Ides of March
This past weekend signals the countdown to spring. Every year on the 4th Saturday of February, Capital brewery holds its annual Bockfest to launch their very popular Blonde Dopplebock. The brewery in Middleton, WI sets up an outdoor event with music, food and of course beer. This year I got to enjoy the festivities with 2500 other festivalgoers on a sunny Saturday afternoon.
As we enter the month of March it would be a great time to give you some great beers that are out for the Spring. Spring beers signal (hopefully) the beginning of spring. There are a number of great spring beers to try and here is a quick check list of beers that you may want to check out.
