Mild lemony grapefruit-peeled orange rind bitterness enjoins lightly pungent piney hop musk, biscuit-honeyed pale malts, spritzy sugar spicing and wafting floral snips for one fine moderation.

TALLGRASS VANILLA BEAN BUFFALO SWEAT STOUT
On tap at Flying Saucer in St. Louis, creamily smooth stout utilizes lactose-sugared Ugandan vanilla beans to further sweeten milky black chocolate resonance as well as cocoa, marshmallow and molasses undertones in contrast to astringent hop roast.
TALLGRASS WOODEN ROOSTER TRIPEL
On tap at Flying Saucer in St. Louis, ambitious rye whiskey barrel-aged tripel recasts brewers’ expressive Velvet Rooster with considerable success. Its dry whiskey alcohol warmth affects the glistening fruited bourbon sweetness, tripel-styled peppery hop spicing and light pilsner malting, finishing with an oaken vanilla veneer. Along the way, tangy cane-sugared banana daiquiri, bruised orange, pineapple, peach, tangerine and apricot illusions as well as lesser almond-coconut-pecan snips contrast vinous Lambrusco champagne esters and distant phenolic astringency.
