Big news from Brewmaster Nic Grau at Maple Island Brewery, 225 Main St
N, in Stillwater, MN. He has brewed a firkin (10 gallons) of Kolsch (a
white German beer) with crushed rose hips and a pound of wildflower
honey from Betsy, as well as a full 250 gallon batch of ESB - now known
as "ESB-hive" with 60 pounds of honey from Jim and Wendy at Nature's
Nectar. The firkin is about half gone as of 5/20/15 with great customer
reviews. The ESB-hive is conditioning in the fermenter and will be
available soon. Check the Maple Island website for its release date. No
growlers of the Kolsch because it's a small batch, but consider sipping
some honey infused local beers from Nic at Maple Island while you enjoy
springtime along the St. Croix!
Come.On.Down!
Cheers, from Betsy!
