The medium body English-style ale is back on-tap in The Brew Pub at Mohegan Sun

Mohegan Sun is excited to announce that its spring ale, Peeping Frog, will be on-tap throughout the property starting March 20th.

“Peeping Frog has been a mainstay in The Brew Pub at Mohegan Sun for over a decade,” said Joel Johnson, Brew Pub Manager at Mohegan Sun. “This light English-style malt has a crisp and refreshing finish with a light caramel color.”

Mohegan Sun’s Peeping Frog ale will be served at: The Brew Pub at Mohegan Sun, Hall of The Lost Tribes, The Cove Bar, Seasons Buffet, the inside bar at Todd English’s Tuscany, The Lodge, Wolf Den Bar & Showroom, Leffingwells Martini Bar, the Harvest Moon Bar and the East Wind Bar located in Casino of the Wind.  Additionally, Mohegan Sun’s Sachem Ale and Mohegan Lager are on-tap 365 days a year and seasonal brew, Thunder Moon Lager, will be introduced in early June.
