The Widmer Brothers have been brewing some great beers, and it's about time we gave them the spotlight with the Boris Beer of the Week.  Drifter Pale Ale is a nice, drinkable beer with a great balance of citrus hops and bready malt.  If you're bringing some beer along this weekend to ring in 2012, you can't go wrong with this one.  It's a crowd pleaser for sure, and very drinkable.  and, at 5.7% abv, you'll be sure not to miss the ball drop either.  Happy New Year!
