Re: Great Lakes

http://greatlakesbeer.com/index.php/last-call-for-lake-effect-ipa/ The last canning of Lake Effect for the year happened yesterday. I get that it's a tank 10 beer, so it's only going to be around occasionally, but that's at least 10 more months! I wonder if they couldn't source the hops for it this...

Re: 3RD ANNUAL GLB HOLIDAY TAP TAKEOVER - WOOLWICH ARROW

Re: Great Lakes

Ooooh, nice. I wish they'd update all of their social media accounts when they announce releases like this. I generally miss some because I don't check Twitter/Instagram/Facebook religiously throughout the day and things get lost in the flood of other posts. Not to be cheeky, but we did... :D Insta...
