Winter’s coming and American craft brewers are addressing the changing season with more exciting offerings you’re gonna want have around.
Intense & Harmoniously Balanced (Escondido, CA) If the warmth, indulgence, and festive cheer of the holidays could ever fit in a can, Stone Brewing has returned a holiday favorite that gets that job done and then some.
Combining the decadent inspiration of fine Oaxacan Hot Chocolate and the beloved Tres Leches cake, Stone Xocoveza Tres Leches is an 8.5% ABV Imperial Stout with a robust blend of sweet spices, a ton of dark and milk chocolate, vanilla, and cold brew coffee. And Psaila peppers impart a light hint of heat in the finale. But in spite of its heady complexity, this holiday release is surprisingly bright on the palate, with just a touch of sweetness that all the decadent flavors imply.
“The first time you take a sip of Stone Xocoveza, it will immediately transport you to a winter day, sitting by the fire with hot cocoa and surrounded by good cheer,” says Stone Brewing Sr. Manager of Brewing & Innovation Jeremy Moynier. It’s a beer with several layers of ingredients coming together in different ways that get better and more complex as you keep drinking it.”
