A tiny bit citrusy, a tiny bit spicy -- it's our tonight-only dried ginger and dried orange peel and Blonde Ale concoction! This picture shows how full the infuser is at the moment. It's packed! Sorry, no crowlers/growlers on the Randall beers.

Our tonight-only infusion experiment is a shout-out to Brewer Jake's mom, Peggy, who makes crazy good chocolate chip banana bread. Hefeweizen has a touch of banana in taste and aroma already, so we are adding chocolatey cacao nibs to it and will see what we get! Will it be as good as Peggy's banana bread? Try some tonight to find out! (No crowler/growlers of the Randall beers.)

Back on tap tonight due to popular demand is our Bavarian Hefeweizen! A traditional German wheat beer brewed with over 50% wheat malt and a distinctive hefeweizen yeast, this hazy brew has a fluffy mouthfeel and a mix of clove and banana flavors. Perfect for the last weeks of summer. 4.0% abv - 12 ibu

We had such a good time with our sold-out Iowa Cheese Flight Night we're doing it again -- this time with Wisconsin cheese! We're pairing four delicious cheeses from around Wisconsin, "America's Diaryland", with four taster size Fat Hill Brewing beers. Different flavors in the cheeses bring out flavors in the beer you may not have noticed before. It's a fun way to re-learn a beer you're already friends with ...and an easy way to try new ones. Your $20 ticket price includes the cheese flight and accompanying beers (four types of cheese/four beers) and a few crackers/fruit/nuts as well to refresh the pallet in between tastings. No substitutions. Tickets are required for this event. Walk-in requests for cheese flights unfortunately cannot be fulfilled. Due to space restrictions in the brewery and cooler, we are selling exactly 50 tickets and no more, so if you're interested we suggest you buy now. (If you're wondering why half the tickets are already gone, it's because we announce ticketed events to our newsletter subscribers first. Follow this link to subscribe to the newsletter to have first dibs in the future! http://www.fathillbrewing.com/email-list/) Come in any time we're open on Wednesday, August 30 to claim your goodies! We open at 4 PM and close at 11 PM, so please come not later than 10 PM so you have enough time to enjoy your flight at a relaxed pace. Ready to reserve your spot?

Toni of Toni's Tarot here in Mason City will be spending a few hours in the tap room on September 6 for casual come-when-you want tarot card readings. If you've ever seen these cards in action in movies or TV, this is event is an easy, fun way to cross the experience off your bucket list! "Tarot can enlighten you about the choices you have," says Toni. "The cards don't tell you what you should do or what specifically is going to happen in your future, but rather illuminate the possibilities depending on the path you take." 15 minute reading - $15 Quick one card reading - $5 Payment is made at the time of the reading directly to Toni (cash or credit). Check in at the bar when you arrive as their might be a short waiting list. We'll come get you when it's your turn. Can't come on September 6? Toni will also be at the River City Festival on September 16. She schedules appointments for other times via her voicemail at 641-512-8568.

Big day today in the tap room! Jeremy Jewell will start playing at 2PM and at noon The Lunch Wagon begins serving philly cheese steaks, bacon mac & cheese, and (Fat Hill American Wheat!) beer braised brats. They'll be parked outside just until they run out of food, so come soon!

A quick reminder that tomorrow afternoon is our free concert featuring Jeremy Jewell! Jeremy is a southern Minnesota based musician who plays guitar and sings, as well as blowing harp and playing foot percussion. He performs both original and cover music in a vintage folk style a la Bob Dylan, Neil Young, The Band etc.

Tonight's one-time-only Randall experiment is the American Wheat infused with lemons and limes! It's a light thirst-quencher with a nice citrus-ish finish. Sorry, no crowlers/growlers of the Randall beers. 🍋

The top half of Jake's head is having a great time at Midwest Craft Brewers Conference today in Wisconsin. Today they're checking out a few breweries and a distillery. We're always trying to learn more to make our beer even more delicious! Thanks Barley John's for the great tour!

The first bridal shower at FHB was held today. These ladies know how to throw a party! 🌻🌸🌷
