On Thursday Jan. 20th Egans is playing host to a Great Divide tap take over . The Event will run from 4pm until with proceeds going to Free The Hops and their continued effort to change the laws and culture of beer in Alabama. All drafts will be $3.50 and feature:
Great Divide Claymore Scotch Ale. Named for a medieval Scottish sword,
Claymore Scotch Ale is our tribute to the legendary “Wee Heavy” beers of Scotland. This malty, deep-ruby beauty features lots of caramel sweetness, a reserved hop profile, and a subtle warming character. Unlike its namesake, this beer only requires one hand, but it’ll still make you feel like nobility. 7.7% ABV. beeradvocate.com rating B+
Great Divide Espresso Oaked Age Yeti is a new addition to the Yeti clan. A
generous infusion of espresso adds yet another layer of complexity to this beer, combining with the vanilla oak character, intense roasty maltiness and bold hop profile to create a whole new breed of mythical creature. It’s official: You can now have Yeti with breakfast. 9.5% ABV. beeradvocate.com rating A- Read more »

SantaCon 10
One of our favorite events every year is happening this Friday night, SantaCon 10. The face book event page describes it like this:
"Come join all the other Santas for the only annual Santa themed pub crawl in the Tuscaloosa area. We will start out at the Wellthatscool.com taping (The well that cool Studio space above the oak city barber shop downtown. It's across the street from CHOM a few doors down from the Mellow Mushroom. If you can't meet us there at 8:30 the first stop sould be at the downtown pub at 9ish) and continue on from there. Here's how it works, we all meet up dressed as Santa and
go on a night long pub crawl grabbing a drink at each bar until we are drunk enough that we forget what we were doing and just spend the rest of the night at Egans or the like. CVS, Walgreens & Target etc all carry $15-20 Santa suits, remember that you will be drinking all nite in the suit so you may not want to go all out on a nice Santa suit that be nearly ruined by the next day."
