Flying Dog Brewery - Road Dog Porter

Flying Dog Brewery - Road Dog Porter

Flying Dog Brewery - Road Dog Porter

  • ABV: 6.00%
  • Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 31
  • Serving Temperature: 48-55°F
  • Suggested Glassware: Pint Glass or Mug
  • Hops: Warrior, Cascade
  • Malts: Crystal, Chocolate, Black
  • Country: United States
This was Flying Dog's first beer to be illustrated by Ralph Steadman. It also boasts a colorful tag line (mentioned previously) that landed them in a civil rights battle before they regained the right to print it. Road Dog pours a clear, rich mahogany brown with garnet highlights and an ample light tan colored head. The aroma offers up moderately sweet notes of toasted malts, with hints of coffee grounds under more prominent notes of...

Würzburger Hofbräu - Würzburger Pilsner

Würzburger Hofbräu - Würzburger Pilsner

  • ABV: approx 5.0%
  • Serving Temperature: 40-45°F
  • Suggested Glassware: Pilsner Glass, Flute, Mug or Stein, Stange
  • Country: Germany
Pilsners are often not given enough respect because of the horrendously cheap imitations that have spread throughout the world like some kind of plague of poor taste. The Würzburger Pilsner, however, is an example of exactly how the style is supposed to be done. In fact, we feel this German-style pils (there are Czech-style pilsners as well) is a great example of why the style became so popular in the first place. On the pour, look for a somew...

Jester King Craft Brewery - Black Metal Imperial Stout

Jester King Craft Brewery - Black Metal Imperial Stout

Jester King Craft Brewery - Black Metal Imperial Stout

  • Style: Imperial Stout
  • ABV: 10.40%
  • Serving Temperature: 57-61° F
  • Suggested Glassware: Goblet, Chalice, Snifter or Pint Glass
  • Country: United States
Brewed with six different malts, Magnum and East Kent Goldings hops, aerated & filtered Texas Hill Country well water and harvested rainwater, and fermented with dry English ale yeast (and black metal music played to the beer during fermentation). Essentially pure black in color at first glance, it’s actually a super dark brown when held to a penetrating light source, blanketed by a very thick, brownish head. There’s a show on display here as cas...

Köstritzer Schwarzbierbrauerei - Köstritzer Schwarzbier

  • ABV: 4.80%
  • Serving Temperature: 45-50° F
  • Suggested Glassware: Flute, Pilsner Glass, Mug or Stein
  • Country: Germany
If you think dark beers are all big and heavy, Köstritzer will challenge those notions. Not only is its level of alcohol relatively low at 4.8%, it is not a thick, chewy beer; in fact, a beer’s color actually has nothing to do with its body. Nor does this brew present a particularly bitter, overly-charred character. On the pour it certainly is dark, with some garnet flashes when held to the light, and a rich, creamy looking light brown head. But ...

Mercury Brewing Company - Ipswich IPA

Mercury Brewing Company - Ipswich IPA

  • ABV: 6.50%
  • Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 60
  • Serving Temperature: 45-50°F
  • Suggested Glassware: Pint Glass or Mug
  • Hops: Columbus, Cascade
  • Malts: Carapils, Cara 30-37, Roast
  • Country: United States
Ipswich IPA pours an attractive, hazy, deep coppery-amber color with a big, pillowy off-white head that leaves good lacing. On the nose it offers up a rich caramel malt base that lends a somewhat cake-like quality, along with a generous dose of floral, herbal hops. Take a sip and the big malt profile cascades over the palate with a deep toastiness, a bready quality, caramel, and some fruity notes. All 60 IBUs are apparent here as the flavorful...

Mercury Brewing Company - Ipswich Original Ale

Mercury Brewing Company - Ipswich Original Ale

  • ABV: 5.80%
  • Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 27
  • Serving Temperature: 45-52°F
  • Suggested Glassware: Pint Glass or Mug
  • Hops: Nugget, Willamette
  • Malts: Cara 30-37
  • Country: United States
Named one of the World's Ten Best Beers by Wine Spectator magazine, Ipswich Original Ale has won recognition over the years as one of the finest American-brewed English-style pale ales—and that's saying a lot. Expect an orangey-golden color with a fair amount of haze from yeast in suspension. There’s quite an earthy and woody aroma upfront, with moderate caramel, lightly toasted grain, a notable straw-like character, and a very light underlying c...

Flying Dog Brewery - Garde Dog

Flying Dog Brewery - Garde Dog

  • ABV: 5.50%
  • Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 27
  • Serving Temperature: 45-50°F
  • Suggested Glassware: Tulip or Snifter
  • Hops: Perle, Saaz
  • Malts: 2-Row Pale, Rye Malt, Malted Wheat, Flaked Wheat, Biscuit Malt
  • Country: United States
Garde Dog is brewed in the French Bière de Garde “farmhouse ale” style, although, like most of Flying Dog’s beers, they’ve put their own spin on it. On the pour, Garde Dog offers a clear, golden, light-amber color with a generous fluffy head. Look for a distinct earthy quality to the aroma, which we were really quite fond of. There’s a slightly off-dry impression with some hints of underlying fruity esters tending toward apple, lemon, and apri...

Brouwerij Slaapmutske - Triple Nightcap

  • Style: Belgian Tripel
  • ABV: 8.10%
  • Serving Temperature: 43-50° F
  • Suggested Glassware: Tulip
  • Country: Belgium
As the bottle proclaims, “with a name like Slaapmutske, it has to be good!” And it is. But don’t take our word for it; get some in your tulip glass and see for yourself. The beer pours a hazy golden amber, crowned by a thick, white, cottony head that drops thick curtains of heavenly Belgian lace down the glass. On the nose, look for notes of wild honey and caramel, wrapped in a blanket of Belgian yeastiness. We picked up a minor, subtle note of b...
