Welcome to Flavor Town…

Now you can fulfill your Milkshake IPA craving with “Harlem Shake” our Strawberry-Banana Milkshake IPA!

Sometimes a beer is just a beer. Other times it’s pumped full of fresh fruit, milk sugar, and vanilla. Three guesses which kind of beer this is.

Background

The Milkshake beer style, first brewed by Tired Hands in Ardmore, PA, started out as a bit of a joke. But that joke quickly turned into an obsession for eager beer consumers. The Milkshake style is basically an IPA that has lactose, fruit, and vanilla added to emulate the classic diner favorite.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Pleasant strawberry and vanilla mix.

Flavor: Candied strawberry gives way to moderate hoppiness.
