Beer Inner North Brewing Hoppy Stout

They say you can never have too much of a good thing and if you’re someone seeking roasted notes, coffee and hops all at once, that’s likely how you’ll feel about Inner North Brewing’s Hoppy Stout. Labelled a session stout, the 4.5 percent ABV beer ties together Northern Brewer, Columbus and Cascade hops in a beer destined to scratch a few different itches at once.

That trio of hops provides a mix of orange, a floral bouquet and some dank pine vibes while, on the malt front, it’s all dark chocolate, espresso and roasted barley. It means it's the kind of stout you can spend a cold afternoon enjoying and contemplating, but if it's a little warmer, that will likely not bother you either.
