After months of waiting, the in-house beers at The Blind Pig Brewery will be ready for the tasting on Tuesday.
The second location, 120 N Neil St., in downtown Champaign, opened in May, features a large outdoor beer garden, but the in-house brewery has faced delays in getting up and running. The brews are finally ready, though, and a release party will be held from 3 p.m. to 2 a.m., according to The Blind Pig’s Web site.
The first beers to be served will be a Kölsch, hefeweizen, India Pale Ale and hard cider. Oatmeal stout, English Bitter and Weizen Bock will be the next styles to be served.
