•  Jail Break - Chocolate Milk Stout | 6.6% ABV | 12 IBUs. Udder Chocolate is our one-off chocolate milk stout brewed to be enjoyed during the cold winter months! Cacao nibs are used in the mash, in the whirlpool, and in the fermenter for expressive yet balanced chocolate character buoyed by a pillowy creaminess from the lactose addition in the boil.

• Sierra Nevada - Sierraveza - Light and easy lager. Inspired by the classic cervezas served ice cold by the beach, we created our own take on those light and easy beers born south of the border. Sierraveza is golden and crisp, with a balanced malt flavor and a hit of floral hops that will have you calling out for another round.

•  Key Brewing Bail Money IPA - This West Coast-style India pale ale is the second collaboration between the Dundalk brewery and Bustin Boards, the custom skateboards company based in Baltimore. The first, Speed Wobbles, was for summer, and Bail Money complements the fall season with its strong pine flavor and berry aroma notes, said Key co-founder Mike McDonald.

•  On the Wings on Armageddon - DC Brau - The Mayan calendar predicted the “transition from one world age to another” on December 21, 2012, and DC Brau fulfilled this prophecy by introducing On the Wings of Armageddon, an Imperial IPA unlike any other. The recipe includes Pale Malt, Cara-60, Carapils, and Malted Wheat with Falconer’s Flight hops.

•  Sierra Nevada - The Sampler - A good variety pack hits all the right spots: something light and easy-drinking like our Helles in the Tropics, a spicy and woodsy IPA like Hop Solo, our lush and aromatic Tropical Torpedo IPA, our classic Pale Ale, our cult-favorite Ruthless Rye IPA, and a hint of citrus with Sidecar Orange IPA. Whatever the day--or night--may bring, you're covered with the Sampler.

•  Black Flag Stimulo - Hazy IPA brewed with tons of Oats and Wheat and double dry hopped with Citra/Mosaic/Motueka. Brewed with hazy yeast harvested from our Sapwood Collaboration - Shared Kingdom!

•  Troegs - Nugger Nectar - It’s impossible to forget your first squeeze. Once a year, as the newest humulus lupulus harvest arrives at Tröegs, we blend these super-fresh hops into an Imperial Amber Ale. Excessively dry-hopped, Nugget Nectar is an explosion of pine, resin and mango.

• Oliver Brewing - Shaken Not Stirred - Whiskey sour inspired nitro ale brewed with cherry-Orange peel, Lemon, Lactose Oak.
  

• Tussock Jumper Malbec

• Alma De Los Andes Reserva Malbec

ANGELS ENVY FINISHED RYE

As malcontents, we’re particular about our whiskey. When we decided to release a rye, we knew it had to be something special to live up to the amazing response received by our bourbon finished in port barrels. Angel’s Envy Rye Finished in Rum Barrels is genuinely unique and worthy of Master Distiller Lincoln Henderson’s legacy.

The taste profile of rye whiskey was a perfect fit for a rum cask finish. After sampling over 100 rums to find the right flavor to complement rye whiskey, the team’s decision was unanimous.

Angel’s Envy spends up to 18 months finishing in Caribbean rum casks, resulting in an immensely complex whiskey. The mingling of raw, spicy and earthy rye with the mellow sweetness of rum finishing creates an incomparably smooth and drinkable whiskey, even at 100 proof..

Thomas H. Handy Sazerac

Named after the New Orleans bartender who first used rye whiskey in the Sazerac Cocktail, this uncut and unfiltered Straight Rye Whiskey is bottled directly from the barrel, just as it was over a century ago. Full of rich flavors, this authentic American rye whiskey is a symbol of the timeless history of New Orleans and the legacy of Thomas H. Handy.

TASTING NOTES:

Powerful, lush, and boldly spicy. Flavors of toffee, fig cake, and candied fruit, followed by mint, cinnamon and clove. The finish ultimately reveals subtle notes of allspice, coconut and nutmeg. Long and warm.

NOTE: Every month we will be raffling a bottle of Thomas Handy Sazerac. Very limited quantities of this most sought after Rye Whiskey. Please see a store associate for further details.

• Barrel - The Infinite Barrel Project is a whiskey geek’s infinity bottle on a larger scale. According to Barrell Craft Spirits, “The intent is to create an ever-changing whiskey blended from barrels of mature whisk(e)y. We began by selecting barrels for their flavor contribution and complexity and blending them in a larger single, or ‘Infinite’ vessel. At each bottling, we’ll remove a portion of that whiskey and replace it with other barrels that will complement the remaining blend. We'll then repeat the process - bottling a portion and adding newly selected whiskeys each time.” Unlike a solera process, which strives for consistency over time and blends within a series of cascading barrels, the end goal of the Infinite Barrel Project is to create a unique whiskey with each release. With the Infinite Barrel Project, many whiskey barrels, or fractions of barrels, are combined into a single vessel.

• The GlenDronach 18 years old has been named after the renowned founder of the distillery, James Allardice. This exceptional sherried single malt is non chill filtered and of natural color.

• Figenza Fig Vodka - Mixed drinks and cocktail recipes around the world are calling for something new, innovative and refreshing, and Figenza delivers.
