More adventures with Jared and Steve.

This coming weekend, NABC's Jared Williamson will make the return trip to Benton Harbor, Michigan, and a date to brew with Steve Berthel at The Livery.

We are brewing the 5th Anniversary Ale, 12% 100+ IBU, that will debut at Great Taste of the Midwest alongside a 10-month-aged pin of Le Douche Mentale. We will brew on Friday, and then Saturday is Steve's birthday bash at The Livery.

There's my reason to return for this year's GTMW, which takes place on Saturday, August 14. That, and a couple hundred others.
