Sahale Ale Works (1505 Wisconsin Ave., Grafton) is releasing two barrel-aged imperial stouts at 3 p.m. Warm Fuzzies and Maple Warm Fuzzies will both be available in 16-ounce cans and a limited amount will be offered on tap. Brewer Matt Hofmann says they both have “prominent but balanced bourbon character”, and that’s good enough for me.
