 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. Blue Moon Harvest Moon Comes out of the tap a beautiful clear copper, with not much head. Appetizing malty aroma has hints of spice, mainly cinnamon. Lively flavor is mainly malty with hints of hops and cinnamon, no real pumpkin flavor but still tasty. Texture is smooth and tingly. ABV-5.77% Pairs well with rocky mountain oysters. Boulder Cold Hop Wow what aroma. This beer pours a beautiful orange color with a very nice head. The aroma just pops out at you with citrus and pine. A very lightly malted beer with lots of hops. Boulder calls this beer a british ale however it is far from it in my opinion. ABV-6.5% Pairs well with most spicy foods. Bud American Ale I know its a bud product but give it a chance. The beer pours a nice copper color with a better then average head. The aroma is a little weak though. This beer tastes a little malty and a bit hoppy over all a nice attempt for bud. ABV-5.3% Pairs well with seafood or chicken. Long Trail Harvest Long Trail is new to our store and its arrival has been very well received. The harvest ale is a nut brown ale. This beer pours a beautiful brown color with a nice head. The smell is not typical of most brown ales. The aroma is loaded with raspberries. The taste is not far off from the smell. The berry taste comes right through. ABV- 4.6% Pairs well with bratwurst or roasted pork. |

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. |
