Jolly Pumpkin Artisan Ales - Oro de Calabaza

Jolly Pumpkin Artisan Ales - Oro de Calabaza

Jolly Pumpkin Artisan Ales - Oro de Calabaza

  • Style: Chardonnay Barrel-Aged Bière de Garde
  • ABV: 8.00%
  • Serving Temperature: 45-50° F
  • Suggested Glassware: Tulip
  • Country: United States
Oro De Calabaza means ‘Pumpkin Gold,’ and true to its name, it is golden orange in color, with a lusciously large foamy, sticky head. On the nose, look for notes of lemon zest, raw, tart and sour grapefruit juice notes, woodsy fallen leaves, oranges, perfumy alcohol, faint notes of leather, phenols and spice (think ginger). What jumps out most prominently is the slightly funky “tartness” from the wild yeasts—giving the traditional barnyard or hor...

Millstream Brewing Company - Colony Oatmeal Stout

Millstream Brewing Company - Colony Oatmeal Stout

  • ABV: 5.80%
  • Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 22
  • Serving Temperature: 50-55° F
  • Suggested Glassware: Pint Glass or Mug
  • Hops: Magnum, Glacier, Saaz
  • Malts: 2-Row Pale, Caramel, Chocolate, Flaked Oats, Munich, Roasted Barley, Black Malt, Red Wheat
  • Country: United States
Eight different malts and grains come together to create this rich, black stout. Stouts are traditionally fermented using ale yeast. However, the folks at Millstream Brewing Company wanted to combine the smooth, clean, easy-drinking qualities of a lager beer with the rich flavor characteristics of a full-bodied stout, thus, we have their Colony Oatmeal “Stout Lager." Expect notes of plum, roasted coffee beans, milk chocolate, hints of figs and ma...

  • ABV: 8.00%
  • Serving Temperature: 50-60° F
  • Suggested Glassware: Snifter, Oversized Wine Glass or Pint Glass
  • Country: Scotland
For an imperial stout, this beer is not as dark as we expected, but no matter—there’s room for variation. On the nose, look for notes of chalk-dusted plums, chocolate milk, Turkish coffee, spicy figs, dried molasses, chocolate pudding, roasted malts & cascade citrus as it warms, with hints of saltine crackers in the background. At full warmth, this beer really opens up and becomes what it was meant to be. Spicy hoppy bites nip at the nostrils, us...

Millstream Brewing Company - John's Generations White Ale

  • ABV: 5.20%
  • Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 14
  • Serving Temperature: 50° F
  • Suggested Glassware: Pint Glass or Pilsner Glass
  • Hops: Glacier, Magnum
  • Malts: 2-Row Pale, Flaked Oats, Flaked Wheat, Red Wheat
  • Country: United States
White Ales, or "witbiers" as they're known in Belgium, get their name from the light-colored cloudiness contributed by the wheat and yeast left in the unfiltered beer. To properly enjoy this beer, you should pour the first 2/3rds into your glass, then swirl the bottle vigorously to stir up the wheat sediment, and pour the last third into your glass roughly in order to mix the unsettled haze into your beer and get the true-to-style, brilliantly wh...

  • Style: Belgian Stout
  • ABV: approx. 5.5%
  • Serving Temperature: 52-60° F
  • Suggested Glassware: Pint Glass, Mug, Stein
  • Country: Belgium
Heads up: this one’s a ‘foamer,’ so be ready to pour right after popping the swivel top, lest you run the risk of having beer erupting out of the bottle. This Belgian Stout pours an ultra deep brown, nearly black color, with a massive medium-brown head. First thing our panel noticed was that this beer has the nose of a much bigger, 8+% ABV Imperial Stout, but at only 5.5%. Is it legal to have this much flavor jam packed into a “session” beer? Exp...

Joseph James Brewing Company - Tahoe Blue

  • ABV: 6.00%
  • Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 60
  • Serving Temperature: 45° F
  • Suggested Glassware: Pint Glass
  • Hops: Cascade, Chinook, Galena, Palisade
  • Malts: 2-Row Pale, Caramel, Munich
  • Country: United States
Tahoe Blue opens with notes of caramel malts, bread, fruits and floral elements on the nose. Look for notes of fruit punch, grapefruit, and hints of spruce, with a faint whiff of maraschino cherries. The flavor parallels the nose, with an emphasis on piney, spruce-like hoppiness, and an almost coffee-like bitterness in the finish. Woody and a bit spicy in the fade. A balanced pale ale that works well with chipotle-spiced, glazed pork chops....

Brewdog, Ltd. - Hardcore IPA

  • ABV: 9.00%
  • Serving Temperature: 40-45° F
  • Suggested Glassware: Pint Glass, or Oversized Wine Glass
  • Country: Scotland
As it’s poured from the bottle into the appropriate glassware, look for a medium straw color, capped by a just-shy-of-white colored head. This beer has a gorgeous pour when poured hard, with bubbles cascading down nicely along the side of the glass (you’ll see this effect more in a pint glass than one with curved edges). On the nose, there’s virtually no sign of the massive 9% ABV. Despite what you might expect from the name (if you are already w...

Joseph James Brewing Company - Alpine Wit

  • ABV: 5.10%
  • Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 15
  • Serving Temperature: 45-50° F
  • Suggested Glassware: Pint Glass or Pilsner Glass
  • Hops: Cluster, Sterling
  • Malts: Pilsen, White Wheat
  • Country: United States
Pour a sample of this and John’s Generations White Ale also featured this month so you can try a side by side comparison. The overall difference is that Alpine Wit is a drier, hoppier version of the style. Look for notes of cloves, earthy wild yeasts and wheat, with dry and peppery flourishes on the nose. On the palate, expect notes of candied orange peel, floral tones and hints of lavender, with a gentle spiciness provided by coriander, yeast an...
