December is ON and craft brewers are addressing the cooling weather with exciting new offerings you’re gonna want to chase down this weekend.

Look To The Clouds (Baltimore, MD) – Despite dropping temperatures, Baltimore-based DuClaw Brewing Company is offering a blissful taste of the tropics with its latest release.

Brightly golden, complex yet incredibly approachable, DuClaw Cloud Mango is a medium-bodied 7.1% ABV Hopped Sour, with notes of mango and coconut, balanced by hints of vanilla and oak. And its label features QR code linking to a Spotify playlist built by the DuClaw team.

“As we move into cooler seasons, we wanted to offer customers something refreshing,” said DuClaw Director of Brewery Operations Chris Wood. “The rich mango purée does the trick, as it builds tropical tartness while the coconut flakes and ground vanilla beans add a nice, even warmth and lingering sweetness.”
