Here are the crafty concoctions below. I haven't received the actual names of them, but the styles show they are very serious!:
• Barrel-aged Strong Ale -- brewed by Great Lakes Brewing Co. and Cellar Rats Brewery.
• Alt Bier -- by Cornerstone Brewing Co. and Buckeye Brewing.
• Rye Kolsch -- by Willoughby Brewing Co. and the Brew Kettle.
• Smoked Black Lager -- by Thirsty Dog Brewing Co. and Indigo Imp Brewery.
• Imperial American Porter -- by Hoppin' Frog Brewery and Rocky River Brewing Co.
• Wet Hop IPA -- by Fat Head's Brewery and Black Box Brewing Co.
Hopefully other states including Georgia (a-hem!) catch on and do this as well!
Holla!
