Stormbreaker Brewing releases 7 beers in cans
N. Portland’s Stormbreaker Brewing is back at it with more than half a dozen new beers in cans released over the past few days. The lineup comprises a variety of styles from hazy IPA to west coast, collaborations with Pono Brewing and Groundwork Coffee, as well as dessert beer and classic German bock. As always, Stormbreaker is available from their pubs on N. Mississippi Ave. and in the St. Johns neighborhood, as well as local bottleshops around the metro area.
The Hop Formerly Known as Samba
Style: Hazy IPA
ABV: 6.2%
Description: A hop by any other name still tastes as sweet - Zamba. A full body beer that's on the verge of being obscene, this "little yellow hazy" is so smooth it must be a Limousine. Used throughout boil and dry-hopping, our blend of Zamba, El Dorado, and Simcoe hops offer soft tropical aromas that burst into juicy "pineapple beret" and citrus flavors. With such amazingly unique qualities, Zamba may as well be called the Prince of hops.
Do You Smell What The Maibock is Cooking?
Style: Maibock
ABV: 6.4%
Description: It's Spring! You better recognize it with a classic German Maibock. Gaze upon this crisp and bold gold spectacle! Breathe in the lightly toasted malt aromas! Lesser beers cower rather than challenge its well rounded base - where soft bitterness meets bready sweetness. For THE FINISHER, experience the elbow drop of earthy, floral, spiced notes of German noble hops. So raise an eyebrow, and raise a glass, to the manifestation of Spring itself - Maibock!
When Lockdowns Give You Lemons (Collab with Pono Brewing)
Style: Socal IPA
ABV: 6.3%
Description: This SoCal inspired IPA will transport you to a sunny, sandy beach. Northwestern character classics of dank resin and tangerine combine with the brilliant aromas of lime and stone fruit from our New Zealand Dry Hop additions. If you weren't catching the vibe already, we doubled down with a healthy dose of concentrated lemon peel. With friends like Pono Brewing, and beer like this, lockdown just got a little sweeter!
Eagle Fang IPA
Style: All Valley Style IPA
ABV: 6.3%
Description: We knew we designed a badass beer, now we just needed a badass name to go along with it; something that commands respect! Cobras may be strong, they may be the Kings of The Jungle, and there’s only one animal that can kill a snake…Welcome to Eagle Fang IPA!
Choco Mounds
Style: Dessert Beer With Coconut, and Cacao
ABV: 7.7%
Description: Chocolate and Coconuts for days!
C-Thru IPA
Style: West Coast IPA
ABV: 6.9%
Description: Some classic NW C-hops combine with Simcoe to produce a West Coast IPA with hop aromas and flavors of grapefruit, citrus and pine. Clean, crisp, and bright with a smooth hop bite.
BlondaVision
Style: Double Coffee Blonde
ABV: 5.8%
Description: Brewed in collaboration with Groundwork Coffee, we took their whole bean Ethiopia Heirloom Blend coffee and added it to the fermenter and then put the beer on coffee grounds in the brite tank. This coffee lends Citrus, Dark Fruit, and Milk Chocolate aromas and flavors to the full bodied, bready and malty sweet blonde ale. It's a beer and coffee lovers brew dream come true.
