Mackeson XXX

4.9% alcohol. Introduced in 1907. Originated in England. Brewed, in Florida, by Florida Beer Company.

"Triple Stout. Milk Stout. A full bodied example of an old Southern English style sweet stout. Brewed since 1907, this world class stout possesses a distinctive texture and superb balance, while being recognized as one of the smoothest stouts available. Pours a deep, dark brown with the aroma of burnt currants and coffee, well balanced sweetness with notes of bitter chocolate and moderate hop bitterness. Pairs well with rich, roasted or smoked meats, smoked chicken wings, well aged cheddar and chocolate espresso cake. Our stout was most recently awarded the Silver Medal in the 2017 US Open Beer Championships, Cream Stout Category."

Ballast Point Brut IPA

7% alcohol. Introduced in 2019. Limited release. Brewed, in California, by Ballast Point Brewing.

"Brut IPA is our latest deep dive into the ever more complex world of IPA. This bone-dry IPA features a light body matched only by its light bitterness. But don’t be fooled, this beer is exploding with juicy, citrus hop character in what is undoubtedly a fantastic voyage into unknown waters."

Pumpkin Smash

10.6% alcohol. 48 IBU. Brewed, in Missouri, by Crown Valley.

"Our Imperial Pumpkin Smash is deliciously roasted with dark chocolate and toffee notes with a hint of smoke and a little spice from the hops that give it a pine note. The pumpkin adds body and character for a great beer."

Innis & Gunn Gunpowder IPA

5.6% alcohol. Brewed, in Scotland, by Innis & Gunn.

"Our IPA is an explosion of aromas from Cascade, Centennial and Mandarina hops. Think orange, grapefruit and pine turned up to eleven. Its fully charged, hoppy character is perfectly balanced by a sweetness from the Munich malt."
