POURING TONIGHT Green City Market BBQ!
Summer Symphony 🍉🍋🍋‍🟩
This golden ale brewed with fresh watermelon, lemon, and lime juices is an incredibly refreshing summer b**r. Just enough tartness from the citrus to help the watermelon shine.
Strawberry Basil 🍓🍃
To this wheat b**r we add strawberries and the cooling flavors of basil, then push it further into the fruity and spicy realm with a classic hefeweizen yeast strain. The result is creamy, fruity and thoughtfully quenching.
Can’t wait to see everyone tonight!
