New Cans from Martin House Brewing

Martin House Brewing (Fort Worth, TX) has released two new cans this week – River House Saison, and Pretzel Stout.  

Pretzel Stout: Made with a large quantity of sourdough pretzels, this new spin on a traditional stout is as black as oil with a gradually evolving roasty and salty malt flavor. It’s almost like you are drinking a pretzel.
 
River House Saison: Floral, citrus, spicy notes complimenting a crisp, very dry, almost champagne-like mouth feel. It’s the perfect session beer delivering tons of flavor in a very “light” beer.
 
Both offering are available in 12oz cans. Those looking – see this off-premise customer map.
