New Brews From McCann's News

Our new Dark Seasonal is now on tap. Prairie Porter makes it's return this winter.

The Devil's Dream went over very well and will return at some point.

On Wednesday from 5-7pm we will be releasing our new Seasonal Red Sky Rye Ale. I'll be on hand to share a pint or two and answer questions.

Held to the light this brew displays a deep red hue. A light tan head clings to the sides of the pint glass. This ale is brewed with Special Pale Ale, crystal and Special B malts. Rye is also added to the mash for a subtle spicy flavor. Just enough British hops are added to the brew kettle to balance the layers of malt and contribute a low to medium bitterness. A great beer to gather your friends around here at the pub, or "to go" in a growler. 5% ABV.

Cheers,

Brewmaster Chris

On tap: Keg Hopped Deep Seven IPA(fresh hops are getting happy in the keg as you read this), High Bank Amber, Blacked Out Oatmeal Stout, Tripel Trouble and Sol. Hope to see you there!

More Patio Fun This Thursday!

I stashed away the last keg of Batch 100 a while back and now it's time to tap that sucker! This was our German Kotbusser style beer. I know of only one other brewery in the states to brew this style, so this may be your last chance to try it for a good while. We will also have grilled burgers and the like, all free with a donation to St. Cloud Youth Hockey. 4-7pm.

See you there,

Brewmaster Chris

Two New Seasonals!

We have our late summer seasonal Sol and our new dark seasonal Blacked Out Oatmeal Stout on tap now. We are also doing a short run of Raspberry Golden Wheat Ale on our Limited release line. Come celebrate the final days of summer with us!

Rye P.A. Back For a Limited Time

Our Deep Seven will be going on a VERY breif hiatus. In it's place will be a VERY limited run of Rye P.A.

If you didn't get a chance to try it last time, stop in soon before it's all gone.

Hope to see you all on the patio tomorrow-Free B.P.A. and BBQ for a donation to Freedom Flight. I'll be pouring and talking beer from 4-7pm.

Cheers, Brewmaster Chris
