Draft Beer Update

Rogue Morimoto Soba Ale , Rogue's buckwheat beer is back. It replaced the first sixtel of Samuel Adams Old Fezziwig Ale. We have two more Fezziwig sixtels, which will go on after...

Roy Pitz Christmas Spirits (sixtel), which replaced Port Brewing Santa's Little Helper Bourbon Barrel Aged (sixtel). This Christmas beer from Roy Pitz is a new one. This sounds interesting: Christmas Spirits is a dark complex ale. Aromas of sweet orange, cardomon, nutmeg and cinnamon emerge in the begining. Flavors of roasted caramel, chocolate and biscuit emerge from the malts and is balanced nicley by the piney and pungent hops. Flavors of orange and blueberries and dark chocolate round out the finish! ABV: 6.7%

Weyerbacher Auriga is also back, replacing Samuel Adams Merry Maker. Auriga had to come off to make room for all those Xmas beers for Festivus. Auriga is a hoppy stout. Peeps were digging on it heavy while it was on. I don't expect it to last long.
