Two East Coast Black Beauty's Released

My buddy Andrew Cooper of Propeller Brewing Co. forwarded me a press release today regarding the launch of their annual seasonal, Revolution, their Russian Imperial Stout.

I reviewed the Revolution back in March of 2008 and just re-reading my post has me looking forward to the newest batch. I plan on doing a vertical with the 8% RIS sometime this winter as I have bottles dating back to 2007.

The beer was released today and will be available at the brewery and at select private retail stores in Halifax.





Another Halifax brewery released their winter seasonal last week as Garrison brought back a tweaked version of their annual Grand Baltic Porter, the beer that scored 94/100 last year at the World Beer Championships.

Some friends were over on the weekend and we polished off two year old bottles and left me with none; however, a box arrived the other day from Garrison and I was thrilled to see the Porter inside.

Available at the brewery and at select private retail stores in Halifax.

Two great beers for the cold months of winters fury. Don't miss out.
