Latest Music Purchases

Since I haven't blogged about music much, i figured I would list some of the things i am listening to now.  Just went to Grimey's on Tuesday and purchased: Stardeath and White Dwarfs- The Birth, Grizzly Bear - Veckatimest, Tortoise - Beacons of Ancestorship, and St. Vincent - Actor.  Also found an original copy of Plastic Ono Band on vinyl!  Been looking for that for a while.  Haven't had a chance to listen to a lot of the newer purchases, but so far they seem to be pretty cool.  Going out of town for the weekend.  Holla!

Lazy Magnolia Brewing Co. coming to Tennessee!

Apparently, Lazy Magnolia beer is coming soon.  Be on the lookout.  They have some pretty good beers.  Being a Mississippi native, I am pretty excited.  Their Southern Pecan Brown Ale is pretty interesting.  They also have a sweet potato cream stout that's brewed with sweet potatoes.  Haven't tried it though.  Not sure what all beers are coming, but am proud that Mississippi has a brewery and proud that it's coming to Tennessee!  Check it.

Sierra Nevada Kellerweis now in stores!

Just noticed Sierra Nevada's Kellerweiss yesterday at the 14th street market in Nashville off the corner of Woodland and 14th. If you haven't been there, they have a great selection of beer. Anyway, picked up a sixer of this and tried it out.

-Pours a hazy/cloudy golden color. The haze is due to the suspended yeast.

-The flavor, as it says on the label, is crisp, banana-y, and clove-like.

I am proud to see a hefeweizen added to the Sierra Nevada line. Of course, they have the wheat ale too which is pretty good. According to the Sierra Nevada website, this will be one of their year-round offerings. Also, be on the lookout for any Victory Brewing Company beers. According to http://nashvillebeergeek.blogspot.com/ Victory will start distributing their beers around Nashville around June 15th. Apparently, they are going to start with the Hop Devil IPA, their Prima Pils (their Pilsner), and Golden Monkey (a belgian tripel style ale). Exciting to see Tennessee getting new beers!
