Mustapha M is drinking a Thunder Crunch by Martin House Brewing Company at Hop City Craft Beer & Wine - Birmingham
OK…this one is pretty dang tasty. Milk chocolate and caramel up front. I’m not sure that I detect any rice but I can’t say I miss it. As my friend Philip says, it does resemble a Kit Kat bar in alcoholic liquid form.

Mustapha M is drinking The PastryArchy Chocolate Cherry Cake by DuClaw Brewing Company at Hop City Craft Beer & Wine - Birmingham
Think dark chocolate rather than milk chocolate. The cherry lightens things up just a bit. Another good Pastry/Arcy release.

Mustapha M is drinking a Key Lime Pie by Martin House Brewing Company at Hop City Craft Beer & Wine - Birmingham
It does have a key lime pie vibe to it, perhaps not as sweet as typical. Very refreshing on a hot day I’d expect.

Mustapha M is drinking a Confection Affliction: Maple Coffee Doughnuts by Westbrook Brewing Co. at Hop City Craft Beer & Wine - Birmingham
I got more of an espresso bitterness than anything else. I didn’t get maple at all.Expected more of a balance of bitter and sweet. All that said? It’s a very good coffee stout to me.

Another solid Eclipse release. The brandy barrels are a very different take on barrel aging. It’s faintly sweet but that’s okay.
