A Great Website/Service for Beer Lovers



In case you haven't seen it, this website offers us an idea of what is available in bars and
restaurants ahead of time. You can access them through this site or often times the place itself will have the beer menus listing on its own site.

The list gets regularly updated, which is really nice, and it covers the selections well. For example, the Metropolitan guys have talked about Fountainhead bar in the city, and on its website it not only has a listing of the beer that is available, which some restaurants don't even do, but it is linked through Beer Menus. See here.

As you can see, you can buy a bottle of 3 Fonteinen Schaerbeekse Kriek, for the low price of $40 a bottle. Just because I personally think anyone who would spend $40 for a bottle of beer, especially cherry beer, needs to get his head examined, hopefully this will not steer people away from the place. Especially since there are an additional ton of good beers on the menu.

Then, when you click on the name, it will show you where else it is available on the beer menu subscription and at what price. So, with this, you can see that you can buy the 3 Fonteinen at a different bar in the city for $5 more a bottle!

This is a really nice feature, I think, especially for those wacky people who like to blog about what they had last night, especially if it is a Midwest beer. Don't worry, I won't be reviewing the 3 Fonteinen. It is Belgian.
