Mike began roasting coffee more than 20 years ago as a personal pursuit, driven by curiosity and a desire to understand what makes coffee truly great. What started as a hobby gradually became an obsession with quality, process, and precision. In 2016, he founded Encore Coffee to bring thoughtfully sourced, freshly roasted coffee to his local community. In 2021, Mike expanded Encore to include bean-to-bar chocolate, applying the same philosophy and hands-on approach. Each chocolate bar is made from ethically sourced cacao and crafted from scratch at Encore’s Kansas City facility. His work has earned national recognition, including multiple awards from the Craft Chocolate Challenge. Mike remains deeply involved in every aspect of production — from sourcing green coffee and cacao to roasting, refining, and final quality evaluation. His focus is simple: create products that are honest, approachable, and exceptional in flavor. Encore Coffee & Chocolate reflects Mike’s belief that great coffee and chocolate don’t need to be complicated — just carefully sourced, skillfully crafted, and made with intention. https://www.beantobarstool.com/episodes/collab-part-1 monthly 0.5 2026-04-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/36890f58-4174-4823-b3ab-8fc46c406aa0/Ratza+Hopped+Citrus+%282%29.JPG Episodes - Collaboration for Chocolate Makers Part 1: Why Do It, and General Considerations - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611001357088-S86T72OYJ1H2N386N6PY/Anna+ps+Blind+Bob%27s+20191020+%281%29+cropped.jpg Episodes - Collaboration for Chocolate Makers Part 1: Why Do It, and General Considerations The music for this episode is by my dear friend, indie folk musician Anna ps.

His debut release, a ginger-infused Riesling, launched at the beginning of 2025, quickly sold out, and recently won the top prize at the Crafted for Action pitch competition.

He previously founded a Y Combinator-backed edtech startup that reached over a million users globally. A Columbia University alum with a background in software engineering and product design, Kumi now channels his technical and entrepreneurial experience into building a wine label that connects diasporic legacy, flavor, and storytelling. https://www.beantobarstool.com/episodes/tea-chocolate-estelle-tracy monthly 0.5 2025-08-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611001357088-S86T72OYJ1H2N386N6PY/Anna+ps+Blind+Bob%27s+20191020+%281%29+cropped.jpg Episodes - Pairing Tea and Chocolate with Estelle Tracy The music for this episode is by my dear friend, indie folk musician Anna ps.

Pairings Belgian Dark Strong Ales with Craft Chocolate St. Bernardus Christmas Ale is a more indulgent example of a Belgian Quad, with a fuller body and a bit of residual sweetness. The brewery is not connected to a monastery, but they used to contract brew Westvleteren 12, so they’re highly esteemed among brewers of this style. The beer balances out the black tea notes of Argencove’s Apoyo Nicaragua 70% bar to create the impression of acidic caramel over raisins. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/ee1794c1-13cb-4b38-a1d7-364147e485ff/Chimay+Grande+Reserve+with+Firetree+Philippines+Mindanao+Island++%283%29.JPG Blog - Pairings Belgian Dark Strong Ales with Craft Chocolate Grande Réserve is the most regal and esteemed of the Chimay line of Trappist ales. Grande Réserve was first brewed in 1954 as a Christmas beer before eventually migrating to the year-round list. Grande Réserve has notes of plum and dried fruits, with a creamy and full perception that belies a relatively dry body. You might pick up flavors of dark, sweet bread, and as the beer ages, you might get more oxidative flavors of tobacco or sherry. One bar in particular that dances gracefully with this bold beer is Firetree Philippines Mindanao Island 73%, an earthy, “chocolatey” bar with subtle fruit notes of orange and banana. The pairing yielded the impression of rich brownies made with a fruity chocolate origin. For two complex halves, the whole was luxuriously simple. https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/midwest-craft-chocolate-festival-2025-preview monthly 0.5 2025-11-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/c6189671-4b08-474d-baae-7d8be983d715/MCCF+202411+%282%29.jpg Blog -

Pairing Bourbon Barrel-Aged Beers with Craft Chocolate - Warped Wing Baltic with Omnom Caramel Warped Wing in my stomping grounds of Dayton, Ohio, releases a coveted BBA Imperial Stout each December called Whiskey Rebellion, but this BBA Baltic Porter released each spring to less fanfare is quietly my favorite BBA beer they put out. The lower roast intensity allows for more chocolatey notes to move forward, and the barrel character interacts with that chocolate base luxuriously. This beer works well with several bars I’ve tried, including Stranger Belize 70% and Firetree Solomon Islands Guadalcanal 40% Milk, but absolutely sings with Omnom Caramel, a 50% milk chocolate bar with Nicaraguan cacao and house-made caramel. It’s not a complicated pairing—caramel, vanilla, and rich-but-regal dark chocolate, with an impression of really good chocolate liqueur—but it’s such an indulgent tasting experience. I plan to find a way to include this combo in a professional pairing soon! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/e60f7478-0b33-4cd2-9b14-9144fbde2b30/Central+Waters+Bourbon+Barrel+Barleywine+Ale+with+Crow+%26+Moss+Vanilla+Smoke+%282%29.JPG Blog - Pairing Bourbon Barrel-Aged Beers with Craft Chocolate - Central Waters Bourbon Barrel Barleywine Ale with Crow & Moss Vanilla Smoke Chocolate BBA Barleywines typically have a higher level of sweetness than BBA Stouts, but this can be balanced a bit by potential hop bitterness or even the oak character itself. Central Waters in Wisconsin released this Brewer’s Reserve BBA Barleywine a little while back, and it has a bit of bitterness that tempers the sweet bran muffin, toffee, and dark fig jam flavors of the malt, accented by the caramel of the bourbon. This beer pairs well with a few different smoked bars featuring sweet smoke profiles, but pairs best with Crow & Moss Vanilla Smoke, a classic 69% dark chocolate with hickory-smoked cacao. Vanilla and spice rush to the forefront, with the deeper caramel and sweeter smoke coming in behind. https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/debunking-lager-misconceptions monthly 0.5 2026-01-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/9ee3d495-98b5-4236-8fca-cca668e950b8/U+Medvidku+beers.jpg Blog -

The coconut pulls forward the chocolate notes in both beers, while the creamy mouthfeel tames the hops in the Porter a bit. These are both simple pairings, but delightful. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/327603fc-0533-4f35-9dd3-9bd5959cf1d1/Patric+The+Salty+Cow+Chocolate+%283%29.JPG Blog - Pairing Standard-Strength Porters & Stouts with Craft Chocolate - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/fg01-city-built monthly 0.5 2024-07-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/17ef2aab-102b-4935-ad16-d9a96b84641c/Issue+01+cover+no+border.PNG Blog - The Art of City Built Brewing - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/e0240aaa-29d2-49ca-9e34-0fe538273a69/EdwinCollazo1.jpg Blog - The Art of City Built Brewing - Make it stand out Edwin Collazo (photo by Steph Harding) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/3d36ba82-58c5-4d0a-863c-0ec2b5519b67/CBBC_fluffy-unicorns_01.png Blog - The Art of City Built Brewing - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/babf0a38-1c71-48f9-8ff9-5a4f71aa9605/CBBC_go-go-juice_01.png Blog - The Art of City Built Brewing - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/7261f990-4ecd-4d19-b261-a3622df2e94f/CBBC_premium-select-golden_02.png Blog - The Art of City Built Brewing - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/e8ae462a-2b65-4f9c-9927-e6f0200748be/CBBC_fluffy-unicorns_02.png Blog - The Art of City Built Brewing - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/kitu-chocolate monthly 0.5 2024-07-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/e425e9f4-1fd1-46dc-a978-f52021c07e4f/Kitu+20240611+phone+%281%29+cropped.jpg Blog - Kitu Chocolate in Quito, Ecuador - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/f4bf11b3-725f-43a9-8e25-d75167df97e9/Kitu+20240611+phone+%282%29.jpg Blog - Kitu Chocolate in Quito, Ecuador - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/5914bfce-ed5c-4ffd-b447-d250db071af1/Kitu+Togte+65%25.JPG Blog - Kitu Chocolate in Quito, Ecuador - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/466ca808-e0b2-4ead-b778-7e9f4231d4de/Kitu+Ishpingo+65%25.JPG Blog - Kitu Chocolate in Quito, Ecuador - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/pairing-fruited-sour-ales-with-craft-chocolate monthly 0.5 2025-07-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/3fd3a1c8-8a9a-4c8c-bae7-fda903834a00/Pairing+book+with+beer+%26+chocolate+%285%29.JPG Blog - Pairing Fruited Sour Ales with Craft Chocolate - Make it stand out Click the picture to learn more about my book Pairing Beer & Chocolate! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1f062e21-55e4-4be0-84fc-878309d25cbc/Urban+Artifact+Teak+with+Chequessett+Maushop%27s+Smoke+%283%29.JPG Blog - Pairing Fruited Sour Ales with Craft Chocolate - Example: The savory and weathered meets the bright and fresh in this pairing. Urban Artifact is a Cincinnati brewery that brews exclusively fruited sour ales, and their Teak Tropical Fruit Tart is brewed with pineapple, pink guava, and key limes. Chequessett Maushop’s Smoke is a 65% dark milk bar made with elderberry, oat milk, and smoked Lapsang Souchong tea. The bar brings wood smoke, tea leaves, and soft berry that blanket over the pops of vibrant tropical fruit and tartness in Teak. Contrasting berry and lime/guava flit over a foggy bank of driftwood campfire smoke, the acidity tempered by the smoke and cream. Lovely. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/22f87539-fd8b-435d-867e-3a25b1bc1a77/Third+Eye+Third+Eye+Kandy+v.4+with+Not+Yr+Sweetie+Not+Accepting+Your+Terms+%283%29.JPG Blog - Pairing Fruited Sour Ales with Craft Chocolate - A Note on “Smoothie” Sours “Smoothie” or “Milkshake” Sours combine assertive fruit with vanilla and lactose to turn a quick sour ale into a fruity dessert. These beers sometimes get dunked on, but they can be delicious when made well. These beers have the sweetness and body to reach out to a wide range of chocolates, but they can do surprisingly well with bars that have earthy or savory inclusions with subtly sweet leanings—beets, smoke, mushrooms, etc. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/4cbb06e2-007e-45c6-b908-9fae179d0afe/Jolly+Pumpkin+La+Roja+du+Kriek+with+Amedei+Tosacano+Red+%281%29.JPG Blog - Pairing Fruited Sour Ales with Craft Chocolate - Examples: Jolly Pumpkin La Roja du Kriek from Michigan is a cherry-infused version of their classic La Roja, their interpretation of a Flanders Red Ale. This is a blended sour ale made with cherries, and it balances tart cherry Jolly Rancher flavors with a touch of oak, a hint of Juicy Fruit gum-like spice, and a moderately dry finish. Amadei Toscano Red is a 70% dark chocolate made with dried cherries, strawberries, and raspberries. Together, the fruity acidity of the beer seems to breathe new life into the bar’s fruit inclusions, lending the impression of chocolate-covered berries. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/e2c27b2e-232a-4952-a760-d941be962c8b/Odious+Cellars+Rubied+Perspectives+with+Manoa+Ghost+Pepper+%281%29.JPG Blog - Pairing Fruited Sour Ales with Craft Chocolate - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/f5df3625-1d98-4988-8d72-f1f34ca7c83b/Upland+Prim+with+Map+Bilberry+Soup+%288%29.JPG Blog - Pairing Fruited Sour Ales with Craft Chocolate - Wild Card: This is a curious example that blurs some of the [already loose] lines we’ve drawn above. It’s a barrel-aged, mixed-ferm sour, but it’s assertively fruited and moderately sweet. Upland Prim is a barrel-aged sour brewed with cardamom and plums, and it’s a spectacular exploration of flavor. It balances tart and sweet throughout the sip, with layers of icebox plums and candied plum tinted with gin-like prickles from the cardamom. It’s a very cocktail-like beer, like a brighter but also somehow cooler twist on a Dark & Stormy with the fruit and spice playing off each other. With a complex beer, it’s best to offer simple pleasures from a chocolate to pair with it. I went with Map’s Bilberry Soup bar (yes, I still have bits and pieces hanging around…but not for much longer) made with bilberries (European blueberries), sourdough crumbs, and cinnamon. The pairing is both rich and gentle, with notes of blueberry and sweet pickled beets forming the foundation, accented with cinnamon, cardamom, and clove, but all laid-back and inviting. https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/wah-gwaan monthly 0.5 2024-06-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/d7a1d2e5-12bb-4b89-90cf-733661ee7c8a/Wah+Gwaan+It+Was+All+a+Dream+20221008+%287%29.JPG Blog - It Was All a Dream: Brief Thoughts on Losing Unique Breweries - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/somerville-aeronaut-baltic monthly 0.5 2024-06-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/bd975c11-6d69-4c4e-af31-39c59034ff46/Somerville+Beer+Soaked+Chocolate+65%25+Baltic+Heavy+Roast+%284%29.JPG Blog - Somerville Chocolate & Aeronaut Brewing’s Baltic Porter Experiment - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/18718d72-cbff-40f6-9f0c-341cbd02ea67/Somerville+Beer+Soaked+Chocolate+65%25+Baltic+Light+Roast+Vanilla+%282%29.JPG Blog - Somerville Chocolate & Aeronaut Brewing’s Baltic Porter Experiment - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/beer-basics-yeast-amp-fermentation monthly 0.5 2024-05-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1713204515864-0UJGC5SIQOOSDKFYUIKM/Morebeer+yeast+%287%29.JPG Blog - Beer Basics: Yeast & Fermentation - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/f3dcb854-4e6a-4047-a004-d2c650770cdb/Landing+flight+20210703.JPG Blog - Beer Basics: Yeast & Fermentation - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/na-beer-with-chocolate monthly 0.5 2024-05-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/17586f27-df1d-4b04-85c5-d6ed532908ef/Pairing+Book+cover+front.png Blog - Pairing Non-Alcoholic Craft Beer with Chocolate - Make it stand out Click to order the Pairing Beer & Chocolate book!

The bright tartness that announces the beer diminishes slowly to reveal warm, rich hickory wood and leaves. The acidity recedes to the shade and undergrowth and halos the complexity of this most evocative of woods. I can’t think of a better way to have greeted 2023. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/61786673-8ee1-47f3-80bb-ddeafb728e36/Zebulon+Original+IPA+Circa+1840+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2023 - Zebulon Original IPA Circa 1840 Zebulon Artisan Ales in North Carolina is consistently taking on some of the coolest brewing projects, and their effort here to brew a beer similar to some of the first true India Pale Ales of the early 19th century is a great example. The beer is brewed with 100% Maris Otter malt and East Kent Goldings hops, fermented with a Burton yeast strain, and aged for a year in oak with Brettanomyces. The result is fascinating. First off, the beer is startlingly clear. It almost shines in the glass. The aroma balances bready malt with light minerality and acidity and a touch of earthy funk. On the tongue it’s very bitter (160 calculated IBUs), but an old world bitterness without the palate-filling quality of PNW hops, and a more planty, tea-like flavor to the hops. The combination of bready malt, high attenuation, and subtle Brett funk makes the beer read almost Belgian. Beyond bread, white pepper and pear pudding show through. It’s widely understand Orval Trappist Ale is a Belgian adaptation of older English Pale Ales, and you can see the relationship clearly here. I want more of this. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/a7baa3f8-770c-4344-9810-59550db3f360/Wren+House+Black+Excellence++%286%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2023 - Wren House Black Excellence My friend Tyler Cagwin at Nostalgia Chocolate sent me this beer, as it was brewed with his cacao. This Imperial Stout is a three-way collaboration between Wren House, Brewz Brothaz, and Eastern Market Brewing, and features coffee, cacao, and vanilla all from Africa—a celebration of Black excellence, which this beer definitely is. The aroma leads with fresh and spicy coffee and dark milk chocolate with a touch of roasted grain and a hint of a mild dark fruit—dates, perhaps?—coming in behind. The coffee is more restrained on the palate and blends in with the chocolate, with the vanilla in support. The body is dry but ample, and there’s some gentle roast acidity that’s just enough to accentuate the hop and roast bitterness without jumping out. There are some mild fruit notes from the cacao. This really is excellent. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/580e6451-23a9-4655-b24c-1f4a378878d5/Rabid+Morningstar+DIPA+glass++%282%29.jpg Blog - Favorite Beers of 2023 - Rabid Morningstar DIPA Rabid’s hazy game is on point, and they deserve more hype for their demon-named hop monsters than they get. Morningstar is all juicy tropical fruit in the aroma—sweet honeydew and cantaloupe, overripe mango—with just a hint of diesel. The flavor adds a bit of grapefruit zest and just enough bitterness to balance it all out. There’s only so much you can say about an excellent Hazy that hasn’t already been said, but there’s only so much you need to when it tastes this good. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/ad3c548d-89e0-461f-aa95-70aad2586218/Yellow+Springs+Haiku+to+Ninkasi+20230304+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2023 - Yellow Springs Haiku to Ninkasi Japanese Rice Lager On a sunny Saturday afternoon in early March we hung out on the Yellow Springs patio sipping Haiku to Ninkasi, their excellent new Japanese Rice Lager with cascade hops brewed for International Women’s Day. The beer is brewed in collaboration with Urban Artifact—who brewed a separate beer called Suzy & Jane—and benefits a women’s scholarship to the Cincinnati State Brewing Science program. The beer was amazing—crisp and snappy with floral hop notes and a bready but light malt foundation. Perfect for sipping in the sun on an early spring day. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/50f96d69-88a5-426a-9d05-2e229241543f/Warped+Wing+Pilot+Series+Dusseldorf+Altbier+20230414+%282%29.jpg Blog - Favorite Beers of 2023 - Warped Wing Pilot Series Dusseldorf Altbier I spent some time at Warped Wing’s downtown taproom on a sunny April afternoon before an evening event I was leading across town and had their gorgeous Pilot Series Dusseldorf Altbier. The Pilot Series is for small batch, draft only beers, and give Warped Wing’s brewers a chance to brew classic styles that might not sell well enough for packaging. The beer poured a beautiful burnished copper color, and the impression of malt sweetness up front is whisked away by moderate bitterness and a dry finish. Toasty, mildly spicy. Perfect. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/ceb1e774-893a-484e-b226-af8999268160/BH+La+Trappe+Quadrupel+20230426+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2023 - La Trappe Quadrupel I forgot how good La Trappe Quadrupel is. Our favorite local beer bar, The Barrel House, had this on and we got it in on a flight on a lovely spring evening. It’s perfect. This was the last beer we had on the final night of our last trip to Belgium several years back, and I need to have it more often. So good. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/963c80ba-e533-4de8-90a8-49912b48eb4a/Noble+Beast+Piwo+Grodziskie+20230513.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2023 - Noble Beast Piwo Godziskie There is something magical about a 3.5% ABV beer that’s packed full of flavor. Grodziskie is a weird style—light, crisp, and…smoky. Made with smoked malt but with a lighter toucher than Bamberg’s Rauchbier, Grodsizkie or Gratzer is as easy drinking style meant to be consumed in volume, but nonetheless packs a wallop of flavor. This was my first round in Noble Beast’s beautiful taproom at the beginning of a fun afternoon with friends. I want a beer like this around all the time. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/fee338a8-5b83-4f2a-ac92-3f3118293eff/Masthead+Far+from+the+Tree+20230513+%285%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2023 - Masthead Far from the Tree This 14.3% beer is an Imperial Stout aged in a single apple brandy barrel blended with maple Wheatwine. I wrote in my notes , “caramel and raisin and apple, oh my.” Milk chocolate and caramel-covered raisins with a glaze of maple sugar. Not too sweet. Not hot. So good. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/05e9ebb5-1899-4066-a381-451621740b07/Hailstorm+Prairie+Madness+IPA+20230525+%283%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2023 - Hailstorm Prairie Madness IPA A perfect old school Midwest IPA. The 2017 GABF gold medal American IPA offers pine, orange peel and pith, and candied grapefruit with sticky malt holding it all together, but it’s not too sweet. 2009 never tasted so good. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/cd78f5c0-7b2c-4156-af84-9e81d93f4feb/Hopleaf+de+Garre+Tripel+20230526+%282%29.jpg Blog - Favorite Beers of 2023 - Tripel van de Garre Down an impossibly narrow alley in Bruges, Belgium, sits De Garre, a little bar whose house Tripel has an unofficial three-round limit. At 11.5% ABV, it’s both potent and palliative. This used to be the only place in the world to get it—and where we first tried it—but it can now be found here and there at America’s best beer bars. On a sunny May day in Chicago we spent some time in Hopleaf, a Belgian beer lover’s heaven, and holding the de Garre glass and taking that first sip of this powerful beer just felt right. It felt like we’d gone farther than Illinois to get it, for sure. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/3263f8d1-f7fd-4b89-adba-1c8b3aa61afb/Fuzzyline+Matcha+Latte+Ale+20230701+%283%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2023 - Fuzzyline Matcha Latte Every summer we visit friends in northwest Indiana, which means we’ve gotten to know a lot of the breweries up there over many years of visits. This July we stopped in at Fuzzyline in Highland and I fell hard for this Matcha Latte beer with matcha, lactose, vanilla, and honey. Sounds like a mess, but it’s brewed with restraint and a thoughtful eye from concept to finished beer. It doesn’t have to be what you’d order, but they nailed what they were going for, and I had more than one. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/23ecc51c-68db-4591-acf9-a9907f9910c5/Fifth+Street+Brewpub+Pappy+Schmidion+Damme.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2023 - 2018 Fifth Street Brewpub Barrel Aged Pappy Schmidion Damme This Belgian Dark Strong Ale aged in a Pappy Van Winkle barrel was a bit hot when it first released in early 2018, but time had treated it well when we opened it with a friend on a later summer evening this year. Fresh caramel and vanilla with some sweet bourbon supported the core notes of the beer: fruit tape and rummy baked brioche French Toast. Most beer shouldn’t be aged. This one is proof of concept that a few really do benefit from it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/4994b03b-dc26-42d7-8da4-73110d6397ac/Yellow+Springs+Sunwave+White+IPA+20230818+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2023 - Yellow Springs Sunwave White IPA There just aren’t enough White IPAs being brewed these days. It’s one of my absolute favorites, and I’ll order one whenever I see it, which is rarely. Fortunately, Yellow Springs brews one called Sunwave every summer, and I passed a lovely Friday afternoon in August enjoying a couple pints of this 6.2% ABV beauty. A soft but structured body, moderate bitterness, and a lovely balance of citrus and gentle spice. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/a35c7a5a-68a8-41f9-a153-a657bb52a879/Brooklyn+2015+Black+Ops+20230916+%281%29.jpg Blog - Favorite Beers of 2023 - 2015 Brooklyn Black Ops When we visited Brooklyn Brewery’s taproom in Williamsburg in September, I couldn’t resist ordering a bottle pour of 2015 Black Ops. This was one of the best cellared Imperial Stouts I’ve had. It hadn’t lost the body and gotten hot, which is usually what I run into. An impression of dark chocolate-covered pine needles with some resilient oak and gentle bourbon. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/c505af2f-1912-49d1-bf90-e75bd048832a/GABF+20230921+Fieldwork+Watermelon+Pulp+IPA.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2023 - Fieldwork Watermelon Pulp IPA One of the weirdest-but-best beers I had at GABF was Fieldwork Watermelon Pulp IPA. It’s exactly as advertised - lots of watermelon pulp and rind in a citrusy Hazy IPA. Weird but bright and delicious. If this were available near me, I would drink it all summer long. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/0c76ede0-5900-4afb-9e38-152023863072/GABF+20230922+Deschutes+Hachimatsu+Mai+Honey+Lager.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2023 - Deschutes Hachimatsu Mai Honey Rice Lager Hachimatsu Mai might have been my favorite beer I had at GABF, an incredibly bright lager brewed with puffed jasmine rice, Chilean Ulmo honey, and almost no hops. Flavors of toasted brown rice, violet candy, and honeycomb, and a quiet bouquet of other florals flitting in and out. My notes in my tasting journal started with, “f— that’s good.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/f56ef0c9-6a9c-453d-85ce-cf972b94e455/DRBT+20230922+Cerebral+Vanilla+Rye+Here+Be+Monsters.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2023 - Cerebral Vanilla Rye Here Be Monsters The Denver Rare Beer Tasting is a fundamental absurdity. You’re handed a tasting glass and given four hours to try as many unbelievably rare beers as you want, many of which would command three- or four-digit price tags on the secondary market and have hype geeks salivating. And you don’t taste most of them, walking right past tables of beers you’ll never be offered again, because there’s just too much to try. Cerebral’s liquid tribute to the vanilla orchid stood above the rest for me. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/a0d0bec3-15f4-4411-acbd-648e83fc9a45/GABF+20230921+Radiant+Luxurious+Potential.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2023 - Radiant Luxurious Potential This Black Forest Cake-inspired Bourbon Barrel-Aged Imperial Stout weighs in at 14.0% ABV and is brewed with a blend of Tanzanian Kokoa Kamili and Fijian Rakiraki cacao nibs from Chocolate Alchemy as well as Comoros and Tahitian vanilla beans and montmorency cherries. The final beer is blended from Woodford Reserve 15 year and Weller 12 year bourbon barrels. Some alchemy of the ingredients gave the impression of rum- and maple-soaked raisins covered in dark milk chocolate, with vanilla and a hint of coconut (likely from the cherries and oak). Despite its heft, it finishes just dry enough to make you want another sip. My notes finished “This is how you do it.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/eec9f8af-5132-46d5-9534-3524fd86b86f/GABF+20230922+Third+Eye+%26+Narrow+Path+Mounds+of+Importance.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2023 - Third Eye & Narrow Path Mounds of Importance This collab between Cincinnati-area breweries Third Eye and Narrow Path is built on Third Eye’s former gold medal Milk Stout Higher Purpose and uses Narrow Path’s uniquely toasted coconut. And it’s absolutely glorious, and won silver in the Collab category at GABF to prove it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1e3962a3-20f8-4e2d-bcef-848941597087/Allagash+Foliage+Report++%288%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2023 - Allagash Foliage Report This is an “Autumn Ale” for marketing purposes, but it’s actually a classic Belgian Dubbel, and one of the best I’ve had in a while. Toasty grain and a mulled mix of prune and plum that just smells Belgian. Full on the tongue but light on the finish. An impression of sweet fruit leather that files down into bready, toasty, grain with a dry finish. Gently mouth-warming after a few sips. This is perfect. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/a99af088-b738-4fb8-b879-9e3058238693/Raven+Morrigan+Dry+Stout+at+U+Kunstatu+%282%29.jpg Blog - Favorite Beers of 2023 - Raven The Morrigan Dry Stout While we mostly drank traditional lagers in Prague, we couldn’t resist checking out the country’s growing craft scene. On a rain-soaked evening wandering through the maze of Old Town we finally found our destination, U Kunštátů, a beer bar in a 12th century building offering an extensive bottle list of 21st century Czech craft. We grabbed a 750 of Plzen’s @pivovar_raven Morrigan Dry Irish Stout and sat under a large umbrella in the courtyard as rain hammered the canvas and lamplight glinted off the wet cobblestones. The beer was perfect for the moment, which is all we can ever ask a beer to be. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/25daa5d3-a055-47be-b2da-7a31f846f8a8/Lagerhaus+Klosterbrau+20231105+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2023 - Klosterbrau Rauchbier Among the many well-known breweries in Bamberg, Germany, Kolsterbräu was not one I was terribly familiar with before doing research before our recent trip. It's a bit out of the way—it takes several zigs and zags from the main pedestrian routes through the town's maze-like streets and alleys to even find it—but the search was worth it. I ordered their house Rauchbier—what else for the first pint in Bamberg?—and it was lovely. It's not the standard Rauchbier built on Märzen bones though. It's quite dark, like a strong Schwarzbier, with a bit more bite. A touch of licorice and dry chocolate flits in behind the savory/sweet smoke. We paired it with apple streudel in the late morning on our first day and it was perfect. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/7921376b-df50-4c99-9397-ae49ad47654d/Weyermann+Malt+20231106+%2816%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2023 - Weyermann 50 Smoky Pale Weyermann Specialty Malts has a pilot brewing system and they offer a lot of unique beers from the system in their shop as a way to demonstrate what their malt can do. It’s such a cool idea, and an opportunity to taste some really unique beers, like this Smoky Pale Ale using citrusy American hops and smoked malt. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/b65a1f8b-f5c0-43bc-8687-0433d0389b47/Schlenkerla+%284%29.jpg Blog - Favorite Beers of 2023 - Schlenkerla Weischel The best-known brewery in Bamberg is Schlenkerla, and it was definitely worth the hype. The space is rustic and cozy despite the crowds, and we enjoyed getting to try one-offs that never make it to the states, such as Weischel (a beautiful cherrywood-smoked Rotbier with toasty caramel and soft, sweet wooly smoke notes) and Erle (an alderwood-smoked Schwarzbier). https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/2023-favorite-chocolate monthly 0.5 2023-12-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/d78195be-5b79-4617-977b-edeec7f8a713/Standout+Sambirano+Valley+Madagascar+70%25+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2023 - Standout Chocolate Sambirano Madagascar 70% The gloss on this bar is almost reflective it’s so shiny, and gives a correspondingly hard snap and slow melt on the tongue. As soon as I opened the package and smelled the bar, I wrote down “smells like sunlight.” I realize that’s thoroughly unhelpful, and I don’t know what to tell you. I saw late morning sun shining over low mountains, a warm valley dotted with trees. The bar’s slow melt delivers honey with a warming, fruity acidity carrying red berry, pomegranate, and orange peel as it slowly and silkily dissolves. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/073f998c-63a4-42e4-8f2c-d60b07747b92/Monsoon+Bachelor%27s+Hall+Estate+Jamaica+85%25+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2023 - Monsoon Bachelor’s Hall Estate Jamaica 85% This was, surprisingly, my first ever Monsoon bar, but won’t be my last. A lovely green, floral garden aroma leads off, with notes of lily bud and betel leaf with faint nutmeg and walnut skin. The palate, however, is more indulgent, with cashew butter and frangipane, golden brownie, and toasted nilla wafer. Such a unique and intriguing bar from a maker I need to get to know better. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/dd56a3f4-b20a-41fc-9df4-da697926215d/Chocobien+Aged+70%25+Peru+Criollo+Yirgacheffe++%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2023 - Chocobien Aged 70% Peru Criollo Yirgacheffe 12 Months These little chocolate buttons were aged with Ethiopian Yirgacheffe coffee beans and took on so much character from these bold beans. The aroma is rich mocha, and the flavor adds some gentle spice from the coffee to that mocha base. Very fresh coffee aroma with notes of Vietnamese cinnamon. I used these little buttons in place of chocolate chips in a cookie recipe I came up with using a grassy Jamaicain rum, caramelized bananas, and cinnamon, and it was fantastic. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/8830dfc7-5d14-4b91-93ef-e6e7fcfc078d/Chocolarder+Virunga+Eastern+Congo+75%25+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2023 - Chocolarder Virunga Eastern Congo 75% Confession: This was my first bar from Chocolarder. Spicy florals in the aroma belie fudgy, nutty, brownie batter flavors. Some sweet floral notes, grassiness, and a bit of oak on the finish, along with very mild young strawberry note. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/6bd1607c-de06-43e9-b5ad-c7ca2f69a004/Pump+Street+Crayfish+Bay+Grenada+70%25+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2023 - Pump Street Crayfish Bay Organic Estate Saint Mark Grenada 70% This is such a lovely and unique bar. The aroma hints at notable acidity with notes of tart blueberry, pomegranate, and dried cranberry, with supporting aromas of granola and almond. The flavor is bright but not as acidic as the nose indicated: sweet blueberry and candy cherry, muffin top, and blackberry. Fantastic. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/05422d03-6d4a-4197-ab06-c30b58d9247e/Stranger+70%25+Dominican+Republic+Oko+Caribe+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2023 - Stranger Dominican Republic Oko Caribe 70% My friend London Coe moved heaven and earth to source chocolate from this Ukrainian maker in 2023, and I’m so grateful she did. This bar is gorgeous. The bar is thick and sturdy with a hard snap, but melts silkily with notes of honey and red juju fruit and fig, with rich and regal chocolate all around. Just a touch of salt on the finish. It’s amazing to think something this poised and graceful came out of an area of the world being torn apart by violence. Beautiful. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/b5b0717c-aae5-48d6-aa1e-8a80bd54573a/Chequessett+Maushop%27s+Smoke.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2023 - Chequessett Maushop’s Smoke This 65% dark chocolate is made with elderberry oat milk and smoked Lapsang Souchong tea. The aroma is subtle but beguiling, with fresh wood smoke and light savory meatiness. The palate takes those aromas and soaks them into its architecture, like the smell of barn or a cabin with a fireplace in which every wood surface is saturated in the fires of decades. After that smoke recedes a bit, there’s some vegetal green tea and a very quiet fruitiness and some oatmeal. This bar is most cozy and evocative. Amazing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/6d6b97c3-9e0c-42a8-929d-97db5ead565b/Ratza+JujuBeet.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2023 - Ratza Chocolate JujuBeet 80% Dark I love beets, and I’m excited any time I see a beer or chocolate made with them. Few ingredients offer a combination of earthy funk and comforting sweetness like this (chanterelle mushrooms are another example). Ratza’s JujuBeet bar is an 80% dark chocolate made with beet juice, spirulina (not spirula, as the front of the wrapper says—just a typo), and dried jujube dates. The bar smells like gorp—the nutty trail mix with peanuts, raisins, and often M&Ms or chocolate chips—and there are definitely aspects of that in the flavor as well, though it moves more into dried apple chips and earthy sweet beets with a pleasant balance of sweetness and acidity from the high cacao percentage, with a bit of a vinous impression. https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/2023-favorite-pairings monthly 0.5 2023-12-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/c9a73ba8-83cc-47ee-b985-0b90f43c4451/Burial+Abstract+Oppulence+Illusion+1+with+Manoa+Ali%27i+Kula+Lavender+%283%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate Pairings of 2023 - Burial Abstract Oppulence: Illusion 1 with Manoa Ali’i Kula Lavender 60% Dark Milk The flavor bonds between this big, boozie, Tiki-inspired beer and this floral Hawaiian chocolate and numerous. The beer is an Imperial Cream Ale brewed with pineapple, orange, toasted coconut, rum-soaked raisins, and Tahitian vanilla beans, and it’s a decadent tropical dessert in a glass. Toasted pineapple with caramelized brown sugar crust, sweet shredded coconut, rum-soaked sugar cookie…There’s nothing obscure or sophisticated here, just thoughtful indulgence. The bar, on the other hand, is refined and classy with bright, fragrant lavender blanketed by velvety dark milk chocolate carrying Manoa’s house character of grassy rum. The floral spice of the lavender steers the fruit back from the sweet end of things and creates the impression of lavender peach tart, while the agricole-like spirit behind the bar pulling forward the rum-soaked fruit of the beer. This pairing was a lot, and all of it was good. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/9fef9a58-b374-4a5e-b817-b737a7606f65/Great+Lakes+Nosferatu+with+French+Broad+Malted+Milk+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate Pairings of 2023 - Great Lakes Nosferatu Imperial Red IPA with French Broad Malted Milk 45% The milky caramel of French Broad’s best-selling bar, which is made with malt powder from Riverbend Malt House, syncs up with the deeper crystal malt of the beer to create layers of luxurious. creamy caramel held in a regal, bitter frame by the hops. The old school American hops in the beer lend a touch of candied orange to the dominant caramel. This is pretty much perfect. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/e48d9675-cb7c-45e9-a06e-d7220d4db575/Rochefort+Triple+Extra+with+Manoa+Ali%27i+Kula+Lavender+part+2+%285%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate Pairings of 2023 - Rochefort Triple Extra with Manoa Ali’i Kula Lavender 60% Dark Milk Yep, we’re discussing this bar twice. This bar has become one of my favorite pairing companions this year, showcasing the flexibility dark milk bars can provide, particularly with their creamy mouthfeel and gentle sweetness. Lavender, when used in a restrained way like this, is a great accent seasoning, working with a range of fruit flavors. I paired this with Rochefort Triple Extra, and added one more perfect pairing to the list this bar is capable of. Lavender simple syrup drizzled over caramelized bananas on a chocolate chip waffle crisps. Not too sweet, but sweet enough to keep the lavender and the beer’s yeast phenolics from getting sharp. Yes, yes, yes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1839cd7e-1f32-43f8-9981-b072eb3e75fc/Rabid+Morningstar+with+Hogarth+Giandiua+%285%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate Pairings of 2023 - Rabid Morningstar with Hogarth Gianduia Rabid’s Hazy IPAs are juicy and bright, and I tried their Morningstar Double IPA when my friend Estelle Tracy of 37 Chocolates sent me Hogarth’s Gianduia bar with a hunch beauty would result. I was right. Picture loads of caramel-drenched candied orange peel with a could of milk chocolate and toffee around the edges. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/35bf4dca-fca5-4657-8124-71755c18de11/Urban+Artifact+Teak+with+Chequessett+Maushop%27s+Smoke+%283%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate Pairings of 2023 - Urban Artifact Teak with Chequessett Maushop’s Smoke The savory and weathered meets the bright and fresh in this pairing. Chequessett Maushop’s Smoke brings wood smoke, tea leaves, and soft berry that blanket over the pops of vibrant tropical fruit and tartness in Urban Artifact Teak. Contrasting berry and lime/guava flit over a foggy bank of driftwood campfire smoke, the acidity tempered by the smoke and cream. Lovely. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/494e1a8c-caec-4dc1-8a79-b1c84ca37428/Tynt+Meadow+Trappist+Ale+with+Jcoco+Orange+Blossom+Espresso+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate Pairings of 2023 - Tynt Meadow Trappist Ale with Jcoco Orange Blossom Espresso The robust and nuanced malt and fermentation spice profile of this Trappist ale from England offer the perfect patterned background for this bright and bold bar from Jcoco. You don't go to Jcoco for subtlety, you go for fun, and this bar is a blast with bright, floral orange and fresh espresso against simple dark chocolate. Together you get thyme-spiced orange, espresso, and oak with moderate acidity.

The rich, full coffee is haloed by acidic berry from the cacao, giving it a more espresso-like impression. The roast slope from chocolate to coffee is seamless. So thoughtfully done. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/5924c178-ae89-47e5-8640-3df49555b2ab/Triangle+Roasters+Latte+White+Chocolate+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2022 - Triange Latte White Chocolate + Milk & Espresso Triangle Roasters roast their own coffee and make their own bean to bar chocolate, so it’s only natural their coffee chocolate would be stellar. Their Latte White Chocolate tastes like a caramel macchiato, with some of the freshest roasted coffee flavors I’ve ever tasted in a chocolate bar. Roast and subtle acidity with notes of cinnamon…this is spectacular. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/abb975d5-aac7-468c-b4c0-faa81229f129/Violet+Sky+Rye+Barrel+Aged+Almendra+Blanca+orange+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2022 - Violet Sky Rye Barrel Aged Almendra Blanca I love Violet Sky’s creativity with barrel-aged cacao, and this Rye Barrel-Aged Almendra Blanca is a great example of why. Aging this Mexican cacao in Journeyman rye barrels results in a bar with—surprisingly—gin-like notes initially, with the peppery rye pushing forward juniper and pink peppercorn aromas with notes of red berries and a grassy note than reminded me of Queen Anne’s Lace. The flavor was more what would be expected, with sweet caramel layered over oak, and some sweet, shade-grown dark berries. Absolutely stunning. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/712ecb13-d939-42fb-8cb9-3504e18c5f75/Not+Yr+Sweetie+Not+Sacrificing+My+Self+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2022 - Not Yr Sweetie Not Sacrificing Myself This 55% vegan oatmilk bar is made with cardamom and coffee, and Tanzanian cacao from Kokoa Kamili. Released as part of Not Yr Sweetie’s Gender Pay Gap collection, the percentage in this bar represents the $.55 Latina women make on the male dollar. The bar is bright and warm, with coffee and warm spice riding over grape, red berry, and moderate acidity. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/fe116755-aafc-47d6-ae97-48c66461a0e7/Miette+et+Chocolat+Lady+Justice+Cerebral+chocolate+20221006.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2022 - Miette et Chocolat Beer Chocolate with Cerebreal & Lady Justice Lady Justice and Cerebral Brewing collaborated on an Imperial Stout called Unconfirmed Details, which was aged in Laws whiskey barrel and conditioned on Ecuadorian cacao nibs from Miette et Chocolat and coconut. The cacao nibs had been aged in empty an empty Laws barrel first and then added to the Stout. After they were removed, Miette dried them back out and made a bar from them. The bar had a lovely rippled mold, and combined flavors of cocoa powder, oak, brownie, and subtle cherry. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1521b8db-9dcf-460b-9e43-4559fe23e1ec/Seattle+Chocolate+Apple+Pie+a+la+Mode+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2022 - Seattle Apple Pie a la Mode Seattle Chocolate Apple Pie a la Mode is probably my favorite seasonal bar I’ve had this year. Indulgent but defined, with waves of apple, caramel, cream, and regal dark chocolate holding it all in, with flits of cinnamon and muffin crumble. Love love love. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/19627b01-0b14-46db-9304-ed9e2edd7744/Cacaosuyo+Lakuna+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2022 - Cacaosuyo Lakuna Peru 70% This Lakuna Peru 70% was my first bar from Cacaosuyo, and I was pretty pleased. The aroma was rich and lively, with dark fruit and light peppery/floral spice, and on the flavor a warm acidity deep beneath the chocolate notes led to butter, banana, honey, brownie, strawberry, and a hint of sunny orange. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/a9fae0c1-e794-4307-8ee8-a9eb7f5e4011/Seattle+Chocolate+Jcoco+Orange+Blossom+Espresso+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2022 - Jcoco Orange Blossom Espresso 61% This is one of the most surprising bars I had this year. More candy than anything, perhaps, but delightful in its brightness. Candied orange peel, lightly spicy and nutty coffee, and all housed in classic chocolate. Winter sunlight, sweet but bright. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/6965c5c4-a424-479c-b5ca-b745906ee5a5/Chocolate+Naive+Black+Sauna+%283%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2022 - Chocolate Naive Black Sauna There is something deep in the northern forests of the world that tugs at my heart, and a thread of it is buried in this bar from Chocolate Naive. I’ve never smelled a bar like it, and it popped images into my head rapid fire—mushrooms, forest moss, oak, cedar, a pine box filled with old quilts that’s been opened for the first time in years. A dark northern forest. The birch and pine forests of the Upper Peninsula, the ground spongy beneath your feet, a campfire far away through the trees. It’s all here in this bar. I can already tell it’s going to be gone too quickly. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/e53f1953-e7b3-4324-8445-4cd898033015/Violet+Sky+Philippines+Malah+Na+Bulong+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2022 - Violet Sky Philippines Malah Na Bulong 77% Malah Na Bulong is one of Uncommon Cacao’s newest origins, and it led with strong cocoa and slight woody notes on the aroma with just a touch of herbal spice, which led to an intense barely-sweetened hot cocoa flavor with a touch of vanilla and the moderate bitterness and slight astringency common to Violet Sky’s roast profile. This strikes me as an origin that would be ideal for using in chocolate beer, where that straight-ahead chocolatey flavor with some vanilla and earthiness could really help. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/2743bcae-0e90-4327-9825-8d1ac57f994c/Latitude+Dark+Milk.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2022 - Latitude Dark Milk This bar leans toward the “milk” rather than the “dark” at 49%, but its silky smooth texture and straight ahead chocolateliness has made it a lovely pairing bar, and an easy treat on many a work afternoon. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/23d9446d-f6fe-4d65-a461-3326b10d0b66/Hogarth+Maple+Walnut+White+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2022 - Hogarth Maple & Walnut Nothing complicated here, just nostalgic childhood indulgence. I remember visiting fudge shops as a child when we would travel, and maple walnut fudge was always my favorite. One sniff of this bar, one bite, and I’m back enjoying those free samples and hoping my parents will buy some. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/5d5245fb-da1a-4d63-bb24-581e9536cf0b/Manoa+O%27ahu+Island+Ko%27olaupoko.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2022 - Manoa O’ahu Island Ko’olaupoko 70% I could have chosen just about any Manoa bar here. This one bears the unmistakable spiritous house character of the maker, with plenty to make it unique. Rum, banana, red strawberry, and pale caramel in the nose deepen to berry balsamic on the palate, with grassy rum and moderate acidity. https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/2022-favorite-beer monthly 0.5 2023-01-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/99ff715c-1624-4889-8aef-6a48e8ea18a8/Burial+Lessons+in+Solitude+Portrait+II+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2022 - Burial Lessons in Solitude: Portrait II Burial Lessons in Solitude: Portrait II is a 15% ABV Imperial Stout brewed with blood orange zest, Sey Coffee, toasted oats, vanilla bean, and French Broad cocoa nibs. Initial notes of peppery coffee and dark, dry chocolate part to reveal orange cream ganache and silky vanilla caramel and milk chocolate. It finishes with a spritz of blood orange zest and a closing roastiness from the Stout base. Magnificent. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/2b4bdf50-82d2-4c62-b3fb-cc7de1b43f2e/Masthead+Zurgenbrecher+Doppelbock+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2022 - Masthead Zungenbrecher Zungenbrecher is one of the best Doppelbocks I’ve had in quite some time. It pours a beautiful tea-stained copper color with sticky lacing, Notes of raisin, light caramel, and fresh, dark bread, with some unspiced sticky bun dough, and a faint hint of well-groomed leather. The finish is dry with minimal but noticeable bitterness. Robust but smooth, boozy but graceful, regal but rugged. We drank this while watching the snowstorm at the beginning of the month, and it perfectly fit the moment. It would perfectly fit a lot of moments. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1f25832b-6acd-4fa8-9db3-553249e5e217/Seedstock+Heritage+Pilsner+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2022 - Seedstock Heritage Pilsner I finally got to taste Seedstock Heritage Pilsner, the beer whose creation and lineage I chronicled for Pellicle Mag last year. It has a lovely snappish bitterness with gentle Saaz grassy/floral notes, and a beautiful Pilsner malt honey-on-pale-bread note, with a pleasant shale-like dryness. I could drink a lot of this. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/8ae49ad5-2fff-4acb-9603-18c61f67a69f/Fifth+Street+Brewpub+Tropical+20220210.jpg Blog - Favorite Beers of 2022 - Fifth Street Brewpub Tropical This format of [relatively] low-alcohol Belgian pale ale is a favorite of mine. I love the dryness and bitterness wed to an assertive, phenolic fermentation profile. There's a blend of white pepper and vanilla/clove that together consistently reminds me of viburnum blossoms (I promise I'm not trying to be purple with this - smell some snowball viburnums this spring). Then you add in the tropical hop notes. I've had some other Belgian styles with bold American hops, and they can be really good (I'm partial to Coppertail's Unholy Trippel), but the collision of phenolics with tropical fruit can sometimes lean a bit bilious. In Fifth Street Brewpub’s Tropical, the coconut serves as a buffer and a glue between that fermentation and the brighter hop notes, and it's just a smooth waterslide from the fruit through the coconut to the spice, but all of that in a dry, pleasantly bitter body. I downed that pint in a hurry. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1584a3b3-4215-42b9-8d8c-0a00e078c645/Jolly+Pumpkin+Biere+de+Mars+%284%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2022 - Jolly Pumpkin Biere de Mars Jolly Pumpkin Biere de Mars is a Flanders-style sour red ale brewed with American hops, aged a short time in a foeder, and aged longer in bourbon barrels. The beer is quite oaky, with leather, caramel, and raw oak notes filled in with that classic Juicy Fruit-heavy Jolly Pumpkin house character and the expected acidic dark fruit notes of the style. The perfect beer for the whipping winds of late March. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/bc8f4d80-2bae-4287-bd14-c5b5b84f033b/Branch+%26+Bone+Cosmic+Slop+in+BH+glass+%284%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2022 - Branch & Bone Cosmic Slop Branch & Bone makes some of the best Hazies anywhere, and Cosmic Slop is one of my favorites. This 6.8% ABV Hazy IPA with Galaxy and Citra hops is drenched in creamy, juicy tropical fruit—peach creamsicle, mango, pineapple, papaya—and those flavors cause it to lean sweet initially before an underlying bitterness comes through to balance each sip. Just gorgeous. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/8c21afd1-867b-4690-9b74-5c2626a2627f/Fair+State+Vienna+Lager+20220505+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2022 - Fair State Vienna Lager I hung out at Fair State Co-op my last day I was in Minneapolis for the Craft Brewers Conference, and their Vienna Lager was glorious. Snappy bitterness with toasty, lightly nutty malt. So clean. Endlessly drinkable. The platonic ideal of the style. I’m in love. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/44db7209-30b2-4dc5-923f-b23e6fccdab1/Stormcloud+Lakehouse+Ales+Project+Zappanaut+2020+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2022 - Lakehouse Ales Project Zappanaut Lakehouse Ales Project Zappanaut 2020 from Stormcloud Brewing is a 6.2% ABV foeder-aged Saison dry-hopped with Zappa hops, and it’s a beautiful execution of a familiar concept. Soft, fuzzy floral spice notes and touches of lemon balm and subtle minerality lead the nose and meld with the initial sip, revealing thoughtfully restrained acidity over a base of rising pale bread dough, lemon, and just a touch of mothball funk on the finish. Run a Gueuze through the feathery influence of a 90s shoegaze reverb pedal and you’re getting close. Beautiful. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/2c7bf02f-4c91-48d2-add1-278a351f0d0b/Noble+Beast+Murder+Ballads+%284%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2022 - Noble Beast Murder Ballads Noble Beast Murder Ballads was on my “must find” list for a while, and I finally got to try it last spring. This Baltic Porter has medalled twice at the Great American Beer Festival, and it’s truly excellent. I couldn’t find the seams or edges between the components of this beer. There’s mild chocolate and cola in a dry body with just the right level of balancing bitterness. It’s smooth and gentle despite its strength, and even at 8% ABV it feels endlessly drinkable. If you want to understand what a Baltic Porter should taste like, track this down. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/5c9f346b-5c7f-4d7f-863f-34bd271fff28/Archetype+Knight+of+Delusions+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2022 - Archetype Knight of Delusions Archetype Knight of Delusions is one of the best and most unique chocolate beers I’ve had this year. Brewed with French Broad cacao nibs, Knight of Delusions is a 12.5% ABV Imperial Stout aged in bourbon barrels and on French oak with a mixed culture (not clear on the exact sequence here). The aroma is rich milk chocolate with a hint of acidity, and the flavor is all rich, decadent Imperial Stout with dark milk chocolate which slowly slides into notes of Pinot Noir, black cherry, and blackberry, and then reveals toasted oak and subtle fermentation acidity and a hint of understory. The dry finish offers just a whisper of bourbon. Gorgeous. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/901bae82-58cb-440b-81fb-a83c5734243c/Great+Divide+Old+Ruffian.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2022 - Great Divide 2016 Old Ruffian Great Divide used to be easy to find in the Ohio market, but they retracted their distribution a few years back. I stopped in at their original taproom in Denver when I was in town in October, but they’re no longer available off the shelf where I live. I opened this 2016 bottle of Old Ruffian Barleywine this summer and was thrilled by how well it had aged. The hops were still potent but lacked the sharp edge of some younger American Barleywines, with resinous pine and some sweet orange. Malt oxidation was minimal, and the sip blended caramel, orange, pine, and gentle spice. An elegant reminder of a previous era. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/2d1bab57-14f5-4848-a0b3-808a49537f6d/Wolf%27s+Ridge+Dire+Wolf+202208+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2022 - Wolf’s Ridge Dire Wolf This classic Imperial Stout is beautifully structured, with smooth, creamy, thick chocolate flavors climbing an ascendingly more aggressive roast to luscious green pine bitterness from the hops. Wolf’s Ridge releases a lot of doctored variants of their workhorse Imperial Stout, but the base version remains my favorite. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/092500f9-c813-4532-9a7c-384d57266e2f/Rabid+Crown+of+Horns+20220723+%284%29.jpg Blog - Favorite Beers of 2022 - Rabid Crown of Horns I collaborated on Crown of Horns with my friends at Rabid Brewing for their Feast of the Goat Queen in July. It was brewed with Philippine Malah Na Bulong cacao, a new origin imported by Uncommon Cacao and sourced for this collab through Ethereal Confections. I was particularly drawn to Malah Na Bulong for its strong chocolate foundation, and its earthy, herbal, and spicy notes, feeling they would perfectly complement a beer of this type. We brewed the beer with an English ale yeast, and the combination of the cacao and the subtle esters from the yeast yielded an almost Belgian impression, with notes of pome fruit and banana, a silky, fruity cacao note underneath, a touch of earthy and herbal spice, and a gentle but lingering chocolate note. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/d87609e8-d82b-47b4-9366-36d627e20ef2/Moontown+Skoolhouse+Bock+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2022 - Moontown Skoolhouse Bock On a trip across Indiana this in June we stopped in at Moontown just northwest of Indianapolis. The brewery is in an old high school gymnasium and is one of the coolest taprooms I’ve seen in a while. Skoolhouse Bock is also one of the best Maibocks I’ve had in a long time, and has a couple GABF medals to prove it. It has a gorgeous round pale malt base that could steer sweet but never does. It’s fairly light-bodied with snappy noble hop bitterness and the tiniest touch of Smarties candy. We need more Maibocks. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/0b74342b-7701-4511-a3ed-301822941f3d/Casa+Humilde+Viva+la+Vida+%287%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2022 - Casa Humilde Viva la Frida On a rainy day in June my wife and daughter and I stepped off the Pink Line in Chicago’s Pilsen neighborhood and walked to the National Museum of Mexican Art. It’s a lovely space, and the highlight was a temporary exhibit of Frida Kahlo’s photography collection. A short walk under dripping branches took us back to the L and a couple stops north to Casa Humilde Cerveceria, where we hung out with brothers Jose & Javier Lopez and enjoyed Viva la Frida, a lime and hibiscus lager they brewed in collaboration with the museum for the exhibit. The beer is visually stunning, and backs it up with fresh, bright, spritzy lime and soft cherry notes on the nose, and a crisp, dry palate with bright lime, a bready base, mild acidity, and a cucumber skin-like crispness, with the hibiscus gently filling in any gaps. This beer is so vibrant and full of life, just like its namesake. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/8062a246-8f7d-45c5-81b8-9ca33d302f26/Upland+Prim+%283%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2022 - Upland Prim Upland Prim is a barrel-aged sour brewed with cardamom and plums, and it’s a spectacular exploration of flavor. It balances tart and sweet throughout the sip, with layers of icebox plums and candied plum tinted with gin-like prickles from the cardamom. It’s a very cocktail-like beer, like a brighter but also somehow cooler twist on a Dark & Stormy with the fruit and spice playing off each other. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/be59919d-0f14-4d6f-a4f7-38b8c1ed40ff/PD+10+Primitive+Frosted+in+Moss+20221005.jpg Blog - Favorite Beers of 2022 - Primitive Frosted in Moss I knew Primitive Beer by name and nothing else going into PorchDrinking’s 10th anniversary festival, and left a bit shook by how stunningly good their Belgian-style Lambic styles were. They had one of the best Oude Krieks I’ve tasted in a long time (Room to Grow), but the highlight was Frosted in Moss, a young (6 month) Méthode Traditionelle (straight Lambic) aged on Colorado spruce tips. I filled a page of my pocket tasting journal with descriptors, but finished it out with “Like snow melted through a bed of pine needles, earth, and stone.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/c38f2624-b2c3-43eb-9e99-a5b17caf4221/GABF+Denver+Beer+Digital+Snow+Day+Spruce+Tip+IPA+20221006.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2022 - Denver Beer Digital Snow Day I didn’t try many IPAs at GABF—I never really do when I’m at a beer event. It’s not out of snobbery or because I don’t love a good IPA, it’s just that there are an embarrassment of great IPAs from breweries near me and all over the place, so I’m more interested in seeking out more unique beers and compelling stories when I travel. One exception while I was at the country’s biggest beer festival was Denver Beer Co. Digital Snow Day, a Spruce IPA made with Colorado spruce tips. This beer ended up being one of probably my 5 favorite beers of the entire trip. It tastes like if you candied pine needles and orange peels together. You get a beautiful contrast of sweet impressions with briskly bitter realities here, like a more playful, Day-Glo version of Celebration Ale. Love it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/cd89fa4c-e4fa-46bf-8847-07d03387e8f5/GABF+Left+Hand+St+Vrain+Tripel+20221006+%283%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2022 - Left Hand St. Vrain Tripel After tasting Left Hand St Vrain Tripel the first night of GABF, I texted the other PorchDrinking writers at GABF that I knew it maybe wasn't a sexy pick for our best of the fest guide, but it was damn near perfect and we needed to include it. I only wish it were available here in Ohio. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/4d8aa993-acf8-493d-bf15-d6ae954afe9f/DRBT+Avery+Mephistofoles+20221007+%284%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2022 - Avery 2010 Mephistopholes One of my favorite beers at the Denver Rare Beer Tasting was, on the surface, one of the simplest. This 2010 Avery Mephistopheles is a big (15.6%) Imperial Stout with no barrels or adjuncts involved, and time has treated it well. The hops still offer a punch of piney bitterness, but it’s tempered just enough by the beer’s quiet sweetness and an assertive baker’s chocolate roast. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/6a15d582-99fc-4466-8212-8f66bb5c9b4b/Cerveceria+Colorado+Pozolito+Lindo+20221008+%286%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2022 - Cerveceria Colorado Pozolito Lindo Cerveceria Colorado Pozolito Lindo brewed in collaboration with Mexican brewery Cielito Lindo is a 5.5% ABV Porter inspired by Pozol, a pre-Colombian Mexican beverage made with fermented corn dough and roasted cacao. The beer is brewed with unfermented cacao nibs, cacao husks, and nixtamalized corn, all from Denver’s Cultura Chocolate. The beer offers roasty, nutty coffee notes with a light kiss of sweetness and a subtle roast acidity with gentle earthiness. This was poured at the Great American Beer Festival as well as at Cerveceria Colorado’s Great Mexican Beer Fiesta, always one of the highlights of GABF week for me. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/b81133fc-6226-4c29-a5ca-334fdd749580/Scratch+Sycamore+2022+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2022 - Scratch Sycamore Scratch’s beers are always complex, intriguing, but delicious unassuming explorations. Sycamore is an amber lager brewed with sycamore bark, and while it introduces itself like an oak-aged Vienna Lager, it quickly reveals young leather, birch, and licorice root, with a bit of a drying mouthfeel from the bark and counterpoints of gentle sweetness and bitterness on the finish. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/c2c68e06-f978-4ee9-82b5-a7e914e245f5/Pretentious+Indigenous+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2022 - Pretentious Indigenous Pretentious Barrel House Indigenous is a sour ale brewed with corn grown and malted at Rustic Brew Farm and aged in oak for 11 months, and the result is one of my favorite sours I’ve had this year. The effusive aroma reads as yeasty bread dough with a touch of white grape and some stony acidity. The mouth brings some candy-like fruitiness that softens into peach and nondescript berry with a moderate but not aggressive acidity. Light but brisk, complex but not challenging. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/fae62cac-3e53-48a2-8a3b-cca84cc10a43/The+Bruery+Shegoat+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2022 - The Bruery Shegöat Weizenbock is such a delightful style, in all its spicy, boozy banana bread glory. Unfortunately, next to nobody brews one. Fortunately The Bruery brews a fine one and sent a bottle my way (with no obligation for coverage or positive review). Shegöat pours with a thick, moussy head with a puff of cocoa on the nose that quickly gives way to plum and overripe banana, dark banana bread, and a splash of grassy rum. The palate lends color to those impressions and brings in a touch of acidity on the finish from the wheat and a dry body, despite the indulgent flavors. Spice is minimal. I’m very pleased with this. Now put it in 12 oz cans and distribute it! https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/2022-favorite-pairings monthly 0.5 2023-01-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/b7778f76-08ab-4271-8133-9826012acfed/Masthead+Zungenbrecher+Doppelbock+with+Qantu+Maple+%26+Maras+Sea+Salt+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate Pairings of 2022 - Mathead Zungenbrecher Doppelbock with Qantu Maple & Maras Fleur de Sel Masthead makes some of the best classic lagers around, and their Zurgenbrecher is among the best Doppelbocks I’ve had in a long time. Notes of raisin and light caramel with unspiced sticky bun dough and dark bread dough, but in a dry body with minimal but noticeable bitterness. While watching the snow fall a couple weeks back, I paired this beer Qantu’s elegant Maple & Maras Fleur de Sel bar. The resulting pairing was like maple drizzled figs on rich, lightly salted dark bread crust. A beautiful pairing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/6bd3d739-a901-4cd5-862e-dd06768abea3/New+Belgium+Beltane+with+Amedei+Toscano+Blond+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate Pairings of 2022 - New Belgium Beltane with Amedei Toscano Blond New Belgium’s Beltane foeder-aged lager brewed with heather flowers pairs beautifully with Amedei Toscano Blond, a 63% dark chocolate made with peaches and apricots. Together, the gentle florals of the heather with the crisp acidity of the base beer combines with the stone fruits to create more of a winesap apple orchard motif, and I’m instantly in mind more of autumn than spring, walking through a sunny apple orchard. A beautiful pairing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/64c993c0-aef9-45fb-99fc-f28f4e4355cc/Branch+%26+Bone+Campfire+Candle+with+Cleveland+Chocolate+Guatemala+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate Pairings of 2022 - Branch & Bone Campfire Candle with Nostalgia Guatemala Chivite 70% Branch & Bone use Violet Sky cacao in all of their chocolate beers, and I had the chance to talk with Brett from Branch & Bone and Hans from Violet Sky back in Episode 10. I recently sat down with Campfire Candle, an Imperial Stout brewed with graham cracker, vanilla, and Guatemalan & Ugandan cacao from Violet Sky, to find a good chocolate pairing. I don’t often pair with high concept beers like this, because it can throw off the existing balance of the adjunct ingredients in the beer (adjuncts are basically inclusions in chocolate), but I had a feeling a bar from one of these origins would work well, and I was right. This paired nicely with a couple different Guatemalan bars, most especially with Nostalgia’s Guatemala Chivite 70% bar. Notes of smoky caramel with gentle acidity curving around a core of dark milk chocolate, but never tipping into being too sweet. A gorgeous pairing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/57a7bb29-2be3-4f60-9b26-0ed7dd4a5488/Chimay+Premiere+with+Moka+Origins+Ghana+Dark+Milk+58%25+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate Pairings of 2022 - Chimay Première with Moka Origins Dark Milk Ghana 58% Chimay Première is one of the best and most widely-available Dubbels in the world, with notes of plum and cherry and brown sugar in a dry body with mild bitterness. A pairing with Moka Origins 58% Dark Milk bar with Ghana cacao yields silky caramel with gentle fruit notes of sweet grape and dried dates in milk with a touch of nutmeg. And don't get me started on these velvety textures together...Dubbel and Dark Milk is always a luxurious pairing. Check out my complete guide to pairing Chimay’s beers with chocolate here. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/2093c215-648d-4e0c-b7f1-cd897620a370/12+Bones+Drowned+in+Sound+with+Cleveland+Golden+Coconut+%284%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate Pairings of 2022 - 12 Bones Drowned in Sound with Cleveland Golden Coconut IPA isn’t a style of beer most people think of for chocolate pairings, and for good reason—the bitterness of many beers in this style is a dealbreaker in almost all cases. However, the juicier, lower-bitterness family of Hazy IPAs can work beautifully with the right chocolate. The fluffier texture, slightly higher sweetness (at least in perception, if not in actual sugar level), more tropical fruit character, lower hop bitterness, and subtle fermentation character can find a beautiful match with many white inclusion bars or low-percentage milk bars. 12 Bones Brewing Drowned in Sound is a fruit basket of tropical and citrus fruits with a touch of pine and dankness (beer code for the smell of mary jane - a plant closely related to hops), with a relatively light body for its 9% strength and low bitterness that increases the sweet perception of those fruit flavors. I paired it with Cleveland Chocolate Golden Coconut, a Peru white chocolate with turmeric, cardamom, and candied ginger. The pairing was, appropriately, golden, with the spices in the bar seasoning the fruit and the bar’s creaminess amplifying the body of the beer. Together, these felt like a spiced, fruity daiquiri that’s just the right amount of sweet. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/af6c087b-d08b-4cf0-a530-1e5c09643b48/Burial+Hellstar+with+Map+Squirrel+Stash+%283%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate Pairings of 2022 - Burial Hellstar with Map Squirrel Stash Burial Hellstar is a dark lager (elements of Schwarzbier and Munich Dunkel) with notes of light cola-like caramel, black coffee, and a touch of toasty bread with a light body and low but adequate bitterness. I paired this recently with Map’s Squirrel Stash, a white chocolate bar made with hazelnuts and seasalt, and the union was simple but delightful, like hazelnut brittle with touches of coffee. The flavors and textures were light without being thin. An excellent early spring pairing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/d1fff94b-c135-421a-9e46-2444931d1bf1/Noble+Beast+Shucks+with+Seilgo+Smoked+Black+Pepper+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate Pairings of 2022 - Noble Beast Shucks! Oyster Stout with Seligo Smoked Black Pepper 70% Noble Beast Shucks is an Oyster Stout made with smoked Maine oysters and sea salt. The aroma offers light, dry roast, a hint of sea air, and the perception of creaminess to come. The flavor has lovely gentle dry roast with the slightest hint of that sea air funk. A touch of dry smoke emerges, along with a twang of salt. To pick a chocolate pairing for this beer, I looked to culinary flavors and went with Seligo’s 70% Smoked Black Pepper chocolate cubes. These unrefined chocolate cubes are gritty with a green, pungent, freshly ground peppercorn character highlighted by herbal smoke. Together, the pairing was redolent of seaside greenery, salty air, a driftwood campfire. I had the image of a quayside hut with old wood, a fire, moss, and sea air. The beer’s roast and the underlying chocolate were vehicles for these living aromas and images. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/fa908fdf-3122-47c5-9a6c-53fe85dd4094/Spencer+Monks%27+Reserve+Quadrupel+with+Manoa+O%27ahu+Island+Waimanalo+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate Pairings of 2022 - Spencer Monks’ Reserve Ale with Manoa O’ahu Usland Waimanalo 70% Belgian Quads often have the flexibility and range of flavors to find good companions with single origin dark chocolates in the 70-80% cacao range, particularly fruitier origins, which can typically be a tricky chocolate type for many beer styles. Spencer Monks’ Reserve Quad (r.i.p.) for example worked beautifully with Manoa O’ahu Island Waimanalo, yielding flavors of cinnamon brownies with sweet concord grape and blackberry jam, with a slightly bitter finish. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/2afa1db7-d1cf-4caf-a659-cb982ae062a8/Branch+%26+Bone+L%27Internationale+with+Somerville+Chuncho+with+Chaga+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate Pairings of 2022 - Branch & Bone L’Internationale with Somerville Chuncho 75% with Chaga Branch & Bone L’Internationale filled the room with notes of musty attic funk and bready dark malt with flits of apricot and cherry as soon as I opened the bottle. It poured a deep red orange with quite good clarity, and the acidity was more restrained than I expected. Dry as could be, there was a gentle hay/grass bitterness. I had a hunch the funkiness of the beer would pull forward the earthiness of a mushroom bar, and that definitely proved the case with Somerville Chuncho with Chaga. Sweet peach melding into chanterelle mushroom with some underlying earthiness made this a gorgeous combination, and a great example of a pairing bringing forward new flavors that weren’t present otherwise. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/cdeed3c4-2f83-40a7-b08c-f0f9e3f42833/Wolf%27s+Ridge+Dire+Wolf+with+Miette+et+Chocolat+Alpine+60%25+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate Pairings of 2022 - Wolf’s Ridge Dire Wolf Imperial Stout with Miette et Chocolat Alpine Chocolate 60% This classic Imperial Stout is beautifully structured, with smooth, creamy, thick chocolate roast climbing an ascendingly more aggressive roast to luscious green pine bitterness from the hops. Wolf’s Ridge releases a lot of doctored variants of their workhorse Imperial Stout, but the base version remains my favorite. Miette et Chocolat Alpine Chocolate 60% is made with conifer needles foraged during Chef Gonzo’s wilderness runs, and I paired it with this beer to pull forward to pineyness of the hops. Together this pairing was chocolate-covered pine needles. So great. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/4b481149-f35b-4e77-aab4-4f8b5a43e9ec/St.+Bernardus+Wit+with+Jcoco+Cayenne+Veracruz+White+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate Pairings of 2022 - St. Bernardus Wit with Jcoco Cayenne Veracruz Orange Witbier with a spiced white chocolate was one of the first pairings that ever made me realize what beer and chocolate could do together. St. Bernardus Wit with Jcoco Cayenne Veracruz Orange overs a wave of candied orange with a creamy base washed over with gentle heat. Simple and delightful. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/d18b9d79-ebeb-486b-998c-d75eca6f7c5a/Pretentious+Indigenous+with+Cleveland+Chocolate+Avocado+White.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate Pairings of 2022 - Pretentious Indigenous with Cleveland Chocolate Avocado White Chocolate Pretentious Indigenous is made with Ohio-grown and malted corn and has a yeasty bread dough aroma with subtle fruit and a stony acidity. Paired with Cleveland’s unique Avocado White Chocolate you get bright, tart lime with dry graininess behind. Dry, bright, and sunny. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/fb87ebff-a281-468b-8cbe-72c59d396bcf/Branch+%26+Bone+Cinnamon+%26+Coconut+Feral+Dawn+with+Baiani+Caipirinha+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate Pairings of 2022 - Branch & Bone Cinnamon & Coconut Feral Dawn with Baianí Caipirinha During a pairing I led at Branch & Bone in November we paired four chocolates with four rare, barrel-aged beers from the Branch & Bone cellar. The most popular was a one-off treatment of their Feral Dawn anniversary bourbon barrel-aged Imperial Stout made with cinnamon and coconut. Leaning into those tropical flavors, I paired it with Baianí’s Caipirinha made with cachaça and lime zest. This was a wave of indulgent, sweet tropical flavors melting together. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/f4c2b106-27f2-4821-8cd1-c7bdca6b81a2/Lady+Justice+pairing+20221006.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate Pairings of 2022 - Lady Justice Have You Heard the Buzz Bock with Omnom Black n’ Burnt Barley I got to lead a beer and chocolate pairing with my friends at Lady Justice Brewing in Denver in October, and the most popular pairing was between their Have You Hear the Buzz Bock made peach vanilla black tea with barrel-aged honey malt and Omnom’s Black n’ Burnt Barley bar. The almost-burnt caramel notes of the bar pulled forward the peach and vanilla of the beer and snapped them into focus. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/2f262075-c069-4515-8700-8089268f97f7/Upland+Prim+with+Somerville+Hickory+Smoked+Dominican+Republic+65%25+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate Pairings of 2022 - Upland Prim with Somerville Hickory Smoked Chocolate 65% Upland Prim is a barrel-aged sour brewed with cardamom and plums, and it’s a spectacular exploration of flavor. Paired with Somerville’s Hickory Smoked 65% dark chocolate made with Dominican Oko Caribe cacao, the character of a smoked plum cocktail emerged, with a balance of sweet, tart, and savory base notes with gentle spice. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/685b1b35-593c-48e5-9c62-b3d7f435ddde/Lindeman%27s+Oude+Gueuze+Cuvee+Rene+with+RItual+The+Apres+Chocolate+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate Pairings of 2022 - Lindeman’s Oude Geuze Cuvée René with Ritua The Après Bar Lindeman’s Oude Gueuze Cuvée Rene is the product of spontaneous fermentation, years of aging, and careful blending, and the finished beer is assertively sour and quite funky—orchard fruit shares space with earthy and herbal funk and even a whiff of diesel. Gueuzes are the bold cheeses of the beer world—the flavors don’t always sound appealing on paper, but in context can be exciting and delightful. On the other side, Ritual’s Après bar is a dark chocolate infused with dried raspberries and made with cacao nibs soaked in champagne. It’s classy but flirty, luxurious but bright. It’s the opposite of challenging. Together, these unlikely dance partners find unexpected grace. The acidity of the beer brings the raspberry into blooming life, while the chocolate itself absorbs and tames the beer’s funk, allowing its underlying fruit notes to tease out the timid champagne in the bar. What’s left is a surprisingly simple and refined combination with the bolder beer snapping the bar’s concept into focus: clear notes of sparkling white wine bolstered by gentle orchard fruit and spangled with bright raspberry. A fantastic pairing. https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/midwest-christmas-beers monthly 0.5 2024-03-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/3d8534ec-2925-4eb8-8960-2a357fce3fac/GLBC+20221019+Christmas+Ale+%283%29.JPG Blog -

Favorite Chocolates of 2021 - Qantu Maple & Maras fleur de sel At Qantu Chocolate in the French Canadian city of Montreal, Quebec, husband and wife Maxime Simard and Elfi Maldonado tie together the beautiful story of their relationship in their bar made with local maple sugar, maras fleur de sel, and Peruvian Chuncho cacao. The bar is such a lovely and thoughtful balance between the cacao and maple. The maple isn’t bold and aggressive, but rather a subtle but insistent accent to the nutty, almost fudgy cacao with notes of cinnamon and a beautiful smooth texture. You can hear Maxime and Elfi talk about this bar in Episode 20. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/a094f885-81b8-40ce-8ad1-e3e814378d4a/Crow+%26+Moss+Vanilla+Smoke+Chocolate+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2021 - Crow & Moss Vanilla Smoke 69% The Vanilla Smoke 69% dark chocolate bar from Crow & Moss in Petoskey, Michigan was one of the most evocative I tasted this year. The cacao for the bar is infused with hickory smoke for flavors that are reminiscent of barbecued meats, but with fruity and dessert-like flavors from the cacao and vanilla. There’s so much happening between the smoke, salt, vanilla, and fruity cacao, and it feels like those flavors should be at odds, but they blur so seamlessly it’s hard to tell where one stops and another begins. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/cef701c9-3f75-4929-a548-8abea062aa9b/Solkiki+Yirgacheff+Coffee+Redskin+Peanut+White+Chocolate+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2021 - Solkiki Yirgacheffe Coffee Redskin Peanut White Chocolate Solkiki’s Yirgacheffe Coffee Redskin Peanut White Chocolate is a fascinating bar with an overriding impression of lightly salted peanut butter fudge (think the filling in a buckeye) with touches of peanut brittle and an undercurrent of nutty, earthy coffee. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/145a3922-1e38-4b3b-90c1-d8644f5cf6f1/Onyx+Terroir+Colombia+%286%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2021 - Terroir by Onyx Colombia The folks at Onyx Coffee Labs have launched a line of chocolate bars called Terroir by Onyx that use coffee and cacao from the same regions. Their Colombia bar offers a beautiful interplay between the more acidic fruity and floral notes and the deeper nutty and woody tones with caramel and bourbon barrel. There’s an upfront nuttiness from the coffee, but after that the balance between the higher notes of wildflowers and creamy sweet tropical fruits and the bar’s deeper, warmer comforts is seamless and beguiling. What a beautiful alchemy of these two crops. You can hear more about the process and spirit behind the Terroir series in episode 13. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/962a6dbd-1ad5-473e-b636-9af35ddf9354/Videri+Dark+Milk+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2021 - Videri Dark Milk Chocolate 55% Videri Chocolate Dark Milk out of Raleigh, North Carolina, is smooth and luxurious, with deep caramel cream and a ridge of acidity rippling beneath the silky & creamy mouthfeel. You can hear from Videri founder Sam Ratto in Episode 31. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/6a01477f-7529-42b8-adeb-f878d5bc69d8/Nostalgia+Madagascar+Sambirano+Valley+70%25+portrait.png Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2021 - Nostalgia Chocolate Madagascar Sambirano Valley 70% Nostalgia’s Madagascar Sambirano Valley 70% bar is a great example of how well Tyler understands his beans and how to let them express themselves, with the awareness that sometimes discretion is the better part of valor. Madagascar is a bold origin, but this bar shows enough restraint to allow its flavors to be graceful rather than brash. The acidity of the origin is there in citrus and berry, but it’s gentle, layered over a chocolate foundation of cashew and dry roast, with sunny, radiant warmth. You can hear from Tyler Cagwin at Nostalgia Chocolate in Episode 30. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/49761313-bc71-4d71-972d-bcf11788f100/Manoa+Waiahole+Oahu+Island+%283%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2021 - Manoa O’ahu Island Mililani 70% Manoa O’ahu Island Mililani 70% from Hawaii represents what this tropical archipelago tastes like in my mind. It’s floral, fudgy, fruity, with notes of coconut, lily, berry, banana, and papaya, sweet but not too sweet, an island vacation in bar form. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/665a9b85-7db4-4f20-af2a-93c2e59a3900/Askanya+chocolates+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2021 - Askanya Wanga Neges 50% Milk Chocolate Askanya Wanga Neges is a 50% milk chocolate bar from Haiti made with rapadou, an unrefined sugar. This bar has been a continual rediscovery for me throughout the year, one I’ve come back to and continually been caught by just how good it tastes. It carries a subtle grassy sweetness like agave syrup with a touch of hay, a creamy texture, and a comforting fudgsicle-like body. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/f43283cc-4a92-44e4-80f7-556ca442cff1/Mashpi+Cacao+Pulp+65%25+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2021 - Mashpi Organic Chocolate with Cacao Pulp 65% Despite much of my life revolving around cacao, I rarely get to taste any part of the fruit except what’s made from the beans. Getting to taste Mashpi’s 65% dark bar with cacao pulp filling was an awesome chance to taste the different aspects of this plant together in one bite. The juicy pulp with its flavors of passionfruit, lychee, and gooseberry popped against the earthier Ecuadorian chocolate around it. The chocolate itself has an earthy/fruity balance, sort of like the underlying flavor of an earthy variety of hot pepper stripped of all its heat. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/66883e9e-960a-46ad-984b-9b86346a7145/Map+Guava+with+Coconut+%26+Lime+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2021 - Map White Chocolate with Guava, Toasted Coconut, & Black Lime Map Chocolate’s white chocolate with guava, toasted coconut, and black lime offered an intriguing tropical puzzle my senses enjoyed solving, while offering soothing foundational familiarities to undergird them. I have probably tasted this bar—and enjoyed more imagined tropical getaways with it—more than any other this year. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/6b862fdd-43af-45bf-8b95-a1f0923f6374/Miette+et+Chocolat+Passionfruit+Salted+Caramel+phone.jpg Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2021 - Miette et Chocolat Passionfruit Salted Caramel bonbon in Denver, we stopped in at Miette et Chocolat run by Chef Gonzo from the Netflix show The Bake Squad. Gonzo creates gorgeous bars and confections, and was kind enough to show us behind the scenes of his operation. His Passionfruit Salted Caramel bonbon was simply one of the best things I tasted all year, period. Such an incredibly bright burst of fresh passionfruit and lemon that melt into the caramel, the salt snapping it all into focus. My wife and I each took a bite and just looked at each other, speechless. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/6a4d8147-99f6-49b7-9782-c6c564e16d6c/Xoconat+Up+In+Smoke+%286%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2021 - Xoconat Up in Smoke The cacao for Up in Smoke is smoked over a Thai aromatic candle used in many Thai desserts, and also includes pandan and coconut. I had never tasted anything made with a Thai aromatic candle, and if I hadn’t known, I’m not sure I would have identified the flavor as smoky at all. What came to mind almost instantly for me was the smell of an old bookshop, the kind I can get lost in for hours on a rainy Saturday afternoon. Bibliosmia is the smell pages of old books take on as they age, and with my eyes closed as I tasted this bar, it was like I was in a shop full of them, the shelves overcrowded and thin sunlight streaming in through the windows, warming the wood surfaces and the over-stuffed and worn down leather chair I would retreat to with my finds after browsing. That aromatic tableau involves the books, the wood, the leather, the dust of ages in the air, and the bar’s toasted coconut, pandan, and whisper of salt breathe warm vitality into the scene. You can hear more from Nat about this bar back in Episode 05. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/46b5a559-483b-4a70-89bc-05847f2d5d63/Not+Yr+Sweetie+Fuck+Trump+portrait.jpg Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2021 - Not Yr Sweetie vol. 3: He’s Really Gone In January I got to taste my first bar from Not Yr Sweetie, and appropriately, it was their Fuck Trump vol. 3: He’s Really Gone, a 70% Tanzania bar. The initial fudgy flavors move aside for notes of blueberry and berries and cream, a smooth roast shielding a regal underlying acidity, with touches of wildflower honey in a perfect melt. Not a bad way to celebrate a new era. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/73f51b53-080e-46f7-8503-8d624d1f380f/Ratza+Hopped+Citrus+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Chocolates of 2021 - Ratza Chocolate Self Love I flew to Chicago in August to sit for my Advanced Cicerone tasting exam. I’d been dealing with health problems all year, and I wasn’t optimistic about my chances of passing, but in the days before the exam I felt a sense of calm acceptance take over. Throughout the summer, I had been using chocolate as a means of meditative self-care. I would sit up straight, close my eyes, put a piece of chocolate on my tongue, and focus on nothing but the physical sensation of tasting it, followed by the joy and delight of having a body that can interact with the world through flavor. One of the bars I found myself returning to for this was Self Love, an 80% bar made with reishi and chaga mushrooms as well as ashwaganda and maca root, which founder Sara Ratza says boost energy levels and our immune system. Both were needed, so I turned to it often. I took it with me to Chicago, and sitting in the room of my Airbnb the morning of the exam, I stared out the window at the soft sunlight and slipped a piece of the bar into my mouth. It’s a quiet bar, with a savory, earthy foundation highlighted by gently sweet stone fruit notes. I told myself that whatever happened on the exam, it was going to be okay, and tasting that chocolate as it slowly melted, I was able to believe it. You can hear from Sara Ratza back in Episode 15. https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/2021-favorite-beers monthly 0.5 2022-01-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/c429ea43-db28-4f5a-a3ca-fd1277cd6baf/Humble+Forager+Sugar+Shack+Diaries+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2021 - Humble Forager Sugar Shack Diaries This 12% ABV imperial stout is brewed with maple syrup from a rural Amish family in Wisconsin, Mostra coffee, Ecuadorian cacao from Chocolate Alchemy, and Mexican vanilla. Pouring thick and dark with a lovely espresso crema foam, the beer brings us a deep woods comfort and complexity. The glass teases aromas of burnt caramel, maple sugar candy, and bourbon maple syrup. The coffee doesn’t really come through till the sip, and combines with the maple to taste like what I imagine a maple macchiato would taste like. The chocolate is a dark undercurrent running beneath it all. Back in Episode 20, Humble Forager founder Austin Jevne shared an evocative story about visiting the Amish family’s sugar shack at night, and tasting the beer I feel like I’m having the vicarious memory of being there. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/85d140ac-76fd-44a8-9275-35d82ad8156e/Live+Oak+Old+Treehugger+Barleywine.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2021 - Live Oak Old Treehugger Barleywine Last February we got a major snowstorm, and Melinda and I drove to a local nature preserve late at night to hike through the snow and ghostly, bare trees beneath the moonlight and pinpricks of stars. When we got back home, we opened Old Treehugger from Live Oak Brewing in Austin, Texas. This elegant English Barleywine was full of notes of dark bread, caramel, pine, and orange marmalade, and was perfect for a cozy winter evening. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/ac2b6a22-2c63-43e9-96b9-41ec6f50982d/Fonta+Flora+Extending+Branches+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2021 - Fonta Flora Extending Branches Fonta Flora Brewing in North Carolina brewed a beer with Jester King Brewery in Texas called Extending Branches made with Texas peach leaves and olive and juniper branches and North Carolina birchwood. This beer instantly brought to my mind moss-covered riparian tree roots reaching down from the edge of a forest into a splashing, rocky stream. It’s full of tumbling notes of diesel, dill, sweet peach, sun-dried wood, mineral-rich water, and flavors I only have images for: a blue teal sky, green moss creeping up the timeless musculature of the roots. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/424a07d6-db0e-4582-9d26-3d42f5f7080f/Land-Grant+...And+Beyond+Black+IPA+%283%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2021 - Land Grant …And Beyond… Black IPA with Coffee This Black IPA is brewed with Crimson Cup Kossa Kebena and Antigua Finca el Cadejo coffee and Chinook, Azacca, and Simcoe hops. This is a concept that could have gone off the rails easily, but it’s so deftly executed. The tropical hops and fruity coffee dovetail beautifully, with higher notes of coconut and mild cantaloupe over a sweet, caramel-like coffee foundation that lead into a balanced, piney hop finish. I never would have pitched this as a good idea, but it sure does work. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/7522dd62-4c5c-4f2d-b7ef-1171f4824a52/Bhramari+Quasars+Shine+Through+an+Endless+Night+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2021 - Bhramari Quasars Shine Through an Endless Night Bhramari Brewing in Asheville, NC, released a hefty 13.3% ABV bourbon barrel-aged Imperial Stout last winter called Quasars Shine Through an Endless Night. The beer was brewed with toasted coconut, vanilla, and barrel-aged coffee, and it’s a thick, sweet, indulgent sipper with surprising berry notes of strawberry and crunchberry cereal with underlying sweet coconut and just a whisper of coffee from the depths, dovetailing with the oak notes. If a tropical beach could float untethered in the blackness of outer space, this beer would be served there, as sweet and potent in the darkness as our memories of Earth. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/27816a76-1964-4851-935c-2d86186a2141/Noble+Beast+Graf+Vienna.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2021 - Noble Beast Graf Vienna Here in Ohio, Noble Beast Brewing in Cleveland is consistently putting out fantastic classic lagers. I could have chosen any of them, but their Graf Vienna stood out to me. This Vienna lager is brewed with just a touch of corn to mimic Mexican amber lagers, and it’s endlessly drinkable, with toasty malt notes, a dry, slightly flinty finish, and moderated hop bitterness. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/99cbc95a-92e0-4b1c-8bd2-67423e69e485/Jackie+O%27s+Gold+Denim+Dortmunder+20210903.jpg Blog - Favorite Beers of 2021 - Jackie O’s Gold Denim Dortmunder Export I enjoyed Jackie O’s Gold Denim on the patio of The Barrel House in Dayton, my favorite beer bar. My sister was visiting from North Carolina, and it was the first time we’d seen each other since before the pandemic. I took no notes on this beer, because I was so focused on finally getting to hang out with my sister, but the only thing that distracted me from our laughing conversation was the continual realization of how perfect this golden Dortmunder Export lager was. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/fa9201e3-34a0-4c2c-b3bd-a7158feeae42/Brink+Brinktoberfest+%283%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2021 - Brink Brinktoberfest Autumn sees me drinking a lot of Oktoberfest lagers, and this year my favorite was Brinktoberfest from Cincinnati’s Brink Brewing. Just a whiff of slate-like sulfur, a toasty, bready foundation, a dry minerality, nice bitterness, and just a subtle touch of caramel. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/ed05c726-3735-4b58-b8f6-c804c3611a17/Bierstadt+Slow+Pour+Pils+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2021 - Bierstadt Slow Pour Pils On a trip to Denver in November to cover a few beer stories I got to drink at two of the best lager breweries in the country. At Bierstadt Lagerhaus I had their legendary Slow Pour Pils, a crisp German Pils that goes down so easy you almost don’t realize you’re drinking it except that it’s delicious. The beer is served in a gorgeous art deco stemmed glass, and takes a full 5 minutes to pour properly for a perfect pillowy head. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/d79db195-e797-482f-846b-d5d98d2ae63f/Cohesion+Polotmavy+Snyt+20211113.jpg Blog - Favorite Beers of 2021 - Cohesion Czech lagers Cohesion Brewing brews exclusively Czech lager styles, and they serve them from proper Czech side pour faucets, which allow for the range of traditional Czech pours: Hladinka, which is a conventional pour with moderate foam, Snyt, which is about half beer and half foam, and Mliko, which is mostly foam. This isn’t normal beer foam though. The specialized faucet creates a wet, merengue-like foam that is as flavorful as the beer itself. My wife and I were there one evening after a collaboration brew day at Seedstock Brewing, and we sat at a long table with brewers and downed mug after mug of these frothy, Old World delights. It was an amazing sensory and social experience. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/52050cd4-441d-4b37-8690-71354270e744/Weldwerks+Double+Chocolate+Medianoche+%2818%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2021 - WeldWerks Double Chocolate Medianoche This summer I had the chance to taste Double Chocolate Medianoche, a variant of the coveted Medianoche Imperial Stout from Colorado’s WeldWerks Brewing. This monstrous 14.2% Stout was aged for 24 months in 5-6 year-old MGP high rye bourbon barrels and conditioned on Belizean, Guatemalan, and Mexican cacao nibs from Cultura Chocolate, as well as a subtle addition of Congo vanilla beans. The beer’s aroma leads with cherry and red apple from the bourbon and acidic cacao, before classic chocolate and vanilla take over, with quieter notes of bourbon and oak sitting in the background. The flavor is like a black forest cake with cherries, the rich sweetness balanced by the acidity of the dark malts and cacao, the toasted oak, and the slight bitterness of the roasted malts. The texture is thick and luxurious, and the depth of chocolate character seems like an unending presentation of new chocolate expressions, from the familiar comfort of brownies to the intriguing excitement of a single origin bar. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/87cc3a57-852e-4a2c-9805-8a293d5da151/Dos+Luces+Azteca+Pulque+%284%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2021 - Dos Luces Azteca Pulque When Melinda and I were in Denver in November, we passed a lovely afternoon at Dos Luces, a brewery focused entirely on the ancient Mexican and Peruvian beer styles Pulque and Chicha, respectively. Both styles are brewed with malted corn, with the Pulque being 49% maguey sap and 51% corn, and both are far lighter than typical beers, with tart and bright acidity. Their Pulque Azteca is made with chocolate and subtle cinnamon and New Mexico chilis, and tastes like an acidic spiced cocoa with the comforting chocolate and the bright acidity somehow working beautifully together. The beer is normally brewed with Cultura chocolate, but unfortunately had to be made with Ghirardelli this time because of supply issues. I know, I know. It was still delicious, and I can’t wait to taste the Cultura version at some point. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/3479a788-9dfc-4bcd-a960-ad0077b5d221/Wolf%27s+Ridge+Streetside+Dire+Gorgon+Spumani+Stout+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2021 - Wolf’s Ridge Dire Gorgon This beer was a complete surprise. This Spumani-inspired Imperial Stout from Wolf’s Ridge was brewed in collaboration with Streetside Brewing and was made with pistachios, vanilla, strawberry, and Ugandan cacao from Ethereal Confections. Spiritous strawberry, angel food cake with berries, mildly acidic coffee-like cacao notes, and a sweet-but-not-too-sweet foundation makes this one of the most unexpected delights of the year. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/c163f3b0-1377-4f4b-9ab4-2893e8f22353/Rabid+Baal+20211124.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2021 - Rabid Baal Hazy Pale Ale Speaking of tropical flavors, many hop varieties showcase explosive tropical fruit aromas and flavors, and Rabid Brewing’s Baal hazy pale ale was my favorite beer this year that showed off those flavors. This hazy delight was smooth and bright with fresh mango flesh and citrus pith flavors and a dry and moderately bitter finish. Getting to drink this is the Rabid taproom with my friends, owners Raiye and Tobias, the night before Thanksgiving was one of my favorite beer experiences this year. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/18324a09-696d-4562-9adc-af945067ed78/Mother+Stewart%27s+Porter+%283%29+portrait.png Blog - Favorite Beers of 2021 - Mother Stewart’s Porter Mother Stewart’s Porter offers comforting flavors of dark milk chocolate, a touch of coffee, and an assertive finishing bitterness. They tweaked this recipe early in 2021, and this new version is excellent. Uncomplicated, but endlessly enjoyable. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/051574f5-4a10-48bd-b202-e5d0587afb5f/Seedstock+beer+Baltic+Porter+%287%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2021 - Seedstock Baltic Porter Speaking of Porters, when I was in Denver I tasted Seedstock’s Baltic Porter, one of the best in the style I’ve had. Lovely, smooth chocolate was accented by notes of tobacco and raisin, and a distant minty pine note lingered in the darker flavors. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/8f3f78e2-ce2b-468a-ac8f-54a26b59e474/BH+Saison+Dupont+20211211+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beers of 2021 - Saison Dupont Maybe the best beer I had this year was one I’ve had countless times before, one I first had well over a decade ago. I said at the beginning these could be beers that were new to me, or that I had a new or unique experience with this year. Saison Dupont from Belgium is widely considered the best saisons in the world. This spritzy farmhouse ale balances moderate hop bitterness and grassy hop notes with lemon, stone fruit, and black pepper fermentation notes in an effervescent and dry body. I’ve had more bottles of it than I could ever count, but in the U.S. and in Belgium, but it’s rare to find it on draft. The Barrel House in Dayton had it on tap early this month, and Melinda and I sat on their patio on a sunny 45 degree day and drank glass after glass of this gorgeous, perfect beer. It’s been a hell of a year, and carefree moments have been few and far between, but sitting on the stools in front of our favorite bar while traffic and trains passed, we laughed more than we have in a while, constantly coming back to how perfect this beer is, and how perfect the moment was, and how much we love getting to see and taste the world together. Here’s hoping we get to do more of that in 2022. https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/btb-2021 monthly 0.5 2022-01-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/0cc7e750-9deb-4825-8974-1fd259f211f5/IPA+with+chocolate++%288%29.JPG Blog - Bean to Barstool 2021 - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/hops-bacteria monthly 0.5 2026-01-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/181edff2-90d0-41e1-94a5-9d107be6424c/Branch+%26+Bone+fresh+hops+20240831+%282%29.JPG Blog - Hops & Bacteria: How Brewers Use the Antibacterial Properties of Hops - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/b6813a1a-b90a-4126-a24e-6d1577c3b5a6/Scratch+Blackberry+Lavendar+20190202+%282%29+landscape.jpg Blog - Hops & Bacteria: How Brewers Use the Antibacterial Properties of Hops - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/rabid-brewing monthly 0.5 2024-03-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1634657820615-RDQ5A7ITB70VVQG2GTEU/Rabid+Brewing+mural.PNG Blog - The Mythology of Rabid Brewing - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/7ba02fe9-0b19-4428-b95f-da4bd46fe448/Rabid+Dwarves+of+Doom+indoor+%285%29.JPG Blog - The Mythology of Rabid Brewing - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/sanna-forslund-chocolate-travel monthly 0.5 2024-03-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1634217283560-JACBAHNXDGNQFAU8OJ8W/Sanna+Forslund.jpg Blog - Sanna Forslund Travels Through Chocolate - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/how-to-host-a-beer-tasting-at-home monthly 0.5 2024-07-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1632336289521-FKP6V0NMH371F9M0M6ZS/Oktoberfest+20170920+%281%29+cropped.jpg Blog - How to Host a Beer Tasting at Home - Make it stand out Photo by author https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/3fd3a1c8-8a9a-4c8c-bae7-fda903834a00/Pairing+book+with+beer+%26+chocolate+%285%29.JPG Blog - How to Host a Beer Tasting at Home - Make it stand out Order my book Pairing Beer & Chocolate!

Rather than the savory flavor some smoked beers take on, this is like the entire life of a wood fire was distilled into a glass. Ash, coal, dry smoke in cold air, warm wood, the comforting smell of the fire on your favorite flannel shirt...I felt like I was back inside the såinnhus on that cold winter day. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1624313690729-ZP4KBRELZHWZZDR7D7OJ/Lock+27+Stjordalsol+%285%29.JPG Blog - 3 Smoked Beers & the Only Nordic Malthouse in North America - Lock 27 Stjørdalsøl Stjørdalsøl is a Norwegian farmhouse ale brewed by Lock 27 Brewing in Dayton, Ohio, using Caleb’s Stjørdal malt. Rather than the beechwood used in the beer from Fonta Flora, this malt was smoked over alderwood, and the differences showcase how unique each woodsmoke can be. Where the Fonta Flora beer had an intense but clean fireside smoke quality, the Lock 27 beer was funkier, with a sweeter impression to the smoke up front along with some sharp, almost medicinal phenolics. This eventually softened into fruity and lightly meaty flavors that dry out to an ashy, smokey char. It’s...a lot, but I loved it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1624313893545-QC2B9RF0WRZSBAPYCC91/Fifth+Street+Gratzer+202007.jpg Blog - 3 Smoked Beers & the Only Nordic Malthouse in North America - Fifth Street Brewpub Grätzer Also from Dayton, Fifth Street Brewpub tackled the low-strength Polish Grätzer style, a 3.5% wheat ale brewed with oak-smoked malt from the Sugar Creek såinnhus. This beer packs a punch of smokey, campfire flavor in a relatively light body, balancing intensity with an easy-drinking strength. https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/what-is-malt monthly 0.5 2024-03-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1623956459990-R8O1CEM3AJIVPUTNQLS2/Sugar+Creek+Malt+20200114+%28066%29.JPG Blog - What Is Malt? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/french-broad-burial-bonbons monthly 0.5 2024-03-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1623876227826-XCPPDTCVH0C39DP6UG70/French+Broad+IPA+bon+bon+2021+%2821%29+delete.JPG Blog - French Broad, Burial, & a Beautiful Beer & Chocolate Friendship - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/loon-chocolate monthly 0.5 2024-03-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1623157901447-K2RUKJMR2P6N257FNDSB/Loon+Semuliki+Forest+Uganda+72%25+%283%29.JPG Blog - Loon Chocolate Founder Has a Background in Craft Beer - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/chocolate-beers-mothers-day monthly 0.5 2024-03-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1620244456454-26DSSBNQQ3L715SDYFUU/Casa+Humilde+Tempestad+Imperial+Stout+%285%29.JPG Blog - 5 Chocolate Beers for Mother’s Day! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1620244616608-XPTEEKVQYD8LFHTKF6UA/New+Belgium+Fernandito+%284%29.JPG Blog - 5 Chocolate Beers for Mother’s Day! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1620244776498-EUR103Z4L009M51E2LNL/Brazos+Valley+Slippin%27+Into+Darkness+%286%29.JPG Blog - 5 Chocolate Beers for Mother’s Day! https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/xoco-corina-3-bean-stout monthly 0.5 2024-03-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1617648220940-4K5X8N5JXS7HAWOG3C9J/Xoco+by+Corina+3+Bean+Stout+%286%29.JPG Blog - 3 beans and a chocolate bar https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1617648071158-3XEEWLK00NVEVLGFNY5A/Xoco+by+Corina+3+Bean+Stout+bar+blue+%282%29.JPG Blog - 3 beans and a chocolate bar https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/ale-vs-lager monthly 0.5 2024-03-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1618410069509-EPCENHM850G0WPLQYIV4/North+Coast+Scrimshaw+20180208+cropped.jpg Blog - What’s the Difference Between Ales and Lagers? https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/sara-ratza-loves-plants monthly 0.5 2024-03-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1613080012346-JD4X8YSOEKCKYT44U214/Sara+Ratza.jpg Blog - Sara Ratza Loves Plants https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1613079913898-3H5OVVTA3OP32SR2AWXC/Ratza+Hopped+Citrus+%281%29.JPG Blog - Sara Ratza Loves Plants https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/favorite-chocolate-beer-2020 monthly 0.5 2022-01-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1610564405626-2HVMEGXX68T41TKLSQPZ/Jester+King+Das+Wunderkind+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 Jester King Das Wunderkind is only 4.5% alcohol, proving strength and complexity don’t directly correlate. Spritely notes of bread dough, peach, white pepper, minerality, lemon, and grapefruit frit about on a lightly acidic and gently funky foundation. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1610564550017-AV2HGVUBLCM060I3ME7W/Warped+Wing+anniversary+20200118+2017+Barn+Gang+%281%29.jpg Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 Warped Wing Barn Gang is a dry, moderately bitter saison, but this particular 3-year-old variant was aged in chardonnay barrels, and the wine relaxed the beer’s farmhand shoulders, brought it into the house, and taught it to dance. Dried pineapple, gentle wine-like acidity, Juicy Fruit gum, and the subtlest remnants of the barn - hay, earth - peek in around the edges. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1610564675232-78MBGX1NO2KN9L5KL2DB/Ritual+Chocolate+Peru+Maranon+%2810%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 While all of Ritual’s bars are amazing, their Peru 75% bar with Nacional cacao from the Maranon Valley stood out above the rest for me. Initial aromas of raison, rum, tobacco, and light florals gave way to a much brighter and more delicate flavor profile that revealed itself it layers like waves gently lapping at the sand. The boldest notes hit first - what others perceived as marshmallow and oolong tea stood out to me as a fresh maduro cigar. After that, gentle and cool floral and berry flavors emerged, like blackberries and orchids growing side by side in the shade. The bar is acidic and slightly astringent, but silky smooth. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1610564744067-POGIOACURF0Y5NAY22EI/Brink+Moozie+Milk+Stout+20200208+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 I’d tasted Brink Moozie Milk Stout before 2020, but I got to sit in their taproom and enjoy a couple pints of it for the first time back in February. Moozie offers beguiling complexity with layers of chocolate and roast, despite remaining quite drinkable at 6.2%. This beer has won Gold at GABF three straight years. By any measure, it’s one of the best milk stouts in the world. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611169902794-7U6QVQV9NFZ3FUP56AY7/Von+Trapp+Vienna+Lager.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 Von Trapp Brewery in Vermont pay homage to their homeland with this perfect representation of Vienna Lager, with notes of toast, light caramel, a dry finish, snappish bitterness, and a subtle shale-like mineral undertone. It’s flawless, showcasing the indulgent but austere paradox of great European lagers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611169979479-75DP8WZIJMQ0PCGY1O14/Rose+Hill+68.9%25+Dark+Single+Estate+Trinidad+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 Rose Hill Estate’s Trinidad 68.9% bar made by Amano Artisan Chocolate in Utah came to me by surprise as an add-on to an order, and I ended up liking it more than the bars I had actually ordered. Initial aromas were grassy and floral, with note of sunny dandelions and nutty undertones, and then building to underripe banana skins, heady floral notes, and even some green cardamom, with moderate acidity and bitterness and an abstract fruitiness I couldn’t quite pin down. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611170076701-DA36VTWMH3AXP4I7ZLWJ/Live+Oak+Gold+German+Pilsner+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 Live Oak Brewing in Austin, Texas, makes some of the best authentic European style ales and lagers in the country, and earlier this spring they sent me some to try out. Gold, their German-style Pilsner, was perfect, and that’s literally the only tasting note I wrote down as the glass disappeared far too quickly. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611170123903-4TRQ83OYR0VYC5RWSRHR/Live+Oak+Primus+%281%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 Live Oak Primus Weizenbock warranted a little more reflection, however. The malty foundation of the beer combined with this fermentation character often leads to flavors of spiced banana bread. Primus is redolent of overripe caramelized banana and honeyed bread crust with clove and allspice, a touch of higher bubblegum as well. Despite these sweet, rich flavors, the beer finishes dry enough to help those aromas hold their shape, with just enough balancing bitterness. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611170205587-MRWNXT292UNLR0KB41VB/Cleveland+Chocolate+Colombia+60%25+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 Cleveland Chocolate’s Colombia 60% Dark bar made with cacao from the Arhuacos region of Colombia is a perfect example. The bar offers warm notes of honey and honeysuckle with just a kiss of lavender, and an underlying nuttiness with a touch of coffee. These flavors lead to a slightly sweeter impression than the percentage would indicate. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611170261404-IXEYML105FGQBL9GQ7EC/Little+Fish+Consent+%282%29.jpg Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 Little Fish Consent was brewed in collaboration with Survivor Outreach Advocacy Program, a southwest Ohio non-profit advocating for and supporting survivors of sexual assault, and was released during during April, which is Sexual Assault Awareness Month. The inspiration for the beer came from the popular Youtube video that uses tea as a way of explaining the basics of Consent. Aside from supporting an incredibly important cause, the beer itself is absolutely gorgeous. Initial aromas are of spiced cherry, brown sugar, and dark bread, and the sip carries that stone fruit forward with dry peach pit and the tart dark red flesh right around it. Around that is a gauze of light floral notes, quickly carried away by the dry and tannic finish, though that dryness is kept hydrated by the tart acidity. There’s a bit of cedar to the tannins, and you don’t taste the tea and rose directly so much as feel them. This was incredible. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611170590866-1MC4U2CRWA1FOI9IEQN5/Seventh+Son+Qahwah.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 Seventh Son brews several coffee beers, and perhaps the most notable is Qahwah, an imperial stout brewed with coffee from Columbus roaster Mission Coffee, as well as cardamom, cloves, cinnamon, and ginger. The beer is inspired by Turkish or Arabic coffee drinks, and is one of the most fascinating coffee beers I’ve tried. The spice profile is robust but not hot or overwhelming, and offers an intriguing twist on the imperial coffee stout model. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611170970453-EX5BRA0CPCH9WG7578V7/Antidote+Hestia+Banana+%26+Cayenne.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 Antidote Chocolate Hestia is a 77% cacao dark bar with banana chips and cayenne pepper, and it balances sweet and fruity elements against earthy and spicy flavors, which is a contrast I love. The chocolate itself starts out dry and woody with a faint spice, almost like unpeeled nutmeg pods, before the cayenne heat begins to creep in through the gaps. The banana is initially present more as a mild sweetness than an actual flavor, though it does make itself more known after a bit. Hot cocoa and brownie from the chocolate hold it all together. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611171114981-OL0QQGE8ICO7RZ52SRO7/Carillon+20201216+porter+%288%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 Carillon Brewing Porter from Dayton, Ohio, bears the rusticity of its creation while maintaining a modern drinkability, with notes of dry coffee and a gentle curve of acidity from the dark roast malt. Sitting under the ancient sycamores in Carillon’s sun-dappled beer garden, it’s endlessly satisfying. Their Spruce Ale makes the colder months easier to get through. Flavors of pine needle, faint smoke, and even distant mint come through this strong dark ale that makes me think of wandering in a snowy stand of pines on a lonely winter night, the closest human miles away. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611171244770-MKO5CKROVJQBR2AYAD9L/Theo+%26+Philo+65%25+Dark+Green+Mango+%26+Sea+Salt+%284%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 Theo & Philo 65% Dark Chocolate with green mango and sea salt was one of my favorite discoveries of the summer. The bar is funky in the best possible way, with briny mango skin & sap, musty earth and moss, subtle sea salt, and just enough sweetness to the chocolate itself to keep the whole thing from veering too far into the esoteric. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611171315594-G4ETFDM90CZTGF0R839H/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 Branch & Bone Modern Business Hymns from Dayton was the the brewery’s first collaboration with Violet Sky Chocolate, and this partnership is sure to produce many more excellent beers. Aromas of pistachio pudding, maraschino cherry, and vanilla hit first, with fudgy and slightly acidic chocolate just beneath, all cradled in the muscular arms of a 11.5% imperial stout with its own layers of chocolate and subtle coffee. It’s thick and luxuriously creamy, but not cloyingly sweet, with the acidity of the cacao providing a roundness to curb the sweet body. Listen to Episode 10 to hear more about this beer and the burgeoning collaboration behind it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611171374257-Z0X5GKX2W59PA2H14OJK/Oxbow+Loretta+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 Oxbow Loretta from Maine is a low alcohol Grisette brewed with spelt. The beer is dry, light, and gracefully athletic, with notes of dry wheat supporting gentle peach and apricot fermentation notes that meet a crisp acidity and firm bitterness, like clear water over rock. Phenolic aromas of clove and black and white pepper combine with the fruit esters to trigger a sense memory I couldn’t immediately place until I was walking to our car one day, caught a whiff of something, backed up, and stuck my head into a cluster of white flowers on one of our bushes - snowball viburnum. That was it, and I’ve picked it up in other Belgian beers as well. Every time we step outside there’s a chance to expand our sensory vocabulary. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611171703792-GDL6LHVIP74Z4YT7UU9G/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 Manoa Chocolate Kohana Rum Bar is a 75% dark bar made with agricole rum from local farm-to-bottle distiller Ko Hana. Ko Hana grows their own single varietal sugar cane to produce their rum, and Manoa then soaks cacao nibs in that agricole rum for this bar. It’s dazzlingly complex but instantly enjoyable, rewarding any amount of attention you want to grant it. If you love complex, funkier rums, you have to try this. A panoply of herbal, grassy, floral, fruity notes come off of this, from coconut flesh to star anise to honey to sweetgrass. This was spectacular. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611171803611-TGEPTNILCE2JKHCQM8MW/Noble+Beast+Union+Pils+%283%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 I had two other pretty much perfect Pilsners this year. Noble Beast Union Pils from Cleveland, Ohio, and Jack’s Abby Post Shift Pilsner from Framingham, Massachusetts. The Noble Beast is brewed in the Czech tradition, with a decoction mash and fuller malt profile, while the Jack’s Abby is brewed with German hops and malt with a drinkable American bent to it. As the name of the latter indicates, Pilsner is the style you’re most likely to find a brewer drinking after their day in the brewhouse, because the style is just endlessly enjoyable and encourages ready conversation. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611171889833-WVDE7DB0WXIEWCA7BWI7/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 Ritual Chocolate appears here again, not for a single origin bar, but for an unusual inclusion. Their 55% cacao Pine Nut bar reflects the Utah landscape that inspired it. Pine nuts are the seeds of Pinyon pine trees native to Utah, and here their earthy nuttiness comes through as gentle hay, pumpkin seeds, and warm sawdust. I’ve only been to Utah once, hiking the narrows of Zion Canyon as a teenager, but this bar instantly brought to mind images of this state’s alien beauty. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611171988476-BY638VV2IOEQFBWIO9F6/Toppling+Goliath+King+Sue.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 Toppling Goliath King Sue out of Iowa is a double IPA hopped with Citra hops, and the two-week-old can I had in balmy June was absolutely gorgeous. The aroma offered underripe pineapple, a wiff of old gasoline, a touch of guava, and some dankness. That sounds a bit...much...I know, but it was harmonious and everything came together and settled out on the palate, with creamy, super sappy pineapple & mango, and a touch of greenness from the hops that brought to mind Iron Goddess tea. Perfectly calibrated bitterness seated nicely within the fuller body. This earned its hype. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611172047797-4B7QVHNAWVR7FZJQ5IOH/Twin+Oast+To+Helles+and+Bock.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 Twin Oast To Helles and Bock is a Maibock from the shores of Lake Erie in northwest Ohio. Maibock is a pale, moderately strong German lager style that balances a regal strength with sunny drinkability when well made. And this one is. Light caramel and bread, like bread crust baked with a sweet wash, with gentle herbal and floral hops sloping away from that malty headland with a pleasantly dry finish despite the early sweet impression. I could drink this on Twin Oast’s rolling rural property all day. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611172105447-3U2MPY9S51U3LC7Z5YBW/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 I’m cheating with this next pick. When I had the chance to taste Firetree’s range of single origin bars during Cacao Magazine’s chocolate tasting course in August, I was bowled over by not only the quality of their chocolate but also the dazzling variance in flavor profiles from cacao from different Pacific islands. Vanuatu Malekula Island 72% was sunny and soft, with strawberry, lemon flower, and cotton candy, while the Papua New Guinea Karkar Island of the same percentage was earthy, with notes of mushroom, tree bark, and moderate acidity. It was eye-opening to taste these side by side. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611172176816-Y2D8RSUNLQZEFUXVKEII/Fonta+Flora+Brouwerbier+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 Fonta Flora Brouwerbier is a 4.5% hoppy saison that instantly made me think of the sublime Belgian beer Taras Boulba from the Brussels brewery Brasserie de la Senne. Brouwerbier offers up a gorgeous interplay of yeast and hops that yields aromas of clove, field grass, and lemongrass, with faint pear, lime, and prickly pear cactus. Bursting with aroma but dry and drinkable with a snappy bitterness. I want a never-ending supply of this beer. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611172230310-ROW6D2SDBT25UD2OFP4N/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 Last winter MadTree Brewing in Cincinnati released Local Blend, a porter that was offered in 4-packs, each can brewed with a different coffee from each of Ohio’s four largest metro areas - Cincinnati, Dayton, Columbus, and Cleveland. Tasting these side by side was a fascinating exploration of the subtle differences different coffees bring to a beer, from the spicy notes of the washed Kenyan Kifahari beans from Dayton’s Boston Stoker Coffee to the acidity and earthiness of the dry process Panama beans from Cincinnati’s Deeper Roots Coffee. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611172307135-HRBHJPDHN85L7Y1SP15B/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 I was fascinated to learn this year about Somerville Chocolate run by Eric Parkes, who produces his bars inside Aeronaut Brewing in Somerville, Massachusetts. I interviewed Eric this fall, and you’ll hear from him on Bean to Barstool soon. One of his most fascinating bars is his Beer Dark Chocolate, a 65% bar made with nibs that steeped in Aeronaut’s Cocoa Sutra Milk Stout while it fermented and were then dried and used in the bar. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611172420402-YCBD0G1VV3YCML7UZNK7/Fifth+Street+Gratzer+202007.jpg Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 In episode 5 we looked at the fascinating world of smoke in both beer and chocolate, and talked with Caleb Michalke at Sugar Creek Malt in Indiana, who produces a wide array of unique smoked malts. I had the chance this year to try three beers brewed with his Sainnhus malts - Fifth Street Brewpub Gratzer and Lock 27 Stjordalsol, both from Dayton, and Fonta Flora Sainnhus from North Carolina. Beyond being brewed in different styles, each was completely unique from the use of different wood smokes for drying the malt. Fonta Flora’s was like the entire life of a wood fire was distilled into a glass. Ash, coal, dry smoke in cold air, warm wood, the comforting smell of the fire on your favorite flannel shirt. The Lock 27 beer was funkier, with a sweeter impression to the smoke up front along with some sharp, almost medicinal phenolics that softened into fruity and lightly meaty flavors that eventually dry out to an ashy, smokey char. The Fifth Street Gratzer, a Polish wheat ale that was only 2.5% alcohol, drank considerably bigger, with clean wood smoke notes from the oak-smoked wheat and none of the meaty notes found in the Lock 27 beer from across town. These beers are a lot, but they’re fascinating, challenging, and intriguing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611172477053-O4RRWQGWZSZ8TKBGS2I4/Madhu+Dark+Masala+Chai.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 Madhu Chocolate Dark Masala Chai is a 60% bar made with the same five spices Harshit’s mom uses in her chai tea every day (we heard from Harshit in Episode 06). This bar is an autumn sunrise, with a complex but interlaced spice profile with vanilla, cardamom, and clove, and underlying notes of black tea and orange peel, and some subtler plum like notes peeking through, possibly from the cacao itself. It’s comforting but energetic, like a bright October morning. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611172621544-ESV2U8YNBW34X2TL4BCS/New+Belgium+Exquisite+Extraction+%284%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 One of the most exciting beers I tried this year was New Belgium Exquisite Extraction. This beer is a single foeder dark sour ale blended with a small amount of stout and infused with Ethiopian Worka Chelbessa and Gera washed coffee beans from Black & White Roasters in Raleigh, North Carolina, and Dominican Republic cacao nibs and husks from Videri Chocolate in Raleigh. The beer announces itself from the glass long before it’s tasted, with notes of creamy milk and acidic dark chocolates revealing concord grape and plum in the deeps, with that funky smell of a burlap cacao sack - hay, burlap, sour vanilla. The sip is both regal, beguiling, bizarre. Cacao husk, acidic coffee, unripe plum, tart grape, straw. The sourness is present but restrained, the body is creamy and smooth, the finish is dry but not thin or astringent. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611172804166-WJHE103T36OC1CU24U2T/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 In Episode 08 I talked with the folks from Ethereal Confections in Woodstock, Illinois, who provide cacao for dozens of breweries around the country. Shortly after that episode I had the chance to taste a few of their bars, and their Haiti 70% bar stood out as an immediate favorite. Notes of honey and dried fig with pops of blueberry-like acidity and whispers of lily and just enough sweetness to amplify the subtle undertone of vanilla. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611172861531-GSDH32KVO87XV906Y9YF/Sonder+Oktoberfest.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 The best Oktoberfest lager I had this year was from Sonder Brewing in Mason, Ohio, a relatively young brewery co-founded by one of the former brewers at Wisconsin’s legendary New Glarus Brewing. Dry bodied with snappish bitterness and a regal malt profile that isn’t as soft as many tend to be, with bread toast, an impression of caramel, and underlying shale-like dryness, this is a fall treat I will seek out for years to come. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611172971251-GBBOZT8AY5PHG48PUKQ2/Lock+27+Wolk+%283%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 Witbier was one of the first beer styles that made me realize I loved Belgian beer many years ago. Lock 27 Brewing in Dayton brought home the bronze medal in the style at the Great American Beer Festival this year for their Volk Witbier, which means I have one of the best witbiers in the country close at hand. Wolk shimmers like antique gold in the light, and offers spicy coriander, quiet wheat, gentle fermentation notes, and a light but fluffy texture. The perfect patio beer. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611173035826-MGPPHRTVAFQS1507XDHQ/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 The best coffee chocolate I had this year was Belvie Good Morning Vietnam. This 70% dark bar is made with cacao and coffee both from the Lam Dong province of Vietnam. My first impression was of sunshine on a citrus grove, but that was quickly eclipsed by coasting waves of smoky, earthy, and nutty coffee beans, and finally the coffee cherry itself emerges, bright and robust, bolstered by the acidity of the cacao. Good morning indeed. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611173432744-ILNCZ0Z9YET15EDQIRBD/Columbus+Brewing+Yakima+Fresh+2020.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 Columbus Brewing Company makes some of the best IPAs in the country, and their Yakima Fresh Wet Hop IPA is absolutely gorgeous. It’s brewed with Mosaic wet hops less than 24 hours after they’re picked, and it’s a beautiful expression of old school citrus and pine hop character with a bit of tropical honeydew melon thrown in. It celebrates hop bitterness but not so much it obscures hop aroma and flavor. It’s perfect. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611173601640-RZONV08ZHN4N4K11WR2M/Casa+Humilde+Campesino+%286%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 Casa Humilde Cerveceria in Chicago brew an array of excellent beers that are often infused with flavors and ingredients from Mexican culinary tradition. Campesino Saison is dry and effervescent, with light lemony hop notes, a subtle underlying minerality, and gentle clove and pepper fermentation notes. It perfectly balances on the rustic but refined tightrope the best beers of this style walk. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611174173360-ROVI3FLFBFJ03SIJWDOT/Original+Beans+Esmereldas+42%25+%283%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 While most of the bars on this list are dark, I am in no way averse to sweeter milk chocolate or even white chocolate. There is a nostalgic comfort to milk chocolate, and one of the best I had this year was Original Beans 42% made with cacao from the Esmereldas Coast of Ecuador. Creamy and silky smooth, this bar caramely and lightly nutty, and just a bit like the best fudgsicle you’ve ever had. Good doesn’t always have to mean complicated or challenging. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611174380356-ZQHEFRPCZY6XYYTEYSVK/Orpheus+Artifice+of+Eternity+%282%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 When I saw a few months ago Orpheus Brewing in Georgia had aged a spontaneously fermented sour ale on cacao fruit pulp and seeds, and I knew I needed to try it. Artifice of Eternity is only 4.5%, but it’s a starburst of flavors, with flavors of bread dough, grape must, lychee, passionfruit, and clove layered over quiet funk and round, bright acidity. I interviewed founder and brewer Jason Pellett in December, and we’ll be hearing from him in an episode in February. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611174728830-EVOQC0KHPJ2WCTTYHYR4/Brazos+Valley+Slippin%27+Into+Darkness+%285%29.JPG Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 Brazos Valley Slippin’ Into Darkness is an imperial stout brewed with cacao nibs and Jet Fuel coffee from Independence Coffee Company. Along with the expected roast and robust coffee aromas, this beer surprised with with a subtle but uncanny aroma of strawberries and cream, likely from some alchemy of the coffee acidity, cacao, and fermentation. On the tongue the beer blooms with spicy coffee tinged with green cardamom and acidic dark chocolate in a full and creamy body and slowly crescendoing bitterness to keep all that richness in check. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea250985a9d5e5bf1c2c8d1/1611174807972-O026JN4A10IZZ8NS3SUY/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Favorite Beer & Chocolate of 2020 Tales Chocolate from Stockholm, Sweden, makes what I consider the most visually beautiful bars in all of chocolate, with each bar offering a topographical map of either the Swedish Archipelago or the city of Stockholm itself. I hope to have the folks from Tales on the show soon to talk about the role of presentation and how it impacts the reception of the bar. Fortunately, their chocolate tastes as good as it looks. Their Tales of Archipelago Sea Breeze 70% bar is made with Dominican Republic cacao and sea salt, and that simple description belies the beauty of this contoured bar. Fudgy and lightly acidic with notes of red raspberry dappled with warm pockets of sea salt, like islands in a dark sea, this made me imagine a languid holiday on the Swedish islands, patches of sunlight on the calm waters. Maybe someday. https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/welcome-to-bean-to-barstool monthly 0.5 2021-01-12 https://www.beantobarstool.com/blog/category/Beer+%26+Chocolate+Collabs monthly 0.5
