New Beer this week in Atlanta

This was taken from the savannah Distributing report for this week. Many of you do not get this so I decided to repost.

That’s right boys and girls, as of January 1, 2011 the Peach State will officially become the 8th state in which our beers are distributed! Thanks to our distribution partners at Savannah Distributing, Georgians from Chattahoochee to Okefenokee (and everywhere in between) will soon be among the lucky souls who can call themselves members of the Lost Abbey congregation.

Over the next few weeks there will be a number of events around GA to celebrate the arrival of Port Brewing & The Lost Abbey. If you’re in Georgia (or close enough to get there), make sure to check Facebook and your favorite craft beer sites for events close to you.

Update on Rochefort Trappist brewery

This quote is from http://belgianbeerspecialist.blogspot.com/2011/01/rochefort-trappist-brewery-church.html

There are no critical damages to the brewery, community, library or church. Also, the monk’s sleeping quarters were spared as well. Additionally, despite preliminary reports stating that over 27,000 liters of beer was destroyed in the fire, no beer was lost. Saving the library, which is full of priceless old books, as well as the brewery and church, were priorities of the several fire brigades that fought the blaze."


This is great news. Hopefully we can verify it from other independent sources.
Cheers
