In our last issue, we offered some craft beer recommendations from Stout to Witbier. This time, we have a few more consideratons for you beer lovers out there. Again, you can find any of these tasty brews at either Bikini Beer (900 College Hill Dr.) or Joe\u2019s Craft Beer (2570 W. Jackson Ave.). <\/span><\/p>\n

So no matter how you say it\u2014Cheers, Gesondheid, Sant\u00e9, Prost, Sei gesund, Sk\u00e5l<\/em>…\u2014always be sure to be safe and responsible, and have fun!<\/span>
\n\"\"Porter<\/strong> <\/span>\u2013 a dark style of beer in the tradition of brown beer made from brown malt. The name is a result of the popularity of this beer with street and river porters in London in the 18th century.<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Shipyard Imperial Porter (Portland, Maine, USA):<\/strong><\/span> One porter that is a must is this Imperial Porter from Shipyard Brewing Company. The taste of bitter smooth coffee and chocolatey texture meets the mouth upon first taste and the finale is a perfect blend of a caramel malty porter. For those who want to jump into the porter realm of good beers this is a highly recommended starter.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Doppelbock – <\/span><\/strong>a stronger, maltier variant of a bock, a strong lager of German origin.<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Ayinger Celebrator (Aying, Germany):<\/strong><\/span> One taste is all that is required for even the most novice beer enthusiasts to see why this beer has won 4 Platinum Awards in various World Beer Festivals. Its silky smooth and sweet full bodied taste make the Celebrator one of the most popular and recommended beers in the world. Its rich dark brown color mixes perfectly in a sweet mild effervescent taste that fills the mouth leaving behind a lingering bubbly sweetness sensation. Another highly recommended beer for all those yet to be blessed by this highly awarded beer.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Weihenstephaner Korbinian (Freising, Germany):<\/span> <\/strong>The recurring trend here is doppelbock is a great beer type for everyone to try and this final recommendation is no exception. Weihenstephaner is the world\u2019s oldest brewery, and they have nearly perfected beer brewing. The Korbinian is a rich deep brown in color, and has a full bodied tingling sweetness that leaves the mouth wanting more, which is why it is sold in bottles over one pint in volume.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"IPA –<\/span> <\/strong><\/span>India Pale Ale or IPA is a style of beer within the broader category of pale ale, beers brewed from pale malts.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Dogzilla Black IPA (Ponderay, Idaho, USA):<\/strong><\/span> Black IPAs are naturally more smooth than their paler relatives thanks to the roasted dark malts included in the brewing. This Black India Pale Ale from the Laughing Dog Brewery is packed with dark roasted maltiness and smooth bitterness from hops. The initial taste is of roasted malt with a fore taste that is slightly tinted with hops and a lingering after taste of roasted dark malts. This is a recommended beer for those who want to like an IPA but cannot get past the strong bitterness that accompanies a traditional India Pale Ale.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
