Beer is not just a passing trend.  Beer in our fair city and country has grown up over the past decade.  From pairings to offerings beer is no longer wine’s plaid wearing, “hoser” like, scraggly bearded younger sibling.  She’s all grown up!  But like wine, it’s not easy to know what you like and why until you get out there and try more bottles.  The Craft Beer Cellar in Belmont has a monthly beer club delivered right to your door.  If you prefer to get out of the house to enjoy beer then consider Hopster’s: Brew and Boards 99 Club.

Craft Beer Cellar’s Beer Club comes in different forms.  There is The Sampler, The Half Sampler, and several specialty bundles.  The beer is delivered to your door on the first week of every month. Craft Beer Cellar aims to run a spectrum of styles each month, bu also focus on seasonality and time of year, as it’s relevance to craft beer.
