On The Horizon......

Often times in the beer industry, we know that we are going to receive certain limited releases, but we don't know exactly when they'll be in. For this reason, the best we can do, is let you know that we will be receiving them........eventually.
With this, here are a few special releases that will be available this January:

Bell's Hopslam:
Does it even need a description? Bell's world famous (probably) Hopslam is on its way! This Double IPA will be in store in mid-January (probably Jan 15th or 16th....)

Both beers will be available soon, possibly by January 12th. Stay tuned to our facebook page for an update.

Craft Beer Power Rankings!

Image
Welcome Back! This article, in which I rank the beers that we currently have in stock, is the start of something new that I thought of while speaking to some of my co-workers as we brainstormed new methods of speaking craft beer. How It Works: In "Craft Beer Power Rankings," we highlight our expansive collection of craft beers by first grouping our beers into categories based on style of beer (IPA, Stout, Sour, etc.) We then rank the top 10 beers that we currently have in stock in each group. We rank the beers by distilling several important pieces of information relating to each beer into one aggregate score. We calculate the scores of each beer based on a number of factors, including each beer's Untappd score, Rate Beer  score, and overall reputation of the brewery that brewed each beer. Top 10 IPAs In Stock (Week of 4/16) 10.) Maine Brewing (Maine): Woods & Waters IPA (6.2% ABV, Format: 16.9oz Bottle)   Untappd: 4/5  Ratebeer: 98/100 From The Horse's

Welcome back everyone. It's been a little while since my last post, and I apologize for the delay. Besides our obvious name change, I have also been pre-occupied with several large projects related to Joe's Beverage Warehouse, including some exciting new collaborations on the horizon (shhhh...it's still a secret). In any event, I am back and better than ever, sitting in front of my cheap laptop to tell you about some new beers that will be hitting our shelves this week! Cigar City: "White Oak Jai Alai" A few months back, Cigar City Brewing of Tampa, FL made our hearts flutter when they began distributing in Chicagoland. Now that the brewery has installed its mainstay lineup into our repertoire, it's time to spice things up a bit. Enter: "White Oak Jai Alai." This sophisticated spin on the brewery's flagship IPA involves an addition of white oak spirals into its brewing process, which leads to a finished product that has unmistakable hints

From Reality TV Show Contestants to Craft Beer Pioneers

In all walks of life, there are those who walk in the footsteps of giants, and there are others who choose to blaze their own trails. This holds true in the craft beer industry, where there are now over 6,000 breweries in the U.S. alone. Under these circumstances, many breweries continue to falter as they churn out the same old tired IPAs and lagers. One brewery, however, has gone out on a limb and is now changing the game and spreading its wings at Cardinal Liquor Depot Joliet. MobCraft Presenting Their Business on Reality TV hit show "Shark Tank" Changing The Game :  As I was flipping through channels one boring night, I decided to check out "Shark Tank," a reality show where business owners present their plans and goals to a group of successful wealthy business moguls in hopes of receiving their blessing in the form of an investment in their companies. On this night, MobCraft Brewing of Milwaukee was on the show, pitching their idea to the "Sharks.
