Quest fleshes out can designs

Quest

In the days before their grand opening a couple of weeks ago, Quest began teasing the designs that would appear for each of their four core beers once they begin canning. On Thursday, those designs – as expected – got a bit of a face lift.

While they’re a little low quality, this photo shows what the canned versions of Ellida, Smoking Mirror, Golden Fleece and Kaldi will look like when they’re finally put in the can.

When will that happen? In this blogger’s opinion – and as someone who wants to have access to Kaldi on the regular – not soon enough.

Thomas Creek also adding Coffee Oatmeal Stout to lineup

When Thomas Creek launched its new website in June, a couple of new additions to the seasonal “Beers” section caught my eye: The Pumpkin Ale, which TC announced details of this week, and the new Coffee Oatmeal Stout, which caught my eye because … well, it’s a coffee oatmeal stout.

Info about a release date – likely later this year – and other details are TBA, but on Wednesday the label artwork for the new beer was released. This one’s described as a “creamy oatmeal stout with a dark roasted flavor and coffee aroma.”
