If you are looking for a stronger version of the brew, try the Barrel-Aged Mike’s Pastry Cannoli Stout for an extra kick. Brewed with handmade cannoli shells and cocoa nibs from the bakery, the drink brings out chocolate and fried dough nuances. Scenting with sweet aromas of the cannoli pastry, Mike’s Pastry Cannoli Stout is a result of Harpoon Brewery collaborating with Mike’s Pastry.

The tart ale is brewed with lactose, vanilla, mango, tangerine, yellow cardamom, and a touch of rose water. Inspired by lassi, a fruit-based Indian milkshake, Mango Smoovie carries sweet mango and vanilla flavors on the front and a subtle warm and spicy finish on the end. From a chocolate-flavored pint to one that tastes like your favorite birthday cake, these are the best dessert beers for when you want a dessert and a drink at the same time. So what if we told you, you could have both - in one can. Would we all envision palm trees and lapping waves cozy fires and sweet peach pie? I’d love to hear first sip impressions.We all love dessert, and we all love beer. Either one would be great to bring to a gathering and I think it would be fun to hear what sorts of feelings and reactions each been elicits in people. Still, the pale orange beer glowed in my glass with a big, fluffy white head, that gave off a pie with whipped cream vibe.Įach of these beers gave me distinctly different vibes: tropical summer nights from One Night in Bangkok and warm family dinners from Sweet Dreams. I was expecting more of a peaches and cream combination, but the mouthfeel just wasn’t soft enough for that. The lactose seemed to be in the forefront for me with a hint of sourness that made me think more of orange or tangerine. In my opinion, peach is a difficult flavor and I didn’t immediately taste it that much. The first taste didn’t pull me in as much as One Night in Bangkok did, but I did enjoy it the more I drank it.

Full of peach puree and lactose, I was looking forward to sipping this one.

With my Smoothie IPA interest piqued, I cracked open another can from the Smoothie Series: Sweet Dreams Peach Smoothie IPA. Sweet Dreams Peach Smoothe IPA – 6.6%: 6 out of 10 tasted like a smoothie, and one I was actually happy to drink. A dash of lactose added a creamy mouthfeel too. The sharp minty flavor of the basil balanced out the tangy tangerine. I never would have thought of putting Thai basil – or any herb, honestly – into a Smoothie IPA, but this was one of the most refreshing herbal flavors I’d ever tasted. One Night in Bangkok Smoothie IPA – 6.5%: 8 out of 10 I hoped One Night in Bangkok: Tangerine Basil Smoothie IPA would make up for it. In fact, the first thing that comes to mind when I hear the city’s name is that particularly awful Lost episode all about Jack’s ridiculous tattoo.

I admit that I don’t know much (okay, anything) about Bangkok.

With my first taste of two of Midland Brewing Company‘s Smoothie Series beers on a cool fall evening, I found out I was missing summer. Sometimes, just sipping an “off-season” beer can bring back fond memories and a sense of happiness for the upcoming arrival of that season. Hand me a delicious Stout in July and I’m just as happy a camper as if I’d been handed a crispy Pilsner.
I have never been a believer in beer styles being appropriate for only certain times of the year.
