Winter Warmer

webmaster — Thu, 16 Feb 2012 18:36:37 +0000

This beer is rich, creamy brown in color. The aroma is of caramel malts, dried dark fruits and mild fruity yeast esters. The unique combination of grains and molasses create a rich and malty full-bodied beer that is balanced by the subtle flavors of rye and hops that lead into a slightly dry finish.

Blackfoot River Brewing Company’s Winter Warmer is brewed with Montana grown and malted 2-row pale malt, English Golden Promise malt, English Crystal malts, Iowa Flaked barley, Canadian Honey malt, English black malt, German malted rye, and American made blackstrap molasses.

Blackfoot River Brewing is very proud to be a part of the Helena Food Share celebration of Mardi Gras. As part of their annual fund raiser, Blackfoot brews our special Mardi Gras Red Ale.

This year we want to do more!

How can you help?

Simply by enjoying a pint or three, or a growler of Mardi Gras Red Ale.

I know, sounds tough, but we think our customers are people who will step up to the challenge.

For each two pints of Red Ale we will donate the equivalent of one can of food.

For each Growler fill of Red Ale we will donate the equivalent of two cans of food.Help us support local families in their time of need!

The Boulder Project will build an artificial boulder- a steel structure filled with concrete and finished with hand molded climbing features- in Centennial Park.

The City of Helena is providing the space, logistical support and some foundation work, but the cost of construction and installation must come from external sources.

The Boulder Project is looking to raise $25,000 by May 2012.

Blackfoot is supporting the Boulder Project through hosting a Community Monday.

Mardi Gras Red

webmaster — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 20:15:08 +0000

Every year the Blackfoot River Brewing Company makes a batch of the Mardi Gras Red Ale as a fundraiser for the Helena Food Share. This single batch of beer will generate over $1,000 for the Helena Food Share! With every pint you will be helping those in need in our community.

Red Ales are part of the Scottish Ale family. This would be considered a milder Scottish that’s not as malty, and has more of a hop presence. Expect the color to be a deep reddish brown. The aroma is of sweeter malts like caramel and toffee, with a hint of hops. The flavor has a moderate malty sweetness that leads into a dryer, slightly roasted finish.
