Founders Brewing is planning to start releasing specialty beers in 750ml bottles this summer. No word on which beers, but it sounds like they will be one-off beers like some they serve at their tap room.

Yeah, it sounds like it's not going to be any of their current seasonals. More likely like things they play around with on their tap room. I would very much love to be able to buy some CBS, even if I have to drive out of state to get it!

Check out their mango IPA if it comes around. Had it on draft at the brewery served with Nitro. It was awesome and the most popular beer at the bar.

Founder's has announced the first in the Backstage Series:

From Founder's:
"You may have seen that we plan to release a 750 mL Backstage Series. This week, we announced that Blushing Monk will be the first in the series,

Partner and Vice President Dave Engbers explains, "We haven't
produced this product in over four years and people have been begging for it--so this is the perfect time to bring Blushing Monk back to market." Blushing Monk is a decadent Belgian Raspberry Ale that was last produced in 2007, and is still highly sought after.

We're not going to reveal the entire lineup yet, but it will be full of taproom favorites that have been offered throughout the years. We plan to release two or three in the series this year."
