		Here's what you will find on tap at The Round Barn Brewery in Baroda and Union Pier. Grape Expectations - Our Latest Release: Grape Expectations, was a favorite at the Michigan Winter Beer Festival. Using the familiar flavor and aroma of Niagara grapes grown here in Southwest Michigan, the Grape Expectations is a blonde fruit ale of brilliant clarity, light-bodied with a beautiful white frothy head. 100% Belgian Pale malt constitutes the base as it melds fruity notes from the grains, hops, yeast, and of course Niagara Grapes. Pink peppercorns are added to secondary conditioning to provide a hint of fruity/spice to the mid-palate before a nice clean finish, like a beer should on hot summer days. Sticking to the great Belgian Blonde the grape flavor and aroma are complementary and not overpowering. (ABV 6.5%) More about our craft beers! Limited Time Offer $10 off membership Sign-up
