On Saturday, Oct. 21, Great Raft Brewing in Shreveport will host the Fourth Annual Great Raft Ramble (RSVP to the Facebook event or purchase tickets), a day-long party that functions as a birthday celebration for the popular craft brewery. The thing that sets this party apart is the absurd number of rare and limited quantity Great Raft brews that will be available on tap. For this year’s Ramble, the GRB team is touting “more than 30 beers” on tap, and they were kind enough to reveal 26 of those beers to 20×49.com…leaving room for some last-minute surprises.
