Lagerhaus to release 44 Magnum

Lagerhaus, Pinellas County’s German-themed brewpub, puts unique house beers on tap all of the time. This Saturday, however, the brewpub will tap a very unique (and notably strong) beer for the first time in a while.

From Lagerhaus’s newsletter:

One of the handful of strongest (fermented***) beers in the world, the 44 MAGNUM’S 44 proof (22% ABV) is not only what is really impressive about this Ale. Its is the complexity and flavor explosion in your mouth what makes this beer putting you into a state of pleasure.
It took one year of fermenting and 2 years of aging in barrels,
to get being ready as Nectar for Zeus, and of course for YOU!

Lagerhaus is located at 3438 East Lake Business (East Lake Rd. South) in Palm Harbor.
