Grainbelt Premium has long been a favorite summer drink-a-lot-in-a-row beer. So I think it’s fitting that we celebrate this Minnesota classic during hump week, our Brew52 half way point. As you sit back and chug one after another, I ask that you think about all of your good memories involving Grainbelt. For me the top two have to be playing bean bag toss on the fourth of July and bungie jumping off of the Grainbelt billboard. Ok, the second one hasn’t actually happened…yet.
