American Porter And Stout
Ah, American Porter and Stout, the dark and roasty crew! This style brings deep, rich flavors that are perfect for cozying up with when the weather gets chilly. American Porters tend to be a bit lighter and slightly sweeter than their British cousins, with notes of chocolate, coffee, and caramel. The head is thick and creamy. Meanwhile, American Stouts are inky black with robust roasted malts and plenty of bitterness to balance it out. They can pack quite an alcoholic punch too!
Red IPA
Hey there hophead! Let’s talk about big, bold Red IPAs. As the name implies, Red IPAs blend the caramel maltiness of an American Amber Ale with the hoppy bitterness of an IPA. They pour a fiery reddish-copper color. You’ll immediately notice the citrusy, piney, tropical American hop aromas and flavors. But there’s also a sturdy caramel malt backbone providing balance and a smooth mouthfeel.

Beer Hops
Records indicate that the first man to have had beer lived around 9,000 years ago. Curiously though, it’s not been long since people started using hops as a preservative for beers, or for adding aroma and flavor. Today, not using hops for the beer is unthinkable. It not only conserves the freshness of the product but also improves the beer taste. Your favorite drink is sure to smell different.
