The Center for Disease Control has published findings that show raising beer taxes will reduce the incidence rate of gonorrhea. Every month we set Trever free in our beer cooler to pick out a beer special for the month. Creekside Wheat Butte Creek Brewing Co. - A crisp refreshing version of a German hefeweizen. Only brewed once each spring. It s a cool little college town with a bunch of greenery and home to the well known Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. and the not so well known Butte Creek Brewing Co .
Butte Creek is in an expansion stage thanks to their organic line of ales.
According to Tom Atmore, one of the owners, they will soon be expanding for their 2nd time in two years, adding a new 80 barrel fermenter increasing their annual capacity from 4,000 to 5,500 barrels. During our visit to pick up this month s featured beer, we had the opportunity of trying two seasonal brews Spring Ale and Summer Ale which they only brew one batch of each year. These are excellent light beers that should not be missed. The Summer Ale is currently only available on draft in the Chico area. If you have been with our Bunch of the Month Club for the past 4 months, you have had the chance to try most all of their beers.
