Comet Shower by Bad Weather Brewing

There are some breweries that I visit a lot, and I tend to try a new beer, then switch over to my longtime favorite. Funnily enough, I don’t usually write about those favorites! This, friends, is one of them. A crisp, citrusy, slightly bitter pale that is easy to drink, not too high in alcohol content and coolest of all, made with Minnesota grains and locally grown Comet hops. It’s almost always on tap at the West Seventh taproom, too, which is one of my favorite hangouts. Stay tuned for details about this year’s Pioneer Press Treasure Hunt Beer release, which will again be held at the brewery. We had a great time last year and hope to see you all again.
