On tap at Stone & Rail, Jameson Irish whiskey-barreled sour blonde ale adds only a pinch of whiskey to mildly acidic Persian lime and lemon adjuncts. Candied citrus tartness gains subtle peach, cider and green grape reminders. A Mojito substitute?

RIVER HORSE CHERRY BERLINER WEISSE
Subdued “wheat ale aged with tart cherries” retains mild lemon-juiced acidity to its salty bottom. Laid-back oaken cherry souring picks up bitter cranberry spell and plain yogurt snip, but washed-out white wheat base falters as tart cherry influence fades abruptly.
RIVER HORSE RASPBERRY TRIPEL HORSE BELGIAN ALE
Tart raspberry permanence and candi-sugared Belgian yeast sweeten funky herbal spicing in a surprisingly calm 10% ABV setting. Creamy vanilla-banana conflux and spicy dried fruiting contrast salty soda-spritzed lemon bruise placed against sweet ‘n sour raspberry rasp.
RIVER HORSE SPECIAL ALE W/ COCOA NIBS – CASK
On tap at Andy’s Corner Bar, cask version of maple-malted amber ale stays smooth and warming. Relaxing cocoa nibs influence brings milky coconut sway and mild brown chocolate sweetness to the fold as ever-increasing peppery jalapeno burn smolders the light mocha finish.
RIVER HORSE CHOCOLATE PORTER
Perfect chocolate milkshake re-creation brings creamy brown chocolate overtones to its dirty earthen base as mild vanilla-toffee sweetness contrasts light cocoa-beaned coffee bittering in the backdrop.
RIVER HORSE HIPPO’S HAND
Pleasantly streamlined ‘New England-styled IPA’ utilizes Mosaic, Citra and Lemondrop hops to acquire well-balanced pineapple, peach, orange, tangerine and grapefruit tang. Moderated astringent piney hop herbage crisply cleansed by mildly ‘citrusy’ tropical fruiting above mellow crystal-pale malting.
RIVER HORSE HIPP-O-LANTERN IMPERIAL PUMPKIN – CASK (BOURBON CHIPS)
On tap at River Of Beer, cask-conditioned version steeped in bourbon chips maintains soft flow for delicate pumpkin pie spicing, toned-down molasses waver and dainty vanilla wisp. After a few sips, zesty lemony orange frisk settles alongside subtle pumpkin-spiced gingerbread, cinnamon, allspice and nutmeg seasoning.
RIVER HORSE HIPPOTIZING IPA
Prevalent yellow grapefruit tang settles down and picks up bitter dry-hopped lemon seed aspect and green tea snicker above white bread bottom. Sharp citrus affluence increased in the midst by caramelized pilsner malting as tertiary pineapple, mango, tangerine and mango surface alongside zesty grapefruit juicing.
RIVER HORSE ROLY POLY PILS
“Classic Czech-styled pilsner” connects pungent Saaz-Hallertau hop bittering to corn-flaked mineral graininess, lightly creamed caramel malting, salted orange-lemon tartness and doughy yeast breading. Mild sulfuric skunking, in conjunction with sharply bitter hops and musky grains, will appeal to Eastern Euro pilsner lovers and Heineken fans.
