Beer of the Month: April 2019

Happy April! We are showcasing a brewery that just began distributing to the Bay Area - Fremont Brewing out of Seattle, Washington. They specialize in all styles of beer but are best known for their barrel-aged offerings. So popular amongst the beer community that when we put some of their beers for sale in the beginning of April, the beers sold out in MINUTES! Lucky for you, no waiting in line, no rushing to purchase online, I saved one of those special barrel-aged beers for you. Also included are some of the easier drinking, session-able beers they produce.

Cheers!
