The Brewer’s Advent Calendar Sold At Costco!

Costco is at it again!

The holiday season has yet to begin and advent calendars are already being sold.  This time instead of a chocolate or wine calendar, behind each door is a can of craft German beer!  Kalea, the makers of this wonderful advent calendar are trying to promote small craft breweries from all over Germany that you cannot typically find in stores.  This gives you a chance to try something new and rave about it to all your friends…in which they probably can’t purchase it in stores. 

The Beer Run

A 5K & Craft Beer Run

Sunday, October 13th, 2019
Allaire, New Jersey


Take a run or stroll through the 1700’s village of Allaire, New Jersey and celebrate crossing the finish line with a beer fest! Because running is always better with beer, right?

The Historic Village of Allaire used to be an iron-producing factory-town, home to Howell Iron Works, Co. The town consisted of a pattern-making shop, blacksmith, post office, general store, school, church, and the mills that were used to finish the iron products produced. It was a small, self-sufficient town which has now been transformed into an interactive museum.

The Beer Run is a 5K run or walk through the historic town of Allaire and beautiful natural trails nearby. When you cross the finish line you will be handed a tasting glass so you can reward yourself with some beer from 12+ local breweries. There will also be live music, lawn games, and food trucks! It’s a party for sure, and you’ve earned it.

Tickets for the Beer Run include race registration, beer, a tasting glass, and access to the live music, food trucks and lawn games. You can also purchase tickets strictly for the beer fest. Or, you can purchase tickets for the run and be the designated driver. REGISTER HERE and enjoy the Beer Run!

See you there!
Cheers,
Danyelle

Watermelon Cocktails for the Fourth

Watermelon is one of my favorite ingredients to mix up in a cocktail on a hot, summer day.  And this Fourth of July, I’m bringing you multiple watermelon cocktail recipes to quench the thirst of your party goers!  The juicy sweetness of watermelon lends itself to pretty much any liquor. But my absolute favorite is mixing watermelon with gin. I smash some watermelon in my glass, add gin, a squeeze of lime, top with lime seltzer and boom, you have my very own cocktail at hand, “Dee’s Watermelons.”  I hope you enjoy these festive cocktails this Fourth of July!  Cheers.
