Brewed with Pilsner and wheat malts, American yeast, and one pound per gallon of fresh tart and sweet cherry puree. Honor Sonic Boom IPA - Imperial / 8% ABV / 70 IBU / 240 CAL / Arcola, VA / Prepare to be blown away by this double IPA dry-hopped with insane amounts of dank and juicy Mosaic, Citra, and Azacca. A light golden haze of wheat and oats support a burst of hops on the nose and palate. A swift punch of flavor, directly to your taste buds! Juicy Brewing Luminous - CE - Citra Ekuanot IPA - American / 7.2% ABV / 40 IBU / 216 CAL / Herndon, VA / A refreshing new take on a timeless classic, featuring only the highest quality German malts and meticulous layers of Hop Character added from 5 separate hops used to brew this beer. Mango, Citrus, and Peach dominate the aromatics. Upon first sip grapefruit, melon, subtle pine, and a light malty toast dance on the palette in harmony. Finishing surprisingly smooth with clean hop character. Juicy Brewing Mega Fresh - MBPM Mango Blackberry Peach Marshmallow Sour - Smoothie / 6% ABV / 180 CAL / Herndon, VA / Mango Blackberry Peach Marshmallow smoothie sour. Made with real fruit. Contains lacto. Mega Fresh is a series showcasing real fruit smoothie like sour creations. Left Hand Milk Stout Nitro Stout - Milk / 6% ABV / 25 IBU / 180 CAL / Longmont, CO / POUR HARD! Dark & delicious, America’s milk stout will change your perception about what a stout can be. Pouring hard out of the bottle, Milk Stout Nitro cascades beautifully, building a tight, thick head like hard whipped cream. The aroma is of brown sugar and vanilla cream, with hints of roasted coffee. The pillowy head coats your upper lip and its creaminess entices your palate. Initial roasty, mocha flavors rise up, with slight hop & roast bitterness in the finish. The rest is pure bless of milk chocolate fullness. Famous for their Nitro series, Left Hand Brewing was the first craft brewery to release a bottled nitrogenated beer. For the best experience, pour hard at 180 degrees into a 16oz glass. Different gas, different pour. Cheers! #PourHard Left Hand Pumpkin Spice Latte Nitro Pumpkin / 7% ABV / 210 CAL / Longmont, CO / Pumpkin ale with spices and coffee O'Connor El Guapo Agave IPA IPA - American / 7.5% ABV / 70 IBU / 225 CAL / Norfolk, VA / El Guapo — which, translated, means “the handsome one” — looks sexy, smells beautiful, and tastes great! It is a medium-bodied, agave-infused India Pale Ale, with a grassy, citrus nose and notes of sweet caramel, that finishes with a smooth but strong bitterness. Old Ox Black Ox Porter - Other / 6% ABV / 20 IBU / 180 CAL / Ashburn, VA / A robust rye porter with hints of coffee and chocolate nicely balanced with a subtle hop influence. A substantial, malty ale, complex and flavorful with a medium body and a slightly roasty finish. The rich dark color is deceptively refreshing. The spice in the rye clears the palate. A sip will explain why we say this is a delightful combination of sweet and spicy! Perennial Artisan Ales Pharmacy Porter Porter - Baltic / 6% ABV / 180 CAL / St Louis, MO / Though rare the German Porter found its beginnings in the early portion of the 20th Century. Brewed with a base of Munich I and Vienna, with additions of Caramunich and Carafa for color
