450 NORTH BOMB POP XL HAWAIIAN JUICE SLUSHY BERLINER WEISSE

On tap at Kitchen & Beer Bar, thick orange-nickeled hue glows for mildly creamed Hawaiian Juice cocktail. Concentrated orange juice pulping picks up advertised apricot, guava, papaya, passionfruit and pineapple tropicalia plus salty pink grapefruit and mango influence. But it’s not as rich, chewy or defined as 450 North’s better Slushy’s, leaving detergent-like acidity on graphite-like pencil shavings near the slick Hawaiian juiced finish.

TIMBER ALES BLENDED WITH LUMBER #1 IMPERIAL STOUT

Outstandingly elegant full-bodied stout blended with Elijah Craig bourbon whiskey and conditioned on Ugandan, Mexican and Comoros vanilla beans retains velvety dark chocolate syruping. Bittersweet cocoa nibs influence enriches bourbon vanilla, brandy and burgundy serenity above honeyed Graham Cracker base. Subtle cafe latte, cinnamon coffee, gingerbread coffee, granola and grape nut pleasantries penetrate chocolate-vanilla surface. Highly recommended.
