Beer Boys, the Wilkes-Barre bar and restaurant that features the area’s largest draft selection with 72 beers on tap, will be celebrating 16 years in business with 16 highly sought-after beers on tap by Founders Brewing Company on Sunday, Jan. 24, starting at 2 p.m. Every day for the next 16 days, we’ll be revealing each beer that will be available and reviewing them all leading up to the event!

Beer: Harvest Ale

Brewery: Founders Brewing Company

Style: American IPA

ABV: 7.60%

IBU: 70

This wet-hopped ale pours a hazy golden color with a foamy white head, instantly smelling of citrus and hops. The orange, lemon, and toasted malts come through in the medium mouthfeel, highlighted by the grassy, slightly piney hops bounding around the medium carbonation.

This juicy drink ends with a dry finish that invokes the crisp fall air of harvest time with a bitterness that reminds you that winter is right around the corner.

Beers will be available to sample individually in a five-ounce glass, build a paddle of four five-ounce samples, or as individual pints. Prices will vary.
