Foolproof Brewing Company

Raincloud

Robust Porter | 6.5% ABV | Unknown IBU
Offered By: PRIMETIME
Club/Brewer Notes:
Raincloud is the perfect stay at home brew. Dark, smooth, mysterious--this rich and flavorful Porter is brewed with chocolate and Crystal malts and a subtle blend of European hops. Raincloud is the ideal accompaniment for a lazy day of movie watching or reading.

Three Taverns Craft Brewery

A Night on Ponce

American-Style India Pale Ale (IPA) | 7.5% ABV | 69 IBU
Offered By: PRIMETIME
Club/Brewer Notes:
A night on Ponce IPA grafts an American ale yeast onto the same malts and hops used in A Night in Brussels IPA. The result is an entirely different beer, which announces its presence with lush notes of citrus fruit before tapering to a clean dry finish.

Member Notes: 
"Unusual smooth for ipa" - davo

Real Ale

Real Heavy

Scotch | 9.3% ABV | 27 IBU
Offered By: BRANDY
Club/Brewer Notes:
A Scotch ale brewed by metal aficionados could be called nothing else but Real Heavy. Our take on the Wee Heavy style is an imposing malt forward brew weighing in at 9.3% ABV. It is brewed with English Crystal malt, English hops, and fermented with our house English ale yeast, resulting in a rich brown color and a toffee accented malt character. Bang your head with a couple of pints of Real Heavy.
