Peak Organic Oak-Aged Mocha Stout
Brewed By: 
Peak Organic
Self-Defined Style: 
Oak-Aged Imperial Coffee/Chocolate stout
Strength (ABV): 
8.4% ABV
Bitterness (IBU): 
22 IBU

The brewers at Peak Organic mixed beer, chocolate, and coffee for this brew. A rich stout serves as a backbone, with organic black malt and chocolate malt providing a luscious foundation. During the boil, they add artisan chocolate from your friends at Taza. During conditioning, coffee from Coffee by Design is added. Then, this concoction is oak-aged, resulting in soft vanilla notes. The taste is lots of roastiness with definite coffee and chocolate notes. The oak provides some dryness and the hints of vanilla on the finish.

Best With: 
Chocolate desserts, rich desserts like cheesecake

Mexican Chocolate Stout
Strength (ABV):

Mexican imperial stout, using ancho chile powder, cinnamon, and organic vanilla extract. The chocolate comes from dark and chocolate malts, as we feel we can get a more complex chocolate flavor this way.

A dangerously drinkable pitch-black stout with rich chocolate and peat smoke notes, and just a hint of alcohol warmth.

The newest in our conceptual stouts series, this sweet fermentation is made with caramel, milk chocolate, and pecans, embodying all of the excellent qualities of the famous candy it was modeled after. These flavors are complimented by a large malt bill, lending similar characteristics of chocolate and rich sweet roasted grains, leading to a slightly nutty finish

Dogfish Head black and Red

Brewed By: 
Dogfish Head
Self-Defined Style: 
Dry Minted Stout
Strength (ABV): 
10.5% ABV
Color (SRM): 
40º L

Black & Red is a velvety smooth, dry-minted stout with a serious fruit problem! The huge portion of heavily roasted grains brings a dry, chocolatey character that contrasts Black & Red's sweet, fruity, full body.

As you tilt your glass, you'll notice that the black color you are perceiving is actually a very deep red and that the rich creamy foam has a tinge of pink to it. Black & Red starts off roasted and warming with a robust mintiness from 100 pounds of organic mint (from our friends at Washington's Green Grocer) added to the secondary fermentation and finishes out sweet and smooth.

Thrteenth Hour Label
Brewed By: 
Samuel Adams
Self-Defined Style: 
Oak barrel aged Belgian style stout
Strength (ABV): 
10.0% ABV

The 13th hour refers to the mythical “witching hour,” the time when mysterious things are said to happen. It is from this fabled number that Samuel Adams 13th Hour gets its name, referring to its mysterious combination of flavors and playing off its 13 brewing ingredients. 13th Hour is a Belgian Stout that combines the roasted chocolate and coffee flavors of a stout with the spicy character of a Belgian ale aged in oak.

Brewed By: 
Bell's Brewery, Inc.
Self-Defined Style: 
Spiced Stout
Strength (ABV): 
8.0% ABV
Color (SRM): 
42º L

Rather than depending on the floral, herbal aspects of traditional hopping, Harry Magill's Spiced Stout explores an alternative to balancing the signature roasted character of a stout. The malt body is a robust mixture of wheat & various specialty malts, offering hints of molasses & maple syrup. Accented by subtle notes of ginger & nutmeg, the beer offers a unique set of aromas.

Self-Defined Style: 
Oyster Stout
Strength (ABV): 
5.5% ABV
Color (SRM): 
43º L

It all began with a couple of guys drinking beer.

That can surely be said for a lot of things. But it’s only fitting that after a few pints, Pearl Necklace Oyster Stout, Flying Dog Brewery’s latest limited-edition brew, was born.

A dry stout brewed with local oysters, Pearl Necklace was the brainchild of Flying Dog, Rappahannock River Oysters, and Baltimore’s Woodberry Kitchen.
