Growler list update for Monday

In addition to our permanent tap of Boneyard's totally amazing,hop Venom, we just put on Laurelwoods's Thai Basil Wit which is very delicious. Perfect for a sunny day like today. You can taste the Thai basil and it is balanced nicely with the coriander and orange zest. Very thirst quenching! We also have Caldera's dry hop orange pale ale, Elysians's Immortal IPA, and Vertigo's big bottom bourbon barrel aged stout. This is a very sessional stout balanced just right with the bourbon oak.

Cheers!
