Stone Smoked Porter

Stone Smoked Porter STYLE: American Porter STATS: 5.9% ABV The pour is very dark brown with a thin white head. It has a malty, caramel smell to it. When you taste it however, it has hints of coffee & smoke throughout it. As with a lot of Stone beers, you do taste the hops but it's at least toned down in this offering. The aftertaste of hops does linger but the cocoa & coffee accompany it so I don't mind. Alcohol is transparent in the taste as well. It's overall a nice porter. Doesn't do enough for me to become one of my faves but I will drink this again.

St Arnold Endeavor IPA

St Arnold Endeavor IPA STYLE: American Double / Imperial IPA STATS: 8.9% ABV / 76 IBU The beer poured out of the bottle with a very hazy, light amber color. Almost orange. It has a light white head and an odor of pine & citrus. Slightly hoppy smell. The taste mirrors that but the hop is up front & center. It ends with a sort of grapefruit aftertaste. A medium bodied brew that has a fair amount of carbonation. Hop heads may require more hops out of this but I feel it's a good, "summer-y" IPA.

Southern Tier Double Milk Stout

Southern Tier Double Milk Stout STYLE: Milk / Sweet Stout STATS: 7.5% A very opaque, dark brown pour w/ a large, frothy head. This does not have a strong smell but you can pick up hints of the lactose & chocolate. Taste is what you would expect from a milk stout. Chocolate & creamy with a silky finish. It has a slight aftertaste of coffee with a twinge of bitterness but no alcohol is present. Very drinkable for something approaching double digit ABV. Not too sweet either. Great stout & well done.
