WHAT:
Barley’s is hosting a weeklong celebration in honor of National Bubba Day with its kickoff party on the day itself. In addition to the celebratory tapping and release of Bubba’s Hopped Up Lager, the brewery will also offer $2 shorts (12-ounces) of the seasonal brew from Monday, June 2 through Sunday, June 8.
Bubba’s Hopped Up Lager is just like it sounds – a hopped up Amber lager. In brewing this, Bubba has taken Barley’s signature beer Red Rock, and added a twist to suit his own taste buds – it is National Bubba Day after all. He has increased the alcohol by volume to 8 percent and doubled the amount of bittering hops used to enhance the hoppy flavor as well as dry hopped the beer to give it a pleasant hop aroma.
