Gravity Head lineupdate for Wednesday, March 12.

Schlafly's local rep Scott Shreffler will be at the Public House tonight at 6:00 p.m. for a special promotion with his Schlafly Imperial Stout (10.5% abv). While supplies last, and first-come, first-served, we'll be pouring Schlafly Imperial Stout in 16-oz signature glasses at the pint prince, and you get to keep the glass. This is a rare exception to the 10-0z pour rule during Gravity Head, so come and take advantage of it.

Note also that our only two kegs (this year) of Schlenkerla Fastenbier, the Brauerei Heller-Trum's special annual Lenten smoked lager, began pouring today. Fastenbier is 50% smoked malt and 50% Pilsner malt, and it needs to be gone by Easter Sunday (March 23). Somehow, I don't think that's going to be a problem.
