Looking for an awesome late-summer sipper to enjoy around the campfire? Treat yourself to the limited-release ROWDY MONK from Hermit Thrush Brewery!
Once a year (or less), we receive a small amount of this captivating barrel-aged sour brown quadrupel from the wizards of sour beer down in Brattleboro, Vermont. Beginning its life as a strong dark ale, this massive beer is mellowed by spending 12 months in wine barrels. At 14.5% ABV, Rowdy Monk is no crushable sour, and that’s perfect. It’s the ideal match for cooler late summer evenings, camping trips, and quiet contemplation (though we can’t promise things won’t get rowdy!!)
Rowdy Monk pours a deep amber brown, with a very light coffee-colored head that dissipates quickly. Notes of cocoa, woodsmoke, dark fruit and caramelized oranges tingle your nose. On the palate, the beer has assertive sourness that melds with flavors of maple toffee, dates and raspberries. It has a fine, dry mouthfeel and long finish, with lingering tartness.
Check out our cans! Doing a little rearranging in our VT beer coolers (we have multiple other VT beer doors to the left) today… fresh & aged VT beer – get ’em while you can!
It’s Hop Jam so we’re having a huge beer release including beer for hundreds of people!
Be here early or on time and get your paws on some of VT’s most sought after IPA’s in addition to other unique, fun, and delicious brews we’re releasing!

What you get depends where you are in line and there is a limited amount of some of these brews.
Release starts at 10a sharp, may the odds be with you!
We work hard all year to consistently supply you with some of the tastiest and sought after beers, this weekend, we help celebrate Vermont’s biggest beer event with great drops all weekend as well as our annual cave release!
Our commitment to the community and craft beer world was recently exemplifiedwhen we spearheaded the” Make The Cut Homebrew” contest and catapulted a local Vermont home brewer into the professional brewing realm.
The winner was Brett Seymour from Warren, VT for his Schwarzbier he brewed at 14th Star Brewery.
“Salute Your Schwarz” is now for sale here at the Bevie and in your favorite local bars, restaurants, and retail shops, incredible!
Being the largest beer / wine / liquor store in the state, we are able to acquire certain brews not available to the general craft beer community and we do everything we can to make some of the most exciting and delicious brews available to locals and beer hunters who make the pilgrimage to our beautiful state.
This includes working around everyone’s schedule from 10 AM to 8 PM drops to get the goods to your paws and smiles on your faces.
We are so very proud of what Vermont has to offer! We are the state of makers!
The rippling effect the craft beer industry has on our friends and neighbors in local businesses is fantastic and we’re glad to be a part of this positive movement.
( Basically, we like to show Vermont off.)
Having over 40 breweries in Vermont, you have a lot to choose from.
So, without further adieu, here is our release schedule!

One 4pk per person of each style while supplies last – I can tell you these will go fast and are incredible. I can’t wait until we get more. Because of all the beer-ness we’ve got going on over here, these are next to our ‘Schlitz & Giggles’ sign as indicated by the red dot. Enjoy! (I know I did)
Brattlebeer
Style: Sour Ale
ABV: 5.2%
$10.99/4pk
Inspired by the town of Brattleboro, the unique sour ale captures the best of local flavors. Brattlebeer is slightly tart, light bodied and dry with both fruity and malty undertones, and a rocky, champagne-like head. Fermented spontaneously with a blend of local apple cider, malt, and hops, this delicate pale ale pairs well with soft cheeses and herbal entrees, and often compliments seasonal fruit desserts. Green Street SIPA
Style: Sour India Pale Ale
ABV: 6.8%
$12.99/4pk
Our Green Street Sour IPA is the sour take on the beloved hop-centric beer Vermont is known for. We focus on a balance of hop and malt flavors with a citric tang from a few days of kettle souring. It’s not the jolt to your taste buds that our Flemish Sour Brown provides, but it certainly has a powerful, tart presence to support its hoppiness. We use 100% locally sourced hops from our neighbors at Four Star Farms for their truly excellent aroma and flavor. Are you ready for a new approach to an old style?
