Rams Head brings the “fun” to the plunge this weekend!

Parsons — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 16:24:09 +0000

This Saturday, January 28th, The Rams Head Group has committed to grin and “bear” it for the athletes of Special Olympics Maryland (SOMD) by taking a chilly dip into the Chesapeake Bay alongside 10,000+ other warm-hearted people. ( Crazy, of course!) So, in honor of the plungers this weekend, we’ve put together a little playlist to warm up your brave bones and thaw out those tootsies.

But, the fun doesnt stop right here. At the plunge, make sure you check out the Rams Head Ice Lodge/ Beer Garden. The tent opens at 8am and will be serving up great drinks and tons of rockin’ music beginning with Sticktime, and followed by the Eastern Shore’s favorite band, Hot Tub Limo. Then, we’ll turn things up a notch with multi-platinum rockers Fuel playing songs from their hit albums “Sunburn” and “Something Like Human” and end on a high note with high octane Celtic group The Rovers closing out the day.

Wait… did i say closing out the day? No way- The party might end at the Plunge. But, we’re moving the party to the Rams Head ( Rams Head Tavern Annapolis, Rams Head Shore House, Rams Head Roadhouse & Rams Head Tavern Savage). Stop by one of the Rams Head restaurants for the “Thaw Out” post plunge party from 4-7:00pm. Enjoy $3 Arctic Shooters, $4 Polar Bear Cocktails and $5 Plunge Bombs. WooHoo!

Good luck! And stay warm.

“Thaw” out at the Big Thaw Bock beer release party, February 2nd!

Parsons — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 19:24:20 +0000

It’s not easy being a beer lover…. but, let me tell you the news about the upcoming beer release at the Rams Head restaurants. The Rams Head will be jumping into February head first with the release of the “Big Thaw Bock“, brewed at the Old Dominion Brewing Company in Dover, Delaware. Its time to “Thaw” out from the winter, gather some pals and join us for the release on Thursday, February 2nd, 2012. During the release, Rams Head is offering $4.00 souvenir glassware with a fill-up of the new brew and refills are $1.00 during the 4:00-6:00pm release.

The recipe for the “Big Thaw Bock” was created by Brewmaster Walter Trifari of the Old Dominion Brewing Company. The final product is a 7.5% ABV. The Bock is a bottom- fermented golden lager that has a full-bodied mouth feel followed by a spicy citrus hop flavor and aroma. The beer will be available at Rams Head located in Annapolis, Crownsville, Stevensville, and Savage Mill, Maryland.

We asked our friends that follow us on twitter @RamsHeadGroup & our facebook friends, why they love attending the beer releases at the Rams Head. This is what they had to say….

“ Great and cheap way to enjoy awesome beer and great food with your friends!” says @KrisForinger

“I like seeing local friends, supporting local business and adding to my glass collection. Plus an affordable brew!” says @Good4thePalate

“Getting the cool glasses to keep and drinking lots of cheap delicious beers ” says Vanessa W.

“Friends, Music, the awesome glasses, and of course, the BEER! ” says Molly H.

“The beer … glasses are cool too” says E. Burton H

Patrons can relax and enjoy the new brew with the company of their friends and other beer lovers at the Rams Head.Big Thaw Bock is a perfect beer to enjoy as the chill of winter melts away and a new, lush world is revealed! See you February 2nd!!

Kick off 2012 with the Scotch Ale Beer Release Party!

Parsons — Fri, 16 Dec 2011 16:06:38 +0000

One of the best things about January is not the cold winter days, but the release of Fordham Brewing Company’s, Scotch Ale at the Rams Head restaurants. This year, come celebrate the release with us on Thursday, January 5th, 2012 from 4-6pm.

Mark your calendars, and get here early. Scotch Ale is always one of our most popular releases. This beer is exceptionally smooth and thoroughly robust, the Ale has a deep delicious flavor that will warm you down to your wee little bones.

The Rams Head will have limited edition glasses for the beer release. The special glass for Scotch Ale will be available for $4 at 4pm on release day. Patrons who purchase the glass also receive a fill-up of the Scotch Ale and $1 refills during the 4-6pm release party.

According to Walter Trifari, head brew master at Fordham Brewing Company, “This unique seasonal comes out just in time to warm your soul on those chilly winter nights. We brewed this beer with a touch of Beechwood smoked malt for a smooth & subtle smokiness that we know you’ll enjoy all winter. This beer also pairs well with smoked meats, salmon & buttery cheeses such as Gouda and Brie.”
