Rams Head The Blog

The Rams Head Group is pleased to announce the release of Baltic Porter Winter Brew Beer on Thursday, November 5th at 4pm.

“Whether your idea of enjoying winter is a tough day on the slopes or an evening with a crackling fire, comfort food and a good movie, Baltic Porter is just the remedy to warm your spirit,” says Rams Head Roadhouse Manager, David Cornwell

Dominion Baltic Porter is a bottom-fermented lager brewed to meet your need for warmth on a cold winter’s night. Hints of licorice, toffee and chocolate sooth the palate and bring out the rich flavors and aroma this style is known for. Using German Pilsner, Crystal, Dark Specialty malts and a touch of Rye gives this porter a full-bodied taste. Raise your mug to those who were bold enough to brave Baltic!

Join us for a fun-filled evening and warm your bones with Old Dominion’s winter brew, Baltic Porter. Rams Head celebrates by having a beer release party on Thursday, November 5th from 4pm-6pm with $4 special glassware and only $1 additional pours.

From his star turn on the groundbreaking comedy show In Living Color to his recent “news show” on Comedy Central Chocolate News to his many appearances on Broadway, David Alan Grier is one of the comedy world’s funniest and most respected comedians. His appearances on Loveline, Crank Yankers and in the recent Nike commercials as the voice of the Kobe Bryant puppet are some of the small screen’s most hilarious recent moments, and he was even featured in the recent season of Dancing With the Stars. (We mention this even though he was eliminated in a dance-off by Lawrence Taylor. Lawrence Taylor! Come on DAG!) This Friday night, Rams Head Live is proud to present a very special evening of comedy with David Alan Grier. We are even more proud that he took the time to answer questions for our blog!
