Wolf's Ridge Brewing Onsetter
What the brewers say
“Classic American stout—dry and roasty with a moderate hop bite.”
What our panel thought
“An unexpected forest of hoppy pine greets the nose; light caramel, toast, baker’s chocolate. Aggressively American bitterness with toffee, dark chocolate, roast, a moderately bready backbone. Piney grapefruit hops. Wrapped up in a creamy mouthfeel, this works.”
What our editors thought
“Familiar orange-citrus nose with a light dusting of forest; light chocolate notes throughout. In the sip, burnt bread crust joins light chocolate bitterness, with a subtle sweet-orange note emerging to soften. Clever and bold.”
