Twisted Pine Espresso and Ghost Face


Back in stock now at Forsyth and online now --


Twisted Pine Big Shot Espresso Stout
Style: Coffee Stout IBU’s: 30 Hops – Northern Brewer, East Kent Goldings
Rated a 95 on ratebeer.com. Big Shot is a favorite of many coffee-loving beer drinkers. This thick Stout is playfully infused with espresso in every pint. It pours jet black with a rich creamy brown head with wonderful roasted coffee and grainy malt aromas. The earthy, dark chocolate flavors of the espresso showcase the flawless balance of the beer.



Twisted Pine Ghost Face Killah....$3.39 / 12oz btl




Style: Chili Beer IBU’S: 10 Hops – Willamette, Northern Brewer ABV 5%
GFK is brewed with 6 zany peppers. Anaheim, Fresno, Jalapeno, Serrano, Habanero and Bhut Jolokia – Otherwise known as the Ghost Pepper. 200 times the heat of jalapenos, Bhut Jolokia are the hottest peppers in the world, a pepper so hot it can be weaponized. So hot that our brewers had to wear masks and gloves to cut them up. Aroma of smoked chillis fills the nose on first whiff, but don’t let it linger to long. Immediately on first taste GFK has a nice golden wheat flavor, but this is only for a fleeting moment before the temperature rises. Just hold on, the warmth of this beer will set in for a long spicy burn. There is only one finish on this beer – HEAT!

Food Pairing: Ice-cream or milk, because that is all that is going to help you with this brew.
