John’s Grocery Releasing Bells to Iowa
2010 March 23
If you live in Iowa and love beer, hopefully you have heard of John’s Grocery of Iowa City. Up to this point, it has been one of the greatest stores in Iowa to find the available crazy beers, and in particular, the Belgian beers. Since the Iowa Beer Equality act passed, we have been waiting to hear what breweries will be first to the new market with higher ABV beers available for sale in the state. Today we got an email from John’s Grocery stating that the store will be hosting an event on Thursday, March 25th at 11:59 PM to release a number of Bells’ beers. On that list of beer is Third Coast Ale, Expedition Stout, Two Hearted Ale, and a number of others including Hopslam.
John’s Grocery – Iowa’s premiminate Beer Retailer will celebrate the first load of “High Proof” beer to come into the state! On Thursday, March 25th at 11:59 p.m., we will unleash onto beer lovers a plethora of Michigan’s Most Wanted-Bells! We will have Third Coast Old Ale Barley Wine, Expedition Stout, Two Hearted Ale, and a very limited number of Hop Slam and Consecrator Dopple Bock. We also have a very limited number of Two Hearted 7.75 gallon 1/4 bbls for purchase as well. We have a very limited supply of these items, so there will be a strict limit of two six packs per customer per item on these beers. We will have special midnight only pricing on the rest of the Bell’s line up, including a blowout price on the Best Brown 5L mini kegs. At the same time, we will be welcoming to Iowa City one of Iowa’s newest breweries – Peacetree from Knoxville! We will have a limited number of their brand new Belgian IPA and Rye Porter, so stop down and sample some of the newest players in town!
