LOCAL SPOTLIGHT

Summer's Here and Brewlywed Ale is Back!

Posted by Angel Babbitt June 21, 2013 11:08 AM

Happy first day of summer to all you beer-loving couples out there.

The limited edition Samuel Adams Brewlywed Ale is back by popular demand and will be available for sale on June 26 exclusively at the Boston Brewery. Created to celebrate the tradition of brewing at weddings, Brewlywed Ale is an alternative to the wine and cocktail selections found at most traditional weddings. The limited release, Belgian-style "bride ale" offers layers of flavor including tropical, floral aromas of Summer and Stella hops with subtle hints of spice.

Want in on this beer? Arrive early! There will only be 300 cases available for sale.

Here's a peek at the schedule:

Brewlywed Ale Day – Samuel Adams Boston Brewery, 30 Germania Street

WHEN: Wednesday, June 26, 2013; 9:00am – 1:00pm

7:00AM: Line up early. The first 50 people in line have the opportunity to purchase a bottle signed by Jim Koch. The first 20 people to arrive in bridal attire will be moved to the front of the line (guaranteeing one of those bottles!)

Every engaged couple deserves a sacred place where wedding chitchat is both embraced and celebrated. That place is the Boston Bridal Lounge.

Located on posh Newbury Street, Boston Bridal Lounge is the ultimate one-stop shop for all things wedding. During a recent visit, I met co-founder Eleni Granas and wedding adviser, Liz Romano, who graciously invited me to drop by and dish on the progress of my wedding plans. Within minutes, I received referrals for a florist, baker, and places to host a rehearsal dinner. Eleni and Liz made me feel incredibly comfortable, and trust me when I tell you, they know their stuff!

Readers, say hello to Eleni Granas and Liz Romano, the team at Boston Bridal Lounge!

Decorated with lush tablescapes, inspiring vision boards, and binders full of valuable vendor referrals, the boutique is designed to provide engaged couples with inspiration and resources to help plan a smooth and seamless wedding day. Couples can also tap into the talents of the Boston Bridal Lounge team who offer in-house wedding planning services. I was impressed, and I left feeling rejuvenated with new ideas and a pocketful of vendor contacts to help the Mister and I as we enter the home stretch of our own planning. Five months to go...and counting!
