Mmm. Today is a good day for beer… Great Waters Brewing Company is releasing their Winter Carnival Ale today, served cask-conditioned. On this first day of Winter, they’ll be releasing “a ridiculously hopped Winter celebration ale.” The beer has been dry-hopped in the casks, too, so you can bet that the hops will give you a nice punch in the kisser.

According to their website, their Black Watch Oat Stout and Slapshot IPA are running low, so drink up. Also, it looks as if they have some dastardly creation called King Boreas Imperial Wit. It sounds like trouble, though I’m willing to bet that trouble tastes very good.
