Stone Brewing Co.
Smoked Porter
Stone Smoked Porter is dark, rich and complicated. A porter is substantially darker than a pale ale, but not as black or opaque as stout. Our Stone Smoked Porter has a captivatingly deep mahogany color, complimented by a silky dark tan head. Rich, full-bodied and robust. Smooth, with chocolate and coffee like flavors balanced by a subtle "smoky" character of just the right amount of peat-smoked specialty malt. Terrific with meats and desserts!
Style: Porter
ABV: 5.9%
Bitterness: 55 IBU's

Blind Bat Brewery
Old Walt Smoked Wit

Unibroue
La Fin du Monde
Unibroue's best-selling brand offers both subtlety and strength, with a chorus of fruit, spice and hop notes that make this highly effervescent "liquid gold" so distinctive. Its complex flavor and natural carbonation make La Fin du Monde an ideal pairing for aged cheeses and succulent cuisine like scallops, filet mignon and duck confit. La Fin du Monde (The End of the World) became the first North American beer to rival the monk-brewed Trappist ales of Belgium in terms of complexity and strength. It was developed through 18 months of research on a unique strain of yeast that produces subtle flavors with champagne-like effervescence. This beer is brewed in honor of the intrepid European explorers who believed they had reached the 'end of the world' when they discovered a 'new world', later called America.
ABV: 9.0%
