– American Beer Festival 2013 / Even more highlights
Less than a week until the launch of our fabulous American beer festival and it seems about time to give a bit more of a tantalising peek at some of our selection, watch out for further up dates…
Southern Tier – 2x Stout – 7.5% / Lakewood, New York
A double milk stout, which as everyone knows is twice as good as your standard-roasty, chocolatey and pretty darn smooth.
Maui – Lahaina Town Brown – 5.3% / Maui, Hawaii
A light, crisp and very drinkable brown ale with the malt balanced nicely by some scrummy cascade.
Flying Dog – Imperial IPA – Citra Single Hop – 10% / Frederick, Maryland
A classic American style IPA with a healthy dose of bitterness from a sizeable chunk of citra, be warned it is slightly deceptive!
Sierra Nevada – Torpedo Extra IPA – 7.2% / Chico, California
One of Sierra Nevada’s best and brightest has made an outing over here in cask. Yum.
Against the Grain – 70K – 13.1% / Louisville, Kentucky
Bourbon barrel aged imperial stout-extremely roasty, chocolatey, creamy, so basically another fabulous treat from the ATG guys.
SKA – Special ESB Ale – 5.7% / Durango, Colorado
An excellent combination of tasty and quaffable for those who want to get into the beery zone at a sedate pace.
