Fonta Flora Brewery has a big day planned for Saturday, Feb. 7. Co-owner and brewer Todd Boera is releasing two of the brewery’s first sour ales in 500-milliliter bottles: Vestige Wither, which features local fennel, and Vestige Bloom, which features local kiwis.
The brewery is also showcasing its recent renovations and releasing eight special variations of its imperial stout, Urban Monk. Varieties include black walnut, toasted coconut, cardamom and coffee flavors plus one aged with Defiant whiskey-soaked wood spirals and a top-secret variation, among others. Just 150 limited-edition, swing-top bottles, with custom screen prints from Marcus Thomas — a.k.a the Urban Monk — will be available to-go. In the taproom, Asheville’s One Leg Up will be playing and food will be available from Wisteria Southern Gastropub.
