New Batches of Brewtus Maximus Pale Ale

A double batch of Bretwus Maximus was created this morning starting at 4am.  We will have these in house in about three weeks – fresh as can be.  The smell of the hops as they are going in the kettle is delightfully spicy, herbal and fruity all together,  Mixed with the sweet, malty aromas of the grain – and you have beer heaven.

Jean Trimbach at Max Oyster Bar Next Week

While you are still deciding what to do for Valentine’s Day (we suggest a visit to one of our locations with your favorite person) consider attending this great dinner next week with one of our favorite wine producers, Jean Trimbach.

The Trimbach family has been making wine in Alsace since 1626, and we are very fortunate to have Jean Trimbach (pictured on  the left) and his family’s wines at the Oyster Bar for this dinner.  We will be featuring the classic wines of Trimbach along with some very special selections from their Grand Cru sites and Late Harvest sweet wines.  Executive Chef Scott Miller has prepared a very intriguing menu based in large part on ingredients found in and around Connecticut.  Join us for what should be a culinary winter highlight.

Special Valentine’s Day Cocktails at Max’s

All of our MAXologists have been working hard to create new and innovative cocktails to feature over the next few days leading up to Valentine’s Day. Each cocktail has a unique style created by the local bartenders at each of our locations, and most of them will be featuring Mionetto Prosecco, a lovely sparkling wine from Italy, as the main ingredient. Loads of fresh ingredients from raspberries to edible orchids are being used. Make your reservations today or just stop by one of our taverns for a great, original cocktail, such as Mike Mills’ “Downtown Love” from Max Downtown in Hartford.
