Buffalo Brewing to Release 1976 Grodziskie in Cans This Weekend
Buffalo Brewing Company is dropping one of their best beers in my personal opinion, 1976 Grodziskie, in cans for the first time ever on April 11 (12pm). The brewery tweaked the recipe, adding Polish Smoked Wheat malt, while swapping out the German and Czech hops for Polish Lubelski. 1976 Grodziskie is light gold in color with a moderate malt body and bold smoky flavor, brewed to celebrate the year Cardinal Karol Wojtyla (St. John Paul II) returned to Buffalo two years before being elected Pope. 1976 Grodziskie will be released in 12oz. six-pack cans for $10 (includes tax and deposit).
