Boom Island Launch Party Tonight at Pig & Fiddle

Wow! Chalk another brewery in for Minnesota in 2011. Boom Island Brewing Company will be launching their first two beers tonight at Pig & Fiddle from 6pm ’til close! They will have their Silvius Pale Ale and Thoprock IPA available for your drinking pleasure. I’ve yet to try them, though as you’ll read on their website, they’re positioning themselves as a Belgian-style brewery with a dubbel & tripel to follow. We’ll share more info as we get it.

Best of luck to Minnesota’s newest brewery!
