Another year, another Sierra Nevada collab for their annual Oktoberfest beer. This year they worked with the team at Bitburger for this beer. A solid malt driven beer. As the years go by, […]
Brewery: Belching Beaver in San Diego, California USA Style: Milk Stout ABV: 5.3% Rate Beer: 93/100 Pour: Deep dark chocolate brown with a light beige head.

Crisp dry finish with subtle citrus flavours. A great take on a Brut IPA
Band and brewery collabs are coming thick and fast these days. Only a matter of time before the merchandise juggernaut Metallica cashed in
