Wolf's Ridge Brewing Office Party
What the brewers say
“Imperial milk stout with an overabundance of single-origin cacao and fresh orange zest.”
What our panel thought
“Loads of dark-chocolate notes, complemented by hints of mint, orange zest, and nougat that create the impression of a candy-shop counter. Chocolate is heavy-handed and lands incredibly well in the nose with just the right amount of orange to make this the dessert beer of Grandma’s house. The flavor impressively manages to capture the chocolate-hop flavors while remaining firmly in the beer space. The orange profile in the flavor picks up intensity and is perfectly executed to land with nibs and the overall base beer. Intensifies as it warms.”
What our editors thought
“Intense chocolate orange notes in the nose, gracious yet sleek. The orange and chocolate integrate perfectly in the sip for a beautiful chocolate orange synthesis that’s both sweet yet drinkable by the glass.”
