Fitger’s 750s

Fitger’s continues to throw the gauntlet down (what ever the hell that means, but it seemed appropriate). In addition to their regular weekly releases–Champagne of the North, Brewhouse Pub Ale, and Blueberry Lager, it’s time for a couple more 750ml releases. Their bourbon barrel Imperial Stout is quite bourbon-y, and the Framboise sounds pretty incredible, with a 17 year old lambic added to the fermentation! Get up north and get yours!
