Lakewood Brewing 2021 Limited Temptress Seduction Six-Pack

Dallas Texas-based Lakewood Brewing is renowned for its popular “Seduction Series,” a bestselling line of Temptress Imperial Milk Stout variations that the brewery continues to expand upon.

And with the holidays coming, Lakewood has released a must-have collection of three takes on the milk stout available starting on October 15^th in the 2021 Limited Temptress Seduction Six-Pack.

French Quarter Temptress is flavored with bourbon barrel-aged coffee from Noble Coyote Coffee Roasters and a touch of chicory. Sin Mint Temptress has mint and a touch of graham cracker, like a liquid thin mink cookie.

Double Stuffed Temptress, being offered for the first time outside the family-owned North Texas brewery, is stuffed not once, but twice with milk’s favorite cookie.

Temptress, Lakewood’s flagship and most popular brew, appeals to beer and non-beer drinkers alike given its unique flavor profile that pairs well with bold flavors and ingredients like those in the Seduction Series.

“We know immediately when we have a winning Seduction brew based on how it sells in our taprooms,” said Wim Bens, founder and president of Lakewood Brewing. “The three flavors we’re releasing this year were all incredibly popular when we offered them as individual limited releases.”

“French Quarter and Sin Mint are cult favorites among the Lakewood Brewing Company fandom, and Double Stuffed has sold out every time we’ve made a Taproom-only batch – it was time to set her free statewide.”
