6 Brews for $6 from Great Lakes at Acadia Cafe

On Tuesday, August 21st Acadia Cafe will be offering flights of Great Lakes Beer for only $6! Get a 4 ounce pour of each of the following: Holy Moses, Wright Pils, Dortmunder Gold, Doppelrock, Lake Erie Monster & Rye of the Tiger! Or you can do pints of Holy Moses, Wright Pils, Dortmunder Gold & Doppelrock or 12 ounce pours of Lake Erie Monster & Rye of the Tiger for $4.

…and Summit Unchained #11 is…

Old 152. We don’t know a lot about this beer quite yet, though we do know that Summit brewer Eric Harper is tackling this one. According to the stats, it will fall just short of 6% abv.

Old 152, I presume, refers to the now-gone Minnesota State Highway 152, that once stretched between Minneapolis and St. Cloud.

More details as they become available.
