Variety Packs for Shipping

7/30/2018

0 Comments

 
It's amazing sometimes how just a little change of perspective can make one realize they took something for granted so easily. Tthe variety six pack just happens to be one of those items.

Ever since we started offering the 750 ml with bags making a six pack, it's been immensely popular for people to get a variety, six different beers. Occasionally someone will get all six of the same beer, but it's rare. Now, when physically visiting the pub, selecting whatever you want is a given, of course you can do that. Doing this online on a website with e-commerce is a little different, requiring one to set up different check boxes with a maximum count and other options, all in a user friendly format. So, until that gets figured out, we've created a couple theme based variety packs ready to ship.
The Explorer 6 Pack
  • Amaizing Cream Ale
  • Gold Portage Blonde Ale
  • Sand Bay Wheat
  • Lost Bay IPA
  • Black Swan Stout
  • Drunken Loon Strong Dark Belgian
The Strongman 4 Pack
  • Hoppy Folly Strong IPA
  • Merlin Gruit
  • Drunken Loon Strong Dark Belgian
  • King Kong Strong Ale
Packaging
When ordering, you can rest assured that the beer will arrive in perfect conditions. The 750 ml bottles we're using are the same shape as a wine bottle, which given the 1.000's of wineries already shipping their bottles, provide packaging options that are ready to go and have been thoroughly tested.

Given all shipments are in Minnesota, deliveries can be made 1-2 days, 
As we get caught up with beers from summer and start adding new options, will be releasing other themed variety packs through fall and winter, such as one just for lagers, fruits, gruits, dark beers, and NAs.

Cheers,

Now Shipping Throughout Minnesota!

7/29/2018

0 Comments

 
For those that have tried our beers but not able to make it up so often, or for anyone else looking to try a far northern craft beer from Loony's Brew, you can now simply order from our website and done. Within a few days, sometimes the next day, it'll be delivered and it'll be almost like you're back in the beautiful Rainy Lake area, without the long drive of course. Some of the key points:
  • It only applies for certain beers for now, all and more will be available within a few months.
  • Age verification is confirmed upon delivery.
  • We're only shipping within Minnesota.
All shipments are done in 750 ml growler sizes.
​How it's Done
  • Staying Fresh: It'll be poured fresh and shipped to your door in 1-2 business days, the freshness and carbonation will be contained with the flip top cap.
  • Sizes: These are 750 ml bottles, about 25 ounces, almost 4 pounds total weight with bottle, beer and packaging.
  • Packaging: All bottles are well packed using the standard packaging that wineries use.
  • Age Verification: Your age will be checked upon delivery, we'll send you an email with a tracking number to know where it's at and when it's expected.
  • Shipping Carrier: All shipping is currently done with SpeeDee.
  • Shipping Costs: These are an average of quoted weight costs with age verification throughout Minnesota. The relatively small location makes it not matter so much. Over time, we'll be working on ways to reduce shipping costs, including volume pricing as we deliver more and alternative age verification options.
  • ​How to Buy: Visit any of the beer pages and add what you'd like. Currently available are the Amaizing, Gold Portage, Lost Bay, Hoppy Folly, Sand Bay, Drunken Loon, Black Swan, Merlin, and King Kong.

We look forward to your order.

Cheers,

Two New Beers that Pack a Punch, the King Kong Strong Ale & Merlin Gruit!

7/26/2018

The month of June was a time of some experimentation in the brewery, going after both the very strong and psychotropic arena's of beer and they're now decently carbonated and ready to serve!
King Kong
A very strong ale providing copious amounts of courage.
The Specs
  • SRM: 7
  • IBU: 9
  • ​ABV: 11.7%
​A full-bodied ale with a hefty 11.7% ABV. A nice beer to slowly consume as summer turns to fall.
The King Kong Strong Ale
Merlin
You can see the stars with this one, chock full of all sorts special herbs.
The Specs
  • SRM: 9
  • ​ABV: 6.4%
This gruit ale is full of what are called psychotropic herbs, those that can give a different inebriating effect than the standard alcohol. These include small amounts of wormwood, tansy, sage, mandrake root, mugwort, and yarrow.
The Psychotropic Merlin Gruit
Come on down to try them out, either with a flight, pint, or growler to go!

Cheers,
The Brewing Loony
