Newport Storm foRIster Beer Launch

IT'S BACK!!!

Derek and the amazing crew at Newport Storm have brewed another batch of Bobby's foRIster beer! From the What's Up Newport article, "Newport Storm is no stranger when it comes to brewing IPAs, but barrel aging a double IPA can be a tricky task. The biggest challenge is finding a way to preserve the juicy hop aroma and flavor that can dissipate over time due to oxidation. The late addition of Cascade, Citra (Bobby’s favorite) and Motueka hops were key in crafting this brew that boasts of orange, grapefruit and nectar fruits. Canada pale malt and malted wheat give foRIster a golden hue and 3 months of barrel aging leave a slight oak finish on the palate." You can read more from that same article here.

Sunday April 8th, 2018 5pm - 9pm

$20 Door Fee includes, beer samples, light food, and a foRIster koozie. 

22 oz bottles of foRIster will be available for purchase that evening, but will be limited to 3 bottles per guest. Bottles of foRIster will be on sale throughout Rhode Island, Connecticut and Pennsylvania.
