In recent weeks, Boise has welcomed Mike Hale from Hale’s Ales, and I have traveled to Seattle to visit the Pike Brewing Company.  The Boise Co-op is proud to offer an increased variety from both of these quality breweries.  In addition to Hale’s Mongoose IPA, we now carry Red Menace Big Amber, the seasonal Kolsch German style Ale, Pale American Ale, and El Jefe.  We look forward to the O’Brien’s Harvest Ale and the Rudyard’s Rare Barleywine in the coming months.  From Pike’s, we’ve added their bomber (22oz bottle) rotation to the regular stable of six-pack offerings.  These bombers include:  5X Stout; Monk’s Uncle Tripel; and, Tandem Double Ale.  Bring a bit of the Emerald City home with you today.  Cheers, ~m
