MONCTON, NB – The Atlantic Canada Beer Blog reports that Acadie-Broue will be launching a new beer this week named after an old Acadian tradition.
Mi-Carême Doppelbock (7.5% abv) is a “brown, malty, rich, strong German Lager” that takes it’s name from “an Acadian traditional day of celebration mid-way through Lent, where revelers would dress in costumes and disguises, and travel from door to door, visiting friends and family, and having their identities guessed.”
Mi-Carême will be released this Thursday February 1st with a launch event at 2nd Floor at Dolma Food (249 St George St., Moncton) from 4:30 to 7:30 PM. For more details, see the event listing on Facebook.
