This was a delicious beer. The chocolate taste was prominent, unlike the Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout.

Our Milk Chocolate Stout is a Sweet Stout brewed with milk sugar for a creamier texture. The brew is aged on roasted gourmet Guitard cocoa nibs and Madagascar vanilla beans for a rich, sweet treat. The low hop content of the brew gives the chocolate flavors the lead in this twist on the traditional stout.

Sweet Stouts, also known as Milk Stouts, were originally thought to be extremely nutritious and were at one time given to nursing mothers with the claim that they had a similar nutritional content to milk. After WWII, the British government banned the word “milk” to be used in reference to alcohol, and brewers started calling their creations "Sweet Stout".

Rolle Bolle
Ale
- Seasonal

STORY
A delightful summer ale for easy sipping and a classic Belgian yard game for easy enjoyment, Rolle Bolle is how we roll. Brewed with monk fruit and soursop, this beer pours a brilliant blonde, with a fluffy, white head. Earthy and tropical tones carry the aroma and the taste follows accordingly. Rolle Bolle’s hint of tartness is backed with the citrus bite of Cascade and Centennial hops. Oats add some creaminess to the mouthfeel, and it finishes dry and clean. Time to get in the yard, crack a bottle and start rolling.

Angry Orchard Crisp Apple

~I'm not a beer. I'm a cider.~

I don't regularly drink cider and so I don't know how this hard cider compares to other hard ciders I've had, but I can still say I thought this particular cider was delicious.

This Angry Orchard Crisp Apple was a good amount of sweet. I have a stuffy nose rating of 0 or 1 (on a scale of 0 to 8). Having woke up from a nap, my sleepiness is a 0 out of 8.
