Niko's favorite:
1. Rok n Fondue- Death by Coconut Oskar Blues Brewery- (6.4% ABV/25 IBUs) is a semi-sweet porter made from loads of dark chocolate and extra dark caramel malt. It pours a rich velvet black with a frothy head and exudes intense fresh cacao flavors swirled with popping coconut aromas. In 2002, our funky little Colorado grown brew-pub started stuffing our huge, added a brewery to the hills of Pisgah National Forest in Brevard, NC and another in the Live Music Capital of the World, Austin, TX, in 2016.
2. Ritual Hellion: Hellion is a Belgian Strong Pale Ale style beer brewed by Ritual Brewing Co. in Redlands, CA. -This extraordinary brew features aromas of banana and pear with mouth-filling flavors of sweet malt, earthy hops and a hint of juicy, sun-ripened apricot. The lingering finish is dry and slightly bittersweet but very, very smooth. 8.4%
3. Darby's - Marshmallow Milk Stout is a Milk / Sweet Stout style beer brewed by Garage Brewing Co. in Temecula, CA. Pours deep brown almost black with small, light tan head that doesn't last long. Smells of vanilla and roasted malts. Got some foam in nose that was almost pure chocolate smell. Tastes semi sweet milky creamy vanilla i think that's the marshmallow. Fades to a more neutral roast flavor. Finishes with light sweetness with a lingering marshmallow vanilla flavour.
4. The State: Raspberry Sour is a American Wild Ale style beer brewed by Avery Brewing Company in Boulder, CO. Good choice when craving a sour.
5. Hammerhead - Augie’s Coffee Edition Hangar 24- American Barleywine Style Ale aged in Bourbon barrels with Augie’s Coffee added. After removing Hammerhead from its barrels, Hangar 24 delivered two of the beer-soaked barrels to Augie’s, and in went unroasted green coffee beans- the same used in Augie’s Coffee Hammerhead. After soaking up all the flavors of the barrel, the beans were roasted and packaged
Deb's Fav:
Adult Root Beer Floats at Brewcakes- Stout Float- Rotating session stout with vanilla ice cream. They also have cidear ice cream floats and bartender's choice.
1. Lazy Day IPA | Escape Craft Brewery. Moderate bitterness, vivid citrus & floral hop aromas.
2. Hangar 24 ICONIC Double IPA. Pours a clear light orange-amber with white head. A citrus hop, pine, and tropical fruit malt aroma. A malt heavy beer with tropical fruit, caramel, and grains, but also some citrus hops and pine. A bitter citrus hop and sweet malt aftertaste.
3. Eureka Burger- Racer 5 India Pale Ale is a American IPA style beer brewed by Bear Republic Brewing Co. in Healdsburg, CA. strong pine elements but also some faint mango aroma to it. Fairly bitter upfront followed by some fruitiness. AleSmith Speedway Stout - Vietnamese Coffee Blend of four Vietnamese coffees added to our popular imperial stout. Intensely aromatic and bold tasting coffee that complements the notes of chocolate and roast in this massive stout.
