On tap and chilly cold in our coldcase — MILK OF THE MADONNA BLONDE ALE by @belchingbeaver and @deftones
Brewed in collaboration with Deftones, this Horchata Blonde Ale hits smooth like a favorite track on repeat. Creamy and mellow with notes of cinnamon and vanilla, it’s a flavor that warms in all the right places. Rich and rhythmic, each sip carries a subtle groove. Crafted to pair with late-night sessions, deep cuts, and the moments in between. Turn it up, pour it out, and let it play.
