Fireman Cometh!

Tonight is one of my favorite days of the year. The tapping of the Fire Chief Ale at Rock Bottom Brewery in Downtown Minneapolis

This year, our Brewmaster’s masterpiece is a handcrafted Red Ale with an assertive hops character and subtle hints of caramel and chocolate.
A pint has never tasted better.

This is THE best specialty brew they make. and another sign that Spring is not too far away. The other great thing is that a portion of the sales go to help those in need:

As always, a portion of the proceeds from each pint of Fire Chief Ale sold from March 6-30 will benefit our local community partners . . . United Minneapolis Firefighter Charities and the Hennepin County Burn Center.

So 'The Doctor' and I will be bellied up enjoying a refreshing mug of hand crafted ale, while supporting our local community Firefighters. Stop by tonight if you are in the neighborhood. Festivities begin at 6:30 with free samples. Tell 'em Flash sent ya!

UPDATE: Welcome MinnPost readers (Blog of the Day, right sidebar). A special thanks to MN Post for acknowledging this worthy cause, and their support of yummy beer!!
