Serving Temperature: 43-48º F
Suggested Glassware: Pint Glass or Pilsner Glass
Hops: Bravo, Tenntang, Hallertau Mittelfrüh
Malts: 2-Row, Wheat, C10
Country: United States

This blonde ale pours a bright golden color with good clarity and a cap of pale foam that offers up a pleasant, inviting aroma. Look for a crackery malt undertone overlaid by bright noble hop character including herbal, grassy notes with a dash of spice, a touch of hay, floral tones, and a hint of citrus. On the palate, the malt core delivers a satisfying crackery impression with some tangy wheat and a light hint of caramel. Those noble hops evoke...

Hangar 24 Craft Brewing - Orange Wheat

Bottle Size: 12-oz
Style: American Wheat Ale with Orange
ABV: 4.6%
Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 10
Serving Temperature: 42-47º F
Suggested Glassware: Pint Glass or Flute
Hops: Pahto
Malts: 2-Row, White Wheat
Country: United States

Hangar 24’s popular Orange Wheat pours a golden straw color with plenty of haze, as is typical for wheat ales, topped by a head of bright white foam. Wheat beers are often served with a wedge of lemon or orange, as the bright citrus note tends to work well with the tangy character of the wheat. Hangar 24 has embraced this concept, employing real, whole, locally sourced oranges which are delivered to the brewery right after picking...

Fulton Beer - Tropical Lonely Blonde

Bottle Size: 12-oz
Style: Blonde Ale with Passionfruit, Orange, Guava
ABV: 4.8%
Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 15
Serving Temperature: 43-48º F
Suggested Glassware: Pint Glass or Pilsner Glass
Hops: Bravo
Malts: 2-Row, Wheat, C10
Country: United States

Fulton brews a few variations on their original Lonely Blonde, including a Mexican-inspired Lime & Salt version, a lemon Shandy, and this spring seasonal Tropical variant brewed with passionfruit, orange, and guava that is a fan favorite among both the brewery’s customers and the staff. On the pour, we get the same bright golden color and pale foam head as the original, but look for the aroma to indicate this is certainly a different beer...

Hangar 24 Craft Brewing - Pacific Coast Hazy

Bottle Size: 12-oz
Style: Hazy Session IPA
ABV: 4.8%
Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 44
Serving Temperature: 45-50º F
Suggested Glassware: IPA Glass or Pint Glass
Hops: Simcoe, Centennial, Mosaic, Citra
Malts: 2-Row, Carapils, Munich 10, Flaked Oats, White Wheat
Country: United States

Pacific Coast Hazy presents a lightly hazed golden hue, capped by a head of crisp white foam. In the aroma, we picked up tons of bright and juicy orange and tangerine citrus notes, along with some tropical fruit, floral overtones, and a dash of pine. We’re off to a good start, and it continues on the palate as those citrus notes lead the way there too, offering an expansive, zesty, resinous character. The malt core provides a bit of tangy wheat amidst...

Hangar 24 Craft Brewing - Gunfighter Cold IPA

Bottle Size: 12-oz
Style: Cold IPA
ABV: 7.0%
Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 50
Serving Temperature: 42-47º F
Suggested Glassware: IPA Glass or Tulip
Hops: Chinook, Centennial, Cascade
Malts: Pilsner, 2-Row, Munich 10
Country: United States

The “cold IPA” sub-style has really burst onto the scene in the last couple years. If you’re unfamiliar, think of it like an uber-West-Coast-style IPA. The brewers ferment the beer colder than is typical of ales, often with lager yeast, or a blend of lager and ale yeast. They also eschew the heavy use of caramel and crystal malts, and sometimes add a little corn or rice, to reduce caramelized flavors. The end result is a full-throttle IPA, usually with...

Fulton Beer - Hop Kingdom Hazy IPA

Bottle Size: 12-oz
Style: New England-style Hazy IPA
ABV: 6.5%
Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 28
Serving Temperature: 45-50º F
Suggested Glassware: IPA Glass, Tulip, Pint Glass
Hops: Citra, Galaxy, Bravo, Ekuanot
Malts: 2-Row, Oats, Wheat
Country: United States

This hazy member of Fulton’s lineup of “Hop Kingdom” IPAs delivers on the name with a super densely hazed orange color on the pour, topped by a big cap of off-white foam that retains well before lacing the glass as it drops to a persistent ring. We felt the aromas were really inviting and multifaceted, bursting with tropical and citrus fruit notes conjuring impressions of passionfruit, guava, and zesty and juicy orange, with some sliced melon...

Fulton Beer - Hop Kingdom American IPA

Bottle Size: 12-oz
Style: American IPA
ABV: 5.8%
Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 35
Serving Temperature: 45-50º F
Suggested Glassware: IPA Glass, Pint Glass
Hops: Citra, Galaxy, Motueka
Malts: 2-Row, Wheat, Golden Naked Oats
Country: United States

In the glass, this classic American IPA delivers a bright golden hue with a light copper tinge, great clarity, and plenty of pale fluffy foam. Look for bright citric notes with floral tones, backed by touches of tropical and stone fruits – all overlaid over a very light, mildly toasted malty note. In the flavor, the hops come through with a good dose of fruitiness which manifests very zesty on the palate, like grapefruit and orange peel. To us, the perceived bitterness...

Carlsberg Marstons Brewing - Bombardier

Bottle Size: 500-ml
Style: Extra Special Bitter (ESB)
ABV: 5.2%
Serving Temperature: 47-55° F
Suggested Glassware: Pint Glass or Mug
Hops: Fuggle
Country: England

There are multiple variations of Bombardier including a 4.1% ABV cask version, a 4.7% bottled version, and this 5.2% version that’s bumped up a bit for export. This classic English brew pours an attactive reddish-amber color with nice clarity and a big head of fluffy khaki foam. Look for a wonderfully malty aroma with plenty of caramel and toasty bread undertones, decorated with a fruit ester tone evoking golden raisins and a mild hop character...

Greene King - Wexford Irish Style Crème Ale

Bottle Size: 440-ml
Style: Irish Red Ale (Nitrogenated)
ABV: 5.0%
Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 23
Serving Temperature: 40-45° F
Suggested Glassware: Pint Glass or Mug
Hops: Challenger, Admiral, Boadicea, First Gold, Wye Goldings
Country: England

Don't be alarmed if this beer opens with a bit of enthusiasm. Wexford uses a pressurized nitro "widget," a popular feature among some British and Irish beers that often are referred to as cream ales due to the nitro smoothness. (Not to be confused with American cream ales, which are a different style.) Definitely pour this one into a glass to observe the rich, dense, light beige mousse of very persistent nitrogen foam that forms atop this deep reddish-amber...

Two Brothers Brewing Company - Barrel Aged Northwind

Bottle Size: 16-oz
Style: Imperial Stout aged in Two Brothers Artisan Spirits Bourbon Barrels
ABV: 11.0%
Serving Temperature: 48-55° F
Suggested Glassware: Tulip, Pint Glass
Country: United States

Two Brothers Barrel Aged Northwind starts with the brewery’s beloved Northwind Imperial Stout and revs it up by aging it in bourbon barrels. And they’re not just any bourbon barrels, they originally held Two Brothers’ own Artisan Spirits Roundhouse Small Batch Bourbon! The brew spends 12 months in those barrels, developing a rich, slightly sweet warmth, before it’s canned and delivered to you. The Barrel Aged Northwind pours deep and dark...

Bottle Size: 750-ml
Style: Saison Brewed with Cayenne and Strawberry Tea
ABV: 6.5%

Country: Belgium

The Fantôme Skrip’s Big Brew was crafted in collaboration with adventurous New Jersey-based brewing company Phresh Phlavors along with Dany’s friend Nick Sarlo, known as Skrip. This attractive saison pours a rich copper red, with a noticeable chill haze and a nice amber head, which it retains well, leaving a trace of lacing with every sip. It’s a gorgeous looking beer that would liven up any picnic or meal outside in the sunshine...
