The Porter’s “Where The Wild Beers Are”
The Porter Beer Bar in Atlanta hosts an interesting and awesome tap takeover Friday nights in January. The takeovers have a particular theme in mind. This Friday’s theme is Michigan. (Beers from the state of). I think you will be happy with the lineup –
Bell’s Batch 10,000, Founder’s Backwoods Bastard, Dirty Bastard, Breakfast Stout. Great lineup for sure – but there are 6 more RARE kegs. They are extremely hard to come by in Georgia. (You might even say, not possible). Here is a hint – The Fresh Prince. No, not Philadelphia. We are talking about Michigan here geniuses. Can’t figure it out? I guess you’ll just have to head to The Porter on Friday…
