GUN HILL GET THAI’D RICE LAGER
On tap at River Of Beer, peculiar jasmine rice-based herbal lager connects cologne-perfumed Thai spicing to Citra-hopped Kaffir lime zesting and minty lemongrass as lightly kilned pilsner malts provide cushy base. Try in lieu of sake.
CENTRAL WATERS OCTOBERFEST
On tap at Ambulance, sweet-breaded caramel malting gains lightly spiced dried fruiting and mild chestnut respite over cardboard-bound buttered biscuit base of moderate-bodied marzen.
THIN MAN PILLS MAFIA
Musky earthen dryness, wet-grained mossy dewiness, lemony herbal hop perfuming and floral-spiced daubs glide above bready cracker base of mineral-watered Bavarian-styled pilsner.
BUD LIGHT ORANGE
Candied orange tartness reminiscent of Tang instant powdered drink gains soda-like citric fizz as raspy tangerine fruiting nearly saves cheaply fruited light lager from oblivion.
EQUILIBRIUM RHO
On tap at Growler & Gill, creamy Mostra coffee-induced Imperial Stout retains lovely milk chocolate luster. Debonair coffee stead reinforced by brown chocolate sugaring before cinnamon-spiced caramel apple sweetness and leathery cedar-charred dried fruiting settle in for awesome dessert confection.
GREAT LAKES BUCKIN’ MULE MOSCOW MULE ALE
On tap at Shepherd & Knucklehead – Haledon, quirky ginger-limed vodka cocktail knockoff truly suffices as summertime refresher. Lime-peeled bittering draws ginger-spiced lemon spot and zesty orange nip into its dry rye bottom. Intriguing eccentricity.
GLENMERE BLACK MEADOW BOG
On tap at Growler & Gill, dry black-malted moderation (reminiscent of an Irish Stout) gathers black chocolate, freeze-dried coffee and dried cocoa tones deepened by dark-roast hop char. Just a tad acrid.
BELL’S CHOCOLATE VANILLA CHERRY STOUT
On tap at Ambulance, sour oaken cherry tartness seeps into mildly creamed lactic vanilla surge and cocoa-dried dark chocolate malting over soily peat earthiness.
BARRIER EARTH BROWN ALE
On tap at Growler & Gill, earthen mocha nuttiness provides bittersweet dark milk chocolate entry with hop-charred chicory coffee, Brazil nut, walnut and cola nut reminders.
CAPTAIN LAWRENCE COOKIE PUSS MILKSHAKE IPA
On tap at Shepherd & Knucklehead – Haledon, enigmatic orange-hazed Carvel vanilla ice cream knockoff given biting citric hop blitz of an IPA. Mild vanilla creaming lightly sweetens lactose-soured orange peel, mango, grapefruit and passionfruit tropicalia, lemon-bruised floral perfuming, strawberry rhubarb tartness and swerving vodka nip above sugared pastry malts.
AVERY DOUBLE DIGIT HAZY IPA
On tap at Ambulance, possibly the lightest bodied and least hazy NEIPA to hit the market. Spritzy Mosaic-hopped lemony grapefruit and mandarin orange juicing picks up dry Simcoe-Amarillo-hopped pine resin above smoothly clean, mountain-watered, oats-flaked spelt graining in soft-tongued moderate setting.
