Mug Beer Reviews
No beer glass delivers quantity like the mug or beer stein. It can accommodate a wide range of styles and is designed for volume and ease of use. If you’re going the distance—or need something to defend yourself—look no further than the beer mug.

I kept this bomber in my fridge for a year in order to see how it would age. Would the hops fade? Will the abv turn it into more of a barleywine? What about the oak aspect? These were all questions I asked myself throughout the year as I waited 365+ days to enjoy...

I’ve had this in my fridge for over a year. Wow. Good thing this is a bock and probably matured a little with some cold cellaring. This, my first Tröegs brew, could not have been better. This Bock was a part of their Scratch Series where they brew various...
