If you’ve been by the store recently, you may have visited our new beer cellar. We’re really excited about it over here at Cool Springs Wines & Spirits. As you walk in the store, just head directly to your left.

It’s currently located where Frank’s Value Cellar used to be. But don’t worry! Frank’s value wines are still located in that general location. The truth is that Frank’s Value Cellar outgrew that location and needed a little more room to spread its wings. The leftover space was perfect for a beer cellar.

Why a beer cellar? For those of you new to the interesting beer laws in Tennessee, it breaks down like this. To sell any beer above 6.2% alcohol, you must have a liquor license. Thus you can’t find many of the best beers available in grocery or regular beer stores. To get the best IPAs, seasonals, stouts, barley wines, meades, porters, Belgians, bocks, etc…you have to go to a bar or a liquor store like Cool Springs Wines & Spirits.

If you’re a beer lover, you must stop by and see our selection. It keeps getting bigger and brighter every day.

FEATURED BEER REVIEW
Updated September 7, 2010

Schlafly Biere de Garde Lips of Faith Belgo
Lips of Faith Belgo is a Belgiun style IPA that pours a clear, bright orange color with a nice off white head. Its aromas consist of citrus, malt and spice. Its medium, creamy body tastes of spice, mangos, and some lemon. I think this is a good brew for anyone to try because it is balanced and overs many flavors across many spectroms. New Belgium uses Amarillo, Williamette Simcoe, Cascade, and Chinook hops to get many flavors and aromas to balance with the big tropical Belgiun yeast. This brew is priced right at $5.99 for a 22oz bottle so it is affordable and very easy to approach.
