Side Project Single Barrel Beer Event!

We are inviting 8 customers!! Emails go out next week

We are going to select another Single Barrel beer at Side Project Brewing!
We have a date now -- August 28th!!
We are doing another barrel tasting with Cory and Karen King at Side Project Brewing. They are allowing us to bring some customers to taste and you will help select a single barrel of beer to be bottled exclusive for The Wine and Cheese Place. Everyone in attendance will be guaranteed a chance to purchase a bottle of that beer when it is bottled.

We are still working on details - but here is what we know now
  • We will be inviting 8  customers to helps us taste and select, like the first event.
  • It will take place at Side Project Brewing. August 28th (time to be determined)
  • We will invite top beer supporters with a very heavy emphasis on Side Project beer supporters at our stores (you must be a member of our rewards club) and our other TWCP beers.
  • Selection will be based on purchases since November 1st, 2023 up until August 10th, 2024 

Cory and Karen King put on an amazing event last time-
Here are some pictures from our first single barrel selection
 



We do have some Side Project beers in stock now including  the new MERCI 2024!
We are so thankful to Cory and Karen King making this beer for us!!!
In 375ml bottles this year!!!


Side Project Merci 2024 Edition....$14.99 / 375ml
Merci was blended for our friend Paul Hayden at The Wine and Cheese Place in St. Louis. We would like to say “Merci” for all his support of Side Project Brewing by releasing Merci Vintage 2024, a blended Missouri Wild Ale.
For this latest Vintage, we focused on one of our favorite iterations of this beer, Blend #2, by incorporating a rich, funky Lambic-like palate, with our classical Side Project depth, and softness. As we do not blend to volume, only to taste, this batch is much smaller than previous releases and is packaged in 375 mL bottles to make sure we have enough to share. We also bottled this release of Merci in early January and have conditioned it exclusively with Brettanomyces Brux., a process we do not often use, for years of purposeful maturation and development in the bottle. We want this beer to express Side Project and our blending characteristics for years to come as you enjoy it now or later while saying “Merci” to those you are thankful for.
