April Showers Bring May Flowers but June Brings Back Favorite Beer
June marks the return of Dovetail's brews: the Grodziskie (just for the summer) and Vienna Lager.

Named after the town in Poland where it was first brewed, the Grodziskie is a 100% smoked wheat beer with light, citrus-like overtones and a surprising hint of spice and smoke in the back notes. Pale straw in color, with a feisty effervescence, it is more carbonated than Dovetail's Hefeweizen and lower in alcohol (3.8%). Grodziskie is served with a lush head of foam that laces the glass beautifully with every sip; this beer is the perfect refreshment during a hot summer day.

The Vienna Lager is copper in color with a warm, malty character. Brewed with 100% Vienna malt and Styrian Golding hops, this lager has a higher alcohol content, at 5.1%, than the Grodziskie.
