It’s not very often we hope for tons of snow, but this might make us think twice!

As the snow falls, so does the price of Busch.

For every inch of snow that accumulates in your state this season, we’ll take $1 off your Busch (up to $30, excluding sales tax). We promise not to flake on you. Stock up now and learn more at busch.com/snowday (Promotion applies to IA, MI, MN, ND, NE, NY, and WI)

WET sighting at Lakeridge Golden Valley. Get it while you can (no pun intended)

09/20/2013

WET has landed at Lakeridge VH. Still awaiting word on GV.

09/19/2013

The rumor is confirmed! Our one case ration of WET will hit the shelves at both GV and VH on Friday. While it would be a delicious part of any post-apocalyptic stash (assuming you could keep it fresh), we hope it's not an essential component of your doomsday prepping!

09/13/2013

Surlyfest arrived at Lakeridge VH! Hurry though, our 2 case ration of 4-packs isn't going to last long!

09/12/2013

Hope to see you all next Friday!

Two tastings this week at Lakeridge VH... Thursday from 4 - 7 is all-natural Cayman Jack Margaritas (NO high fructose corn syrup or artificial sweeteners!).
