About this event

Join us Friday, November 6th, for the return of Weather Beacon Red!

Weather Beacon Red Doppel Märzen (LAGER BEER) 8.5% ABV

This “winter warmer” brew is named in honor of the Weather Beacon, a 500-foot tower that accented Des Moines' skyline from 1960 to 2012. The beacon’s light provided an instant forecast: "Weather Beacon red, warmer weather ahead. Weather Beacon white, colder weather in sight. Weather Beacon green, no change in weather foreseen. Weather Beacon flashing night or day, precipitation is on the way.” A bigger, bolder version of our Oktoberfest beer, our Weather Beacon Red is a rich, complex, medium-toasted malty lager with a residual sweetness that comes from the addition of locally sourced Iowa honey. While the lights on the tower have gone cold, a glass of our Weather Beacon Red is a perfect choice when you are bundled up and keeping warm.

Enjoy a glass in the taproom and don't forget to grab a 4-pack to take home to enjoy. Distribution across Iowa will begin on Monday, November 9nd.
