Draft Beer Update:

Port Hot Rocks Lager replaced Sprecher Special Amber. Port Brewing Hot Rocks Lager is a dark lager is brewed with the addition of glowing hot granite to the kettle. The addition of these Hot Rocks results in a vigorous “super boil” of sorts that caramelizes the sugars in the wort lending toffee, smoky caramel flavors to the beer that wouldn’t present themselves in a normal boil.

Desiato Hard Cider replaced 21st Amendment Bitter American. Desiato Hard Cider is a cider made with 5 different types of sweet apple and brown Bosce pears. It is made by long time friends of the Grey Lodge, Rich and Cary Smithson.

Brooklynner Weisse replaced Philadelphia Walt Wit. Brooklyner Weisse is a Bavarian-style wheat beer, that is unfiltered and full of spicy esters that evoke hints of cloves and fruit, some say even bananas.

Yuengling Bock Beer replaced Great Lakes Doppelrock. Yuengling Bock Beer is a dark beer brewed for early spring. It may be mid to late spring but who cares.
