Hairy Cow Brewing Co.: Our New “Home for the Holidays” Libation Stop

❤️ Valentines Day Gift Idea ❤️
This week’s been a really rewarding one for me. A week of achieving goals and celebrating achieved goals.
Hi, my name is Katie and I’m doing dry January. Today marks 22 days without alcohol. It’s super humbling to admit that this is longest I’ve gone without a beer in a long time. But hot dang, I miss it! Not just the delicious flavor profiles, but the excitement and anticipation of trying a new beer. Even though it feels like I’m missing out at times, I’m crazy proud of the self control I’ve built up this month.
We’re well into the season of the year where big and boozy beers shine, and Minnesota’s @liftbridge just released another three for your consideration. Silhouette is an 11% ABV barrel-aged Imperial Stout described as “deep and dark as the Northern Woods” featuring aromas of coffee, molasses, chocolate and prune. Available in three variants: bourbon barrel-aged, Vanilla Bean bourbon barrel-aged and as Mission Fig and Orange aged in brandy barrels. Try it on tap or get yours to-go in 750ml bottles from the Stillwater taproom!
