Tasting Room Happenings - August 2010

Tasting Room Hours
Sunday: 2pm to 8pm
Monday to Thursday: 3pm to 8pm
Friday and Saturday: Noon to 9pm

The 13th of August is right around the corner, and you can bet we've got something special planned. It's National Lefthander's Day, and the only logical place to properly celebrate such an illustrious holiday is here at Left Hand Brewing Company. Come down to the Tasting Room and you'll leave with a free pilsner glass with the purchase of a pilsner.

Summer Concert Schedule
We’ve got live, local music here at the Left hand Tasting Room and you can count on it every Saturday and Sunday, and maybe a few times in between. The show gets started on Sundays at 4:30 and 5pm every other day. Grab a pint and join us in the Malt Room.

Saturday, August 7th: Tom Comwell
Sunday, August 8th: Kort McCumber
Saturday, August 14th: Amanda Capper

Seasonal Beer Releases
Bard's Ale: an english mild, is now on tap for a limited time.
Twin Sisters: our long-anticipated double IPA, will be released on August
20th.
Oktoberfest: you've been waiting for it, we've been waiting for it, and this
year it will debut on Saturday, August 7th. Time to dig out your lederhosen,
dust off your dirndl, and come down to the Tasting Room!

Beer Specials for August
12 oz of our Russian Imperial Stout for just $3.25 all month long

Farmer’s Market at Left Hand Brewing
Left Hand Brewing is delighted to host Longmont’s only Wednesday Farmer’s Market. For those of us who work, or sleep, during traditional farmer's market hours, we now have local farmers, vendors, bakers, and musicians in our parking lot on Wednesday evenings from 5pm to 7pm. Local food, local music, and local beer… what's not to love? Look for the market to continue through the summer.

Imbiber of the Month
Our Imbiber of the Month is that one person who really brightened up Left Hand Tasting Room during the previous month. Often, the Imbiber of the Month visits the Tasting Room every single day during that month, and while that may not be the case this time around, when she is here, it's pretty special. This month, it was a treat to see Kathy Cowley's pretty face on a regular basis. If you haven't had the chance to meet Kathy, she's the one with the beautiful accent, and she'll be extra easy to spot in August as she'll be drinking all of her beers out of the mighty 25oz "King's Cup." It is such a pleasure having Kathy and her husband Mark and son Matt as part of our Left Hand family. Thank you, Kathy. Now come pose for a picture so we can get you up on the wall of fame!

Indian Peaks Alers
If you’re reading this newsletter, you’re probably a beer geek. You like beer a little more than your average Joe, and you may have even considered making your own. Well, we have a great club that has been meeting once a month at Left Hand for years now. The Indian Peaks Alers is Longmont’s Homebrew Club comprised of newbie homebrewers and nationally recognized, award winning homebrewers that talk, taste, judge, and teach beer the 2nd Wednesday of the month in our Tasting Room. Their next meeting is on August 11th. For additional information send an email to ipa.pres@gmail.com.

Dog Wash
Every summer we do a series of Dog Wash events that benefit the Longmont Humane Society. They make up some of our favorite Sundays of the season, with brats and beer and puppies galore. The proceeds go to a great cause and you get a clean pooch, as well as chance for nail trims and discounted micro- chipping. Join us on Sunday, August 15th from 11am to 3pm for our next event.

Ales4FemAles
Left Hand Brewing has been hosting a wonderful event each month for years now. Every month Cinzia Wallace and Sue Smith-Troy bring in over 100 ladies in a club focused on beer education for women, by women. Each meeting the ladies rally to drink and learn about beer, pair beer with food, and spend time with other like-minded women. This month, the group will meet on Monday, August 2nd and Monday, August 16th to discuss pilsners. The events are always booked with a waitlist, and this month the RSVP process has changed slightly, so reach out to ales4females@gmail.com to get more info and to get on the invite mailing list.
