- Serving Temperature: 50-55º F
- Suggested Glassware: Pint Glass or Mug
- Hops: Saaz, Magnum
- Malts: Caramel, Black, Aromatic
- Country: United States
Millstream’s Air Porter presents a super dark brown color topped by a head of light brown foam. This bad boy is intensely malty in the aroma as soon as we pop it open; look for prominent notes of coffee, deep-down caramel, plentiful chocolate, hazelnut, and touches of spiced pastry. On the palate, we’re greeted with a full-bodied brew delivering tons of that roasty-toasty malt character that offers up layers of scorched caramel, dark & milk...
- Bottle Size: 12-oz
- Style: Scotch Ale / Wee Heavy
- ABV: 9.0%
- Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 25
- Serving Temperature: 50-55º F
- Suggested Glassware: Thistle Glass, Tulip, Snifter
- Hops: Zeus, Hallertau Mittelfrüh
- Malts: 2-Row, Munich, Light & Dark Crystal
- Country: United States
Winner of the 2023 USA Beer Awards “Beer of the Year”, this bold Scotch Ale (Scotch Ale is also known as Wee Heavy, and designates the highest gravity form of Scottish Ale) pours a gorgeous deep garnet color when held to the light, with good clarity and a small head of beige foam. On the nose, bold malty notes abound, delivering impressions of toasted bread and rich caramel, with additional tones of molasses and brown sugar, hints of cocoa...
- Bottle Size: 12-oz
- Style: American Wheat Ale w/ Blood Orange
- ABV: 4.5%
- Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 10
- Serving Temperature: 40-45º F
- Suggested Glassware: Pint Glass or Mug
- Hops: Cascade, Magnum
- Malts: White Wheat Malt
- Country: United States
This American-style wheat ale presents a pale gold color in the glass – fairly hazy, as we expect for the style – and capped by a generous head of pale foam. Millstream brews this one with blood orange, and that special addition is apparent from the first sniff. Bold blood orange citrus leads the way in the aroma, backed by subtle floral and citric hop notes, all overlaid on a very clean canvas of pale wheat. That blood orange contribution...
- Bottle Size: 12-oz
- Style: Hefeweizen
- ABV: 5.0%
- Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 5
- Serving Temperature: 45-50º F
- Suggested Glassware: Weizen Glass
- Hops: Hallertau Mittelfrüh
- Malts: 2-Row, White Wheat, Munich
- Country: United States
This hefeweizen from Salt Flats pours a hazed pale golden color, topped with a vigorous head of bright foam. The use of authentic Bavarian weissbier yeast is apparent in the aroma right away as we get very bold phenolic notes delivering lots of clove-like herbal character, which melds into a touch of spicy, herbal noble hops. In addition, look for secondary true-to-style banana notes, as well as an undertone of pale bread or cracker. That...
- Bottle Size: 12-oz
- Style: New England-style IPA
- ABV: 6.8%
- Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 57
- Serving Temperature: 45-50º F
- Suggested Glassware: IPA Glass, Pint Glass, Tulip
- Hops: Citra, Centennial, Moutere
- Malts: Rye, Oats, Wheat
- Country: United States
Haze E. Hop presents a well-hazed golden orange color, topped with a prominent head of off-white foam that leaves sheets of lace as we drain the glass. On the nose, look for a good deal of fruity notes in this highly aromatic brew, evoking citrus fruits and apricot-like stone fruit character, along with a lush tropical floral impression and a wisp of pine. Additional notes of spicy rye malt come forth, as well. On the palate, we get a supremely...
- Bottle Size: 12-oz
- Style: New England-style IPA
- ABV: 6.2%
- Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 24
- Serving Temperature: 45-50º F
- Suggested Glassware: IPA Glass, Pint Glass, Tulip
- Hops: Mosaic, Amarillo, Citra
- Malts: White Wheat
- Country: United States
This hazy IPA from Millstream pours a very well-hazed golden color with a large and persistent head of foam. In the aroma, look for bright citrus zest to jump out right away, along with a juicy array of softer tropical fruit and flora, impressions of sliced melon, and a light, somewhat peach-like stone fruit tone. All these luscious fruity notes take center stage in the flavor too, supported nicely by a robust, wheaty, malty core that offers a...
- Bottle Size: 12-oz
- Style: American IPA
- ABV: 5.0%
- Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 55
- Serving Temperature: 45-50º F
- Suggested Glassware: IPA Glass, Pint Glass, Tulip
- Hops: Centennial, Cascade, Amarillo, Citra
- Malts: 2-Row, Crystal 40, Munich
- Country: United States
Salt Flat’s Daytona IPA presents a bright golden-copper color with a touch of haze and a cap of persistent foam. In the aroma, this is a boldly fruity IPA with a complex array of grapefruit- and tangerine-leaning citrus notes, with secondary notes evoking tropical fruit character akin to mango and passion fruit, touches of peach and apricot stone fruits, and some light floral flourishes. Light hints of toast and caramel lurk below. The fruity...
- Bottle Size: 330-ml
- Style: Saison
- ABV: 7.0%
- Serving Temperature: 45-50° F
- Suggested Glassware: Tulip, Teku, Willi Becher
- Country: Belgium
In the glass, this saison presents an amber hue with a good deal of effervescence and a plentiful head of light beige foam. Bright but delicate notes come forth in the aroma, offering touches of orchard fruits and melon, some grassiness with hints of hay, and a bit of earthy spice, with a mildly toasty biscuit-like undercurrent. On the palate, expect a fairly robust and full-bodied brew with a somewhat rustic malt backbone forming a prominent...
- Bottle Size: 330-ml
- Style: Quadrupel
- ABV: 11.0%
- Serving Temperature: 50-55° F
- Suggested Glassware: Tulip, Teku, Goblet
- Country: Belgium
Like St-Feuillien’s Seven, their Quad is a bottle-conditioned beer that may have some yeast sediment, and some foam may begin rising from the bottle when opened, so be ready with your glass. Visually, this quadruple/quadrupel (either spelling is acceptable) looks the part, and it looks good, presenting a reddish-brown mahogany color topped by plenty of light brown foam. On the nose, expect a richly malty, but also spicy and fruity brew. We get...
- Bottle Size: 750-ml
- Style: Belgian Tripel Ale
- ABV: 9%
- Serving Temperature: 41–45° F
- Suggested Glassware: Tulip, Chalice, Goblet, or Teku Glass
- Country: Belgium
The Het Anker Gouden Carolus Tripel pours a slightly hazy golden amber, with delicate orange highlights glistening when touched by light, all crowned by a substantial, creamy pale head that clings to the glass like intricate church windows with every sip. After pouring into our preferred tulip glasses, the air is instantly filled with the enticing fragrances of lusciously sweet malt and candied orange peel, accompanied by subtle notes of...
- Bottle Size: 750-ml
- Style: Belgian Imperial Holiday Ale
- ABV: 10%
- Serving Temperature: 45–46° F
- Suggested Glassware: Tulip, Chalice, Goblet, or Teku Glass
- Country: Belgium
This month we’re happy to bring to our Rare Beer Club members the fantastic Het Anker Gouden Carolus Christmas, brewed with three different Belgian hops and six different herbs and spices. In recent years, this brew has been available in only ten states, and in ridiculously small amounts, so we’re very excited to have had the opportunity to snag enough of this beautiful beer to offer to you this year. It pours a deep ruby red with a striking...
