Rare Beer Tuesday (3/9)
As we do every Tuesday at 5pm, we’ll be tapping something extra special on the growler station! Our feature this week is one we have been eagerly awaiting ever since we first heard about a new barrel aging project coming out of Rogue Ales starting first with John John Dead Guy Ale! This unique and special creation is a very limited batch of their popular "Dead Guy Ale" aged in their own "Dead Guy Whiskey" barrels to achieve a deep honey color with a rich malty aroma and caramel, vanilla oak finish! Don’t miss this special opportunity!
As if the whiskey barrel aged Dead Guy from Rogue wasn’t enough, we will also be tapping COAST Brewing’s new batch of Boy King Double IPA on the growler station!! This was one of their most popular beers last year and people have never stopped asking when it will be back, so here you go! Sure to satisfy the hop lover’s cravings!
