CHICAGO - Jan. 6, 2017 - PRLog -- New Beer Alert! Dovetail Vienna Lager
Mozart was played full-volume in the brewhouse as the Dovetail Vienna Lager was born! Brewed with 100% Vienna malt and Styrian Golding hops, the lager is a warm copper color with an equally a warm and malty character. May it make you grow a feather in your Alpine hat.

The Return of the Rauchbier
You asked, we answered! The Rauchbier is back! With a 5.3% ABV, the Rauchbier is dark with reddish tones and an off-white head with a rocky foam standing above the rim of the glass. Produced using 95% beechwood-smoked malt, it gives the impression of eating a bar of chocolate in a smokehouse, full and rich with generous hopping to balance the flavor of beechwood smoked bacon. Full bodied and comforting, the Rauchbier will help keep you warm this Chicago winter.

Meet Dovetail's Growler
Last month Dovetail released its first growler just in time for the holidays as the ultimate gift that keeps on giving. Buy a growler, fill it with your favorite Dovetail brew, drink it, bring it back to the taproom and get your growler refilled. Repeat indefinitely.

Each winter the Lincoln Square Ravenswood Chamber of Commerce takes the Chicago Street Festival scene indoors for the annual Winter Brew!  The weekend starts off with a smaller, more intimate VIP experience at Architectural Artifacts where local Ravenswood restaurants pair up with local Ravenswood Breweries. Then the big event takes place on Saturday with local breweries from around Chicago who set up shop on the 5th floor ballroom and 6th floor skyline lounge of the Dank Haus German American Cultural Center.  Each brewery will showcase at least two different craft beers, with some limited releases being offered.  It's sure to be an event you won't want to miss!

Dovetail isn't just dog friendly, it's food friendly too
Dovetail beer is great on its own but enjoying it with traditional German food never hurt anybody! Wash down the beer with thick warm pretzels, a pair of Landjäger or Kabanos sausages, pickled egg or Lucila's Homemade Alfajores. Made down the street from the Dovetail Taproom, these Argentinian pastries consist of a thick layer of Dulce de Leche sandwiched between two crumbly cookies and come in three flavors: Traditional, try with the Hefeweizen, White Chocolate, we think this goes best with a Lager but you can decide for yourself, and Dark Chocolate, pair with the Rauchweizen. Pro tip: order the pretzel, sausage and egg and eat them together for a delicious, traditional German breakfast!
