Beer Education & Resources

Enhance your beer knowledge with our expert guides

What is ABV?

ABV (Alcohol by Volume) indicates the percentage of alcohol in the beer. Most beers range from 4% to 7% ABV, though some specialty styles can go much higher.

  • Session Beer (3-4.5%): Lower alcohol, easy drinking
  • Standard Beer (4.5-6%): Most common range
  • Strong Beer (6-9%): IPAs, Belgian ales
  • Imperial/Double (9%+): Strong stouts, barleywines
What is IBU?

IBU (International Bitterness Units) measures the bitterness from hops. Higher IBU = more bitter.

  • Low (0-20 IBU): Light lagers, wheat beers
  • Medium (20-45 IBU): Pale ales, ambers
  • High (45-70 IBU): IPAs
  • Very High (70+ IBU): Double IPAs
Why Freshness Matters:

Beer is best enjoyed fresh. Hops fade over time, affecting flavor and aroma, especially in IPAs and pale ales.

How to Check Freshness:
  • Look for dates: "Bottled on," "Best by," or "Enjoy by" dates
  • IPAs & Hoppy Beers: Best within 3 months of bottling
  • Stouts & Dark Beers: Can age well for 6-12 months or more
  • Lagers & Light Beers: Best within 3-4 months
Storage Tips:
  • Keep beer cool (below 50Β°F is ideal)
  • Store upright to minimize oxidation
  • Keep away from direct sunlight (UV damages beer)
  • Don't let beer get warm and cold repeatedly
Temperature Affects Taste:

Serving beer at the right temperature enhances flavor and aroma. Too cold mutes flavors; too warm brings out off-flavors.

Serving Temperature Guide:
  • Light Lagers (38-45Β°F): Very cold, crisp and refreshing
  • IPAs & Pale Ales (45-50Β°F): Cool but not ice cold
  • Wheat Beers (45-50Β°F): Slightly chilled
  • Stouts & Porters (50-55Β°F): Cellar temperature
  • Belgian Ales (50-55Β°F): Warmer to appreciate complexity
  • Barleywines (55-60Β°F): Almost room temperature

Pro Tip: If beer comes out too cold, let it warm in the glass for a few minutes.

Why Use the Right Glass?

Proper glassware enhances aroma, controls carbonation, and showcases the beer's appearance.

Common Beer Glasses:
  • Pint Glass: All-purpose, great for ales and lagers
  • Tulip Glass: Captures aroma, for IPAs and Belgian ales
  • Weizen Glass: Tall, for wheat beers to showcase cloudiness
  • Snifter: For strong beers, barleywines, imperial stouts
  • Pilsner Glass: Tall and narrow, showcases color and carbonation
  • Mug/Stein: Traditional, keeps beer cold longer
Pouring Tips:
  • Use a clean, rinsed glass (no soap residue)
  • Pour at an angle, then straighten to create 1-inch head
  • For wheat beers, swirl the last bit to get the yeast
What is Craft Beer?

Craft beer comes from small, independent breweries that focus on quality, flavor, and traditional brewing methods.

Key Differences:

Craft Beer:

  • Small batch production
  • Emphasis on flavor and quality ingredients
  • Creative, experimental styles
  • Locally owned and independent
  • Often more expensive ($9-20 per 6-pack)

Macro Beer:

  • Large-scale production
  • Consistency and drinkability focus
  • Classic, widely-known styles
  • Major corporations (AB InBev, MillerCoors)
  • Generally more affordable ($6-10 per 6-pack)

Both Have Their Place: Craft for flavor exploration, macro for easy drinking and budget-friendly options.

How Much Beer Do You Need?

General Rule: Plan for 1-2 drinks per person per hour for the first 2 hours, then 1 drink per hour after that.

Party Size Calculator:
  • 10 people (3 hours): 3-4 cases (72-96 beers)
  • 25 people (3 hours): 8-10 cases (192-240 beers)
  • 50 people (4 hours): 18-20 cases (432-480 beers)
Beer Selection Tips:
  • 70% Light/Easy Drinking: Lagers, light beers, seltzers
  • 20% Craft/Flavorful: IPAs, pale ales
  • 10% Specialty: Dark beers, unique options
Don't Forget:
  • Ice (1 lb per person)
  • Coolers or tubs
  • Bottle opener
  • Cups for those who prefer
  • Non-alcoholic options

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about beer? We're here to help

The main difference is the fermentation process:

Ales: Fermented at warmer temperatures (60-75Β°F) with top-fermenting yeast. Result: fruity, complex flavors. Examples: IPA, pale ale, stout, porter.

Lagers: Fermented at cooler temperatures (45-55Β°F) with bottom-fermenting yeast. Result: clean, crisp flavor. Examples: pilsner, helles, bock, American lagers like Budweiser.

Neither is "better" - it's just personal preference and style!

Beer freshness varies by style:

  • IPAs & Hoppy Beers: Best within 2-3 months. Hops fade quickly.
  • Lagers & Light Beers: 3-4 months for optimal taste
  • Stouts & Porters: 6-12 months, some age well even longer
  • High ABV Beers: Can age for years (barleywines, imperial stouts)

Always check the "bottled on" or "best by" date on the package. Store beer cold and upright for best results.

Absolutely! We're proud supporters of Tennessee breweries. Our local selection includes:

  • Yazoo Brewing (Nashville) - Dos Perros, Pale Ale
  • Blackstone Brewing (Nashville) - St. Charles Porter

Visit us or call (931) 378-7061 and we'll help you plan the perfect selection!

Hard seltzers are alcoholic carbonated water with added flavors. They've become incredibly popular as a lighter alternative to beer.

Key Differences:

  • Calories: Seltzers typically have 100 calories or less vs. 150+ for most beers
  • Carbs: Usually 2g or less vs. 10-15g in beer
  • Gluten: Most seltzers are gluten-free, beer is not (except gluten-free beers)
  • Flavor: Seltzers taste like flavored sparkling water, beer has malt/hop character
  • ABV: Similar (4-6% for both)

We carry top seltzer brands like White Claw, Truly, High Noon, and more!

Yes! We maintain a large cold case with popular beers ready to go immediately. Perfect for:

  • Last-minute parties or gatherings
