New Half Acre Harvest Beer Coming Tomorrow
As boxes of sweaters come out of storage and Chicagoans mournfully discuss the passing of summer to fall, there is one thing we can all hang our sable hats on: Fall beers are here and they're delicious. Perhaps in the pantheon of seasonal brews they don't rank as highly as their dark, complex Christmastime brethren, but they're a welcome reprieve from the cruel injustices perpetrated by summer seasonals (we're looking at you Leinenkugel Summer Shandy). All that said, our friends over at Half Acre have informed us that they'll be tapping a new Fall concoction tomorrow. From their blog: "The goal was to lean on some rye malt with this beer with a flash of pilsner malt, back it up with some crystal hops and serve up our take on a harvest beer." We're not sure what most of that means, but it sounds great and we're there. The sweaters will be left at home in protest.
