What's on Tap - Friday Beer Tasting at the Wine Center

Ok, it's last minute, but here's what will be available for tasting this afternoon from 4 to 7 at the Brown Derby Wine Center. Eric Carter gave me a brief rundown of the beers, but he's pretty hectic getting ready for the Craft Beer Fest on May 21st.

Ska Brewing's Mexican Logger - A seasonal beer, it is designed for easy drinking in the summer.

Free State Brewing's Copperhead Pale Ale - Hops are good.

Lagunitas Undercover Shutdown Ale - anything from this brewery can be considered worthy of a taste. This one's a very good beer.

He also mentioned a cool Helles Bock which was dry-hopped for 8 days with Saphir hops. I've never tried Saphir hops, but 8 days makes a hoppy and flavorful beer. It will definitely be worth trying.

Let us know your thoughts on these beers by leaving a comment. If you try the Helles, let us know what it's called, as well, since I won't be able to make it to the tasting tonight.

Enjoy your beer.

Update - the Helles Bock is from Hofstetter.
