FBC & BMBC Present: Return of The Freaky Firkins!

FBC & BMBC Present: Return of The Freaky Firkins!

Halloween is the time of year where many adorn horrific, funny or sexy personas, and get together to party the night away. The heat is gone, the weather is cooling and many people act a little bit out of the ordinary. So many different spices, smells and tastes come around at this of time of year, which is a change from light and zesty flavors of the hot summer months. When one thinks of  the type of beers brewed for Halloween, the line “Double, double toil and trouble; Fire burn, and caldron bubble” from Macbeth comes to mind.

Freaky Firkins

We decided what better way then to celebrate this unearthly of holidays, then to team up with our friends at Barley Mow Brewing Company, out of Largo, FL, and bring you an event full of ghoulish grog, sinfully delicious food and of course, devilish fun! The return of Freaky Firkins is upon us! This Thursday join us and BMBC in Largo, FL from 7-Midnight! We will be pouring 7 “deadly” Halloween inspired firkins and one-off beers, along with amazing eats from Maggie on the Move food truck!
