  • Suggested Glassware: Pint Glass or Pilsner Glass
  • Country: France
“From birth till death, a Corsican’s whole time is lived under the influence of the chestnut tree.”

This old saying illustrates perfectly the Corsicans’ fondness for this splendid tree. Corsica has even been called “the civilization of the chestnut tree.” The island is one of the last regions in Europe where the dried fruit of the chestnut tree is still made into flour, which is then used in many different dishes.

  • Style: Belgian Strong Dark Ale
  • Alcohol by Volume: 9.00%
  • Serving Temperature: 45-55° F
  • Suggested Glassware: Tulip, Snifter or Oversized Wine Glass
  • Country: Belgium
Named after their proud new home, Noir de Dottignies fills the glass with a tall plume of creamy head that is a toasty, off-white color, but in contrast to the deep brown burgundy beer, it initially may seem white. This is De Ranke’s darkest beer, and it features more varieties of malt than any of their other brews (six in fact). Despite the name, it’s not black. That being said, in contrast with all other De Ranke beers to date, this beer defini...

  • Alcohol by Volume: 5.40%
  • Serving Temperature: 45-50° F
  • Suggested Glassware: Pint Glass, Mug, or Stein
  • Country: Germany
Wolters Fest-Bier pours a light coppery-amber color with a nice looking foamy head from an aggressive pour. On the nose, the very distinctive aroma of German noble hops offer a prominent herbal/grassy character. Underlying the hops you’ll find a mildly sweet-smelling pale malt base with lightly toasty notes of crackers and biscuits. These crackery notes carry through on the palate, with hints of paper, bread, a somewhat dusty and earthy lager ...

TAPS Brewery - Smoke Lager

  • Alcohol by Volume: 4.50%
  • Serving Temperature: 48-53° F
  • Suggested Glassware: Mug, Stein, Stange, or Pilsner Glass
  • Country: Turkey
TAPS’s Smoke Lager is a German-style rauchbier (literally “smoke beer”), and is a great choice for pairing with barbeque and other complementary smokey meat dishes. It pours a golden straw color, somewhat hazy, with a fluffy head that leaves a persistant collar as you go. Lean in and take a smell, and it announces itself as a rauchbier with the distinct aroma of the beechwood-smoked malts that define this style. Underneath the smoked malts is ...

  • Alcohol by Volume: 6.80%
  • Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 60
  • Serving Temperature: 45-50° F
  • Suggested Glassware: Pint Glass or Mug
  • Hops: Cascade
  • Malts: Belgian Biscuit Malt, Chocolate Malt, Pale Malt, Gambrinus Honey Malt
  • Country: United States
“What’s an India-Style Brown Ale?” you might be wondering. Well, in recent years brewers across the country (and across the world, in fact) have been experimenting with merging the bold, fresh, aromatic hoppiness of the India Pale Ale (IPA) style with darker, maltier brews (with varying degrees of success). Some of the resultant beers have used the terms Black IPA, Cascadian Dark Ale, or India Black Ale. Flashback is Boulder’s twist on this tr...

  • Alcohol by Volume: 6.50%
  • Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 40
  • Serving Temperature: 45-50° F
  • Suggested Glassware: Pint Glass or Mug
  • Hops: Galena, Willamette, Cascade
  • Malts: Domestic Pale Malt, English 70/80 Caramel
  • Country: United States
This winter seasonal from Boulder’s Looking Glass Series was a Gold Medal winner in the Strong Ale category at the 2004 World Beer Cup, and once you’ve sampled it, it’s easy to see why. Look for a clear, deep-amber/reddish color on the pour with a medium khaki colored head. Moderately sweet aromas of light caramel are apparent, along with an apple and berry-like fruity note. There’s a subtle spicy quality along with a faintly grapefruit-like h...

  • Serving Temperature: 45-50°F
  • Suggested Glassware: Pint Glass or Mug
  • Hops: Cascade, Willamette, Fuggles, Mt. Hood, East Kent Goldings
  • Malts: Pale, Crystal, Caramalt, Torrified Wheat, Chocolate
  • Country: United States
The term “rack” can have wildly different meanings depending on the context, but in this case, as the label clearly shows us, it refers to moose antlers. Now that we’ve got that out of the way, this brew pours a crystal clear amber with a fluffy cream colored head. There’s a deep maltiness on the nose, offering notes of freshly baked bread overlaid with a hint of caramel sweetness and a fruity impression that’s released by a good swirl of the g...

  • Hops: Fuggles, Cascade, East Kent Goldings
  • Malts: Pale, Crystal, Torrified Wheat
  • Country: United States
Named after the local Pemigewasset River, Pemi Pale Ale pours an attractive amber copper color with a foamy head that retains well and leaves good lacing. On the nose look for moderate pale and caramel malt aromas with a note of buttered biscuits. The hop profile leans toward grassy with a light citrus rind zing. Take a sip and you’ll find light biscuity malt notes with a bit of caramel, and with some warmth a touch of candied fruit can be dis...
