A NEW GF BEER AVAILABLE IN BROOKLYN!
Park Slope's Bierkraft is now selling Lakefront Brewery's gluten-free New Grist beer (in from Wisconsin) in addition to Ramapo Valley Brewery's Passover Honey Beer. As of this post, six-packs of New Grist are selling for $10.99; Bierkraft sells the Honey Beer for $11.24 per six-pack.
Here you can watch two online commercials for New Grist.
If Park Slope, Brooklyn is out-of-the-way for you, Bierkraft may be able to mail the beer to your address.
And word has it that, in addition to Bard's Tale, two gf beers from the UK may become available in the USA in the near future!

BARD'S TALE HITS THE COMEBACK TRAIL!
It's happening. Again.
Not very long ago, Bard's Tale Beer made a splash with its gluten-free Dragon's Gold lager but the brewer soon ran into production problems and then things just fizzled out. Perhaps you remember hearing about the flat beer, the foaming beer, and the exploding bottles. Perhaps not.
Anyway, AP (via seattlepi.com) reports that the brew is making a comeback this month. The company is talking May. It seems that the goal is nationwide availability, but I'm not yet sure about the kind of distribution the brew will get in the New York metropolitan area.
