 In June of 1965 Link Beverages was established. The owners were Thelma Natalie Link and Granville Marshall Link. They operated the business out of a 1200 square foot store front on the bottom of a two story house. their son Skip was working at the Bethlehem Steel Company at the time. Skip would help his parents on the weekends. Thelma and Granville wanted to sell the business after a short time. Skip and his wife Dottie purchased the business from their parents. Two years later the business was relocated one mile south of the original location. Late at night after work Skip would lay in the garlic field behind the store, sipping on a beer. Staring up at the stars he'd close his eyes and dream of having a huge beer store one day. Today he lives that dream. His 8000 square foot retail location was established in 1974. The business has grown since that time. Link Beverages is now one of the largest retail beer locations in the Lehigh Valley. Link Beverages stocks hundreds of different styles of beer from crafts to microbrews to imports to domestics.  -- Thanks for your interest. Not a member? Find out more ... |

 A review of the beers currently featured at our Sample Taps. Ommegang Hennepin Ommegang Hennepin As you pour this rich golden ale into your glass, consider your surroundings. Is it hot and humid? Cold and brisk? Take a drink. Feel the way Hennepin is bright and lively in your mouth with a warming mix of spicy gingersnap and citrusy hops. Refreshing. Relaxing. It\\\'s true: no matter where you are, this is the perfect ale for all seasons. The first taste on the tongue is that off some light hops followed by some light citrus; lemon rind, apricots, maybe some orange. It finishes clean, dry, and with a slight tartness. Food Pairings: quiche, fresh water fish, shellfish, and sushi. The coriander and ginger notes go well with Asian cuisine. ABV 7.7% BREWERY LOCATED IN COOPERSTOWN, NY STEGMAIER WINTER WARMER Description The Lion Brewery is proud to offer you Stegmaier Winter Warmer.

Beer should always be served with two fingers of head, at a temperature of 40°F, but never in a frozen glass, because the melting of the interior film of ice adds water. The head should be delicate yet persistent, so that it adheres to the glass. It should have a bright color and a frothy appearance. |
