Tue Apr 17th – Meet the Golden Road Brewing Night at FAR BAR – Presenting El Hefe Anejo

uscmike — Thu, 12 Apr 2012 18:02:57 +0000

Some months ago our friends over at Golden Road Brewing purchased a few used Tequila barrels from south of the border. They decided to take they’re flagship Golden Road Hefeweizen and age it for four months or so in those very barrels. We here at Far Bar had been anticipating the final product for some time from conception to visiting the brewery and getting to smell the aromas from these barrels mid-stage to now where we’ll tap one of the few kegs yielded from these barrels to sit back and enjoy with all of you “El Hefe Anejo”.

On tap this night:

El Hefe Anejo (Tequila Barrel aged GRB Hefeweizen)
Golden Road Hefeweizen
Get Up Offa That Brown
Either Side of the Hill (American Strong Ale)
Schwartz Stout (Dry Irish Stout)

and maybe one more.

Food Specials will be available and the GRB crew will be in the house to join all.

Event starts at 4pm and continues all night long.
