*  BE ON THE LOOKOUT FOR YOUR INVITATION

We'll be hosting another private, e-mail list only tasting at the brewery
on a Friday afternoon sometime in the very near future.  This time, we'll
be introducing the newest additions to the Flying Fish family! Watch your
e-mail for your invitation.

*  FARMHOUSE SUMMER ALE IN BOTTLES MORE & MORE

Our Farmhouse Summer Ale, hugely enjoyed on draft over the last three
summers is now our first seasonal bottled beer.   If you're interested in
trying it, act quickly--it's been three years in the making but will only
be available for the the summer months. It's also available in half kegs
and torpedo mini-kegs (5.2 gallons). If you don't see it, ask your local
retailer for it.

*  TRENTON MAKES, THE WORLD TAKES

Trenton is not only the capital of NJ, it also has a couple of great beer
bars that feature Flying Fish, including Joe's Mill Hill (which is the only
place in the universe that has all available styles of Fish on draft) and
the Urban Word.  The Urban Word Cafe at 449 South Broad Street, directly
across from the new arena, will host an "Introduction to Trenton"
Thurdsday, June 15 from 5:30 to 7:30.  This event is fun, informal and
intended for people who want to find out more about Trenton, or who are
considering moving to Trenton and who want to learn about the
neighborhoods, the culture, the schools, the restaurants and the
businesses.  Trenton residents will be available to talk about their
neighborhoods and experiences.	Representatives from the schools will talk
about the educational system.  Artists, business owners, civic leaders,
etc. will talk about the exciting developments in the city.  Realtors will
be available to discuss a wide range of housing options.

--June 25 (Sunday) 4th Annual Garden State Brewers Festival
Come kick off the first-ever American Beer Month at the 4th Annual Garden

the state, was chosen because it's equally inconvenient for everyone in the
state to get to. Actually, it's a beautifully restored farmstead with lots
of room to stretch out. Beers from 13 NJ breweries, food, complimentary
tasting glass and lots of music. Last year's event sold out so don't put
off getting tickets.
Waterloo Village, Stanhope, NJ
Noon - 5pm
