be sure to book for a couple, because you can't always JUST treat yourself. Or maybe you can....

We'll do specials all week, including:

TUESDAY: $2 pints all day and 20% off everything to go.

WEDNESDAY: Come hear " 'Something Old That's New Again': Nevada's Modern Brewing Industry" by Eric Moody at 7pm. He will discuss Nevada's modern brewpub/microbrewery era that began in 1987 with the first brewpub legislation. This event supports Nevada In The West magazine, and their one year anniversary of the publication. Also, get 20% off all things to go all day.

This ale is a stronger, hoppier version of our Tule Duck Red Ale, which was aged in a bourbon barrel. It is 8% ABV, velvety rich and extra smooth, with more pronounced hop aroma and a hint of bourbon and wood flavors.

Don't miss it! Food will be available throughout the day. Please come celebrate all week with us!

NEW Black Adder IBA, NEW Hours and Valentines Day Gift Bag

Wooo-hooooo! We have a brand new beer coming out this Friday (Feb 4)! The Black Adder IBA (India Black Ale)! This black IPA is fully black in color, with a nutty, roasty malt character and a moderate body, with a full, bright hop bitterness and aroma. De-husked black malt provides color and roastiness without astringent sharpness, and dark Caramel and Special Roast also deepen the color while imparting mild sweetness with lots of toasty complexity and depth. Newport, Palisade, Glacier and Ahtanum hops create multiple layers of crisp, American character with no harsh edges. It is 7.3% ABV and has 85 IBUs. Please come down to the brewery and enjoy $2 pints of any of our beers THIS Friday, February 4th. We also plan to can a limited amount of this IBA for sale only at Buckbean, and it will be available mid to late February. Finally, fill up growlers for half off on Feb 5 for the Super Bowl.

We have NEW hours for our bar that should be more convenient for those getting off work, and unable to make it to Buckbean by 6 PM. The new hours are:
Tuesday from 3 PM to 6 PM
Wednesday to Friday from 3 PM to 8 PM
Saturday from 11 AM to 6 PM
Also, during our extended hours 6 PM to 8 PM (Wed through Fri), you can get $3 pints, and if you need a snack, we have mini pizzas, potato chips and popcorn.

Lastly, Beer and Chocolate - a great combination! This Friday, February 4th through Valentines Day, you can get a Valentines Gift Bag for the one you love. Get six truffles, made here in Reno by Sweets Handmade Candies, three beers and a pint glass for only $20. Each beer is paired with two truffles that make a wonderful combination. Heck, you may just want to buy one of these for yourself.

Cheers, The Buckbean Brew Crew
