- Suggested Glassware: Pilsner Glass
- Hops: Hallertau Blanc, Mosaic
- Malts: Rahr Pilsner, Weyermann Acidulated, Louisiana Cajun Rice
- Country: United States
This dry-hopped pils presents a bright gold color with good clarity and a head of crisp white foam. Vibrant fruity hops come forth right away, offering a multitude of shades due to the two complex hops used here. We picked up light touches of citrus rind, melon, and passionfruit, joined by notes of earth and cut grass. On the palate, this pils is spry, with bright hoppy notes controlling the vibe while the malt backbone remains...

- Serving Temperature: 42-47º F
- Suggested Glassware: Pilsner Glass
- Hops: Citra
- Malts: Pale Malt, Wheat Malt
- Country: United States
Peak’s Happy Hour presents a bright straw color in the glass, with good clarity and a bright head of white foam. Brewed with Citra hops, this pilsner embraces a strong American quality, offering up aromas of citrus zest along with some floral overtones and some spicy elements. In the flavor, we get a tasty malt core offering a good dose of crackery and bready character. Look for those hops to come through much as they did in the aroma, with an...
- Bottle Size: 12-oz

- ABV: 4.0%
- Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 20
- Serving Temperature: 42-47º F
- Suggested Glassware: Pint Glass, Flute
- Hops: Cascade
- Malts: Rahr Pilsner, Weyermann Vienna
- Country: Netherlands
There’s something endearing about naming a beer after your area code – it’s a very popular way to honor your region and hometown, and specifically the local community who you’re brewing for and who supports you. Firestone Walker’s 805 and Goose Island’s 312 spring to mind immediately. Heck, 903 Brewers in Sherman and (512) Brewing Co. in Austin are two brewers we can think of who named their entire brewery after the area code – and those...
- Bottle Size: 12-oz
- Style: American IPA
- ABV: 7.1%
- Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 62
- Serving Temperature: 45-50º F
- Suggested Glassware: IPA Glass, Tulip, Pint Glass
- Hops: Amarillo, Simcoe, Nugget
- Malts: Pale Malt, Crystal 60
- Country: United States
Pouring a bright golden hue with some haze and a cap of just-off-white foam, Peak Organic IPA looks good in the glass while also presenting quite an inviting aroma profile; look for piney, floral, and citric notes reminiscent of grapefruit and orange, with stone fruit and tropical overtones and a touch of mild caramel underneath it all. Brewed with Amarillo, Simcoe, and Nugget, and dry-hopped with a big dose of both Amarillo and Simcoe, this...
- Bottle Size: 12-oz
- Style: Hazy Session IPA
- ABV: 4.1%
- Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 33
- Serving Temperature: 42-47º F
- Suggested Glassware: IPA Glass, Pint Glass
- Hops: Calypso, Citra, Simcoe
- Malts: Pale Malt
- Country: United States
Peak specializes in IPAs, bright pilsners, and hoppy beers in general – it’s their thing and they’re good at it. This particular beer was brewed as a sort of light IPA, like an uber session IPA, and it’s impressive how much flavor they can deliver for such a light beer. On the pour, we get a pale straw color that’s very hazy, a bit like pineapple juice, with a spritely head of white foam. The mix of Calypso, Citra, and Simcoe aromas really drew...
- Bottle Size: 440-ml
- Style: English Pale Ale (Nitrogenated)
- ABV: 5.0%
- Serving Temperature: 45-50° F
- Suggested Glassware: Pint Glass, Wide Flute
- Hops: Pilgrim, First Gold, Goldings
- Malts: Pale, Crystal
- Country: England
This iconic British ale is quite stunning in the glass, especially as this version is nitrogenated, presenting a rich reddish-amber hue capped with a dense, mousse-like off-white head which coats the glass with lace as you drink. On the nose, look for light notes of caramel and toffee along with a definite fruity overtone, likely both from esters produced during fermentation as well as Morland’s choice of hops, a blend of Pilgrim, First Gold...
- Bottle Size: 375-ml
- Style: Black Lager
- ABV: 4.6%
- Serving Temperature: 45-50° F
- Suggested Glassware: Pint Glass, Tulip, Oversized Wine Glass
- Country: Brazil
When you pour this beer you’ll see we ain’t lyin’ – this is one black beer. But Xingu is not to be confused with the German style of black beer known as Schwarzbier; this is really a different species and is quite unusual. On the nose, there are not the big roasty notes one expects from such a dark brew. Instead there’s an impressive complexity including touches of sweetness akin to treacle (which is like a heavy, almost medicinal molasses...
- Bottle Size: 750-ml
- Style: Baltic Porter
- ABV: 10%
- Serving Temperature: 50–57° F
- Suggested Glassware: Tulip, Globe Snifter, or Teku Glass
- Country: Canada
Les Trois Mousquetaires delivers a stellar interpretation of the Baltic porter—just how we like it: rich, smooth, and packed with ripe dark fruit character. And, we’re not alone in singing its praises; it’s brought home a slew of World Beer Awards over the years, including World’s Best Strong Porter in 2021.
- Bottle Size: 16-oz
- Style: English Style Barleywine
- ABV: 13%
- Serving Temperature: 48–52° F
- Suggested Glassware: Globe Snifter or Tulip
- Country: United States
Inspired by the timeless tradition of English barleywine, Bombastic’s Stubbornness (Silver Medal winner at the 2022 North American Beer Awards) is a bold and unapologetic expression of rich malt complexity and assertive hops. Pouring a brilliant, clear copper with a radiant ruby hue and a persistent, creamy head, it looks every bit the classic it aims to be.
