Smoked Porters in June? Sure, why not!

Daily Pint | June 2, 2009

Some people make a big deal out of only drinking lighter beers like hefs and pilsners when the weather gets warmer.  But we think that’s a bit silly.  Stouts and porters are great to drink any time of year!

Just because Alaskan Smoked Porter is released every winter doesn’t mean we can’t hold on to a keg for a few months and tap it when we’re ready for a change.  Right now is a great time for enjoying a tasty porter.

Also on tap right now is Stone’s Smoked Porter with Vanilla Bean.  Talk about two complete opposite ends of the spectrum.  While the Vanilla Bean Smoked Porter has a milky, rich ice cream taste to it, the Alaskan Smoked Porter really brings the smoke, rauchbier style.

To make this beer, the malts are smoked in small batches in a commercial food smoker using Alaskan alder wood.  This award winning beer is one of the best American-made examples of the classic German rauchbier.
