Be early, the beers have all gone quickly at past cask nights. Big Boss, Duck Rabbit, and Foothills have all hosted a special cask night at Raleigh Times.
Derek from Bell’s Brewery in Michigan will be here to help pour and talk about his beer. We will start pouring from the cask @6PM. There will be one cask of the Bell’s porter, which they feel is their best beer in a cask, as well as Bell’s Hopslam on draft.
Bell’s Brewery describes the porter as:
A robust porter for all occasions. A blend of dark malts give this beer flavors of coffee and chocolate with subtle roasted notes.Gold medal winner in the Brown Porter category Brewers Association World Beer Cup 2008.
