Bru and U-Bahn Break Out Rare, Sour Beers and Stouts Galore for Sour Bowl II and Stout Bowl I, Jan. 31

If you like sour beers, get ready for a tap list that is going to blow your mind. Scratch that. If you like beer--tart, malty, dark, hoppy--any kind of beer, this tap list will still blow your mind.

Brü Craft & Wurst has spent the last year stockpiling some of the best craft beers from far and wide. On Sunday, January 31, Brü will tap all 32 kegs of awesome, rare beer for Sour Bowl II. This year, 28 lines will be dedicated to sour and wild ales and four will be dedicated to IPAs. U-Bahn, Bru's sister bar that is located downstairs/nextdoor, is also getting in on the action this year by tapping 14 amazing stouts and a firkin on Troegs Nugget Nectar.  

Kegs will be tapped at 11 AM, and all beers are on a first come, first served basis. Pours will be limited to one per draft per person at a time, in an effort to allow everyone a chance at everything they would like to try. But enough talk, here’s the tap list:
