Notes: When looking for an easy-drinking agave cerveza, Numero Uno is...well, numero uno.

Jailbreak "Clearly Righteous"

Jailbreak Brewing Company Clearly Righteous

Style: West Coast-Style IPA

ABV: 6.7%

Notes: Bursting with contemporary hop aromatics, Clearly Righteous serves as Jailbreak's modernized take on the classic West Coast IPA. They've kept the lean body of the style, but fermented with English ale yeast and increased the hopping rate to something close to, but not quite, hazy standards. Instead of the well-worn path to C hops, clearly Righteous will feature hops such as Strata, which showcases a generally more intense, tropical fruit-forward character. The decidedly drier finish also has the byproduct of enhancing drinkability. If one thing is for sure, it's that this beer is Clearly Righteous!


Jailbreak "Doubles Hazy IPA"

Jailbreak Brewing Company Doubles Hazy Double IPA

Style: Hazy Double IPA

ABV: 8%

Notes: Doubles is a contemporary double IPA utilizing a grist compromising 2-row, wheat, and oats, with the hopping regimen changing with each iteration. For Jailbreak's inaugural batch, they decided upon a blend of Mosaic, Ekuanot, and Cashmere Cryo, with the letter two hops carrying the majority of flavor; think green tropical fruit like star fruit or kiw, with the blueberry/citric medley of Mosaic underpinning the entire palate experience. Regardless of the particular hop combination of subsequent iterations, Doubles will remain soft yet luxurious, and provide bombastic, fruit-forward hop character.

Monument City "SOBO"
Style: Hazy Double IPA

ABV: 8%

Notes: A fresh drop of the other good stuff. A zesty, zingy double hazy IPA brewed with tangerines.

DuClaw "Hoodwink Faux Brett IPA"

DuClaw HoodWink Faux Brett IPA

Style: Sour IPA

ABV: 6.5%

Notes: Get hoodwink'd! This "faux-Brett" IPA uses yeast that produces just the right amount of funk and fruit esters with notes of mango and pineapple. Brett is known for remarkable flavor complexities and is safe to cultivate only in certain brewery settings. So, Duclaw found a way around it. Pour one out and embrace the deception. 

 

DuClaw "Sour Me Black Apple"

DuClaw Sour Me Black Apple Sour Ale

Style: Sour Ale

ABV: 5.5%

Notes: This Sour Me just may be the fairest one of all. It's made from the rare black apple, sometimes called the Black Diamond Apple, which has a deep purple hue and is reminiscent of something that's possessed by an evil queen. You'll experience enhanced tartness from the fruit addition with a touch of sweet. Go on, have a sip...

 

DuClaw "The PastryArchy - Mexican Hot Chocolate Brown Ale"

DuClaw The PastryArchy Mexican Hot Chocolate Brown Ale

Style: American Brown Ale

ABV: 7%

Notes: Originating in Mexico, hot chocolate has evolved as it's been adopted all over the world. This brown ale is a nod to an early iteration of the traditional favorite, made with a  bit of spice, deep chocolate, and lactose. 

 

Flying Dog "Strawberry Jalapeno Margarita Gose"

Flying Dog Strawberry Jalapeno Margarita Gose 01.png

Style: Gose

ABV: 5.9%

Notes: Made with real strawberry puree and jalapenos, Flying Dog's Strawberry Margarita Gose has the sweet, spicy and tart flavors you love in an authentic margarita. The standard gose flavor profile, with its bright citrus and strong saltiness, allowed Flying God's expert brewers to use specialty ingredients to adapt the flavor to mimic the hugely popular tequila-based beverage. After a pint or two, the strawberry's slightly sweet starts to fade into a mild heat from the jalapenos. This slow burn creates a delicious endless sipping cycle, more sweet then more heat!

 

Heavy Seas "Blackbeard's Breakfast"

Untitled drawing.png

Style: Bourbon Barrel-Aged Imperial Coffee Porter

ABV: 10%

Notes: Blackbeard's Breakfast is Heavy Seas' take on an imperial porter - just add coffee and bourbon. They use Chesapeake Bay Roasting Company's Dark Sumatra coffee to give this beer it's sumptuous coffee flavor. Bourbon barrels kick this beer up a notch, leaving flavors of caramel and roasty malt. It's a perfect storm to make a perfect porter.

 

Stone "Neverending Haze"

Stone Neverending Haze.png

Style: Session Hazy IPA

ABV: 4%

Notes: It's no secret that IPAs are Stone's favorite beer style. They represent everything Stone believes a beer should be: bold, flavorful and distinct. And while they've certainly enjoyed brewing high ABV double IPAs over the years, they loved the challenge of packing all that bold character into a 4% IPA. With notes of dankness and citrus in a beautiful golden orange haze, this beer is brewed to celebrate neverending good times.
