    Too bad this wasn't larger scale, as I would have supported 'the cause' behind this one.

    Anyone have a link to the article saying they were only selling bottles for on presmise consumption? I've tried looking over at The Full Pint and couldn't find it.

    I love the KRVT, so I'm really hoping to be able to try this and support the trail. I've been running on it a few times a week for the past month. Such an awesome resource for people in Kalamazoo.

    Maybe this will be sold during the Bell's to Bell's bike ride, also benefiting the KRVT?

    I confirmed with David Curtis, General Store manager. He and his store team actually brewed the beer. 5 Gallon batch, smallest batch of Bells beer ever. Total count 49 bottles. Larry gets two and the rest will be sold without any announcement at the Eccentric Cafe. The bottle will be poured for consumption on site only. Came in around 5.3 %, Amber Ale with pumpkin and peach. Pumpkin was cut up, baked, and added to the mash, after fermentation, racked off onto peach puree for another week. Beer is bottled as of 4-21 and waiting on labels to arrive.

    Well, there you have it. Having worked in the General Store, that's really cool that they got to brew that.

    They had this at the cafe today at lunchtime. Sold out pretty quick.
