4 Giants IPA Cowell

Forward bitterness (piney, citric, floral, herbal), yet well balanced. If you're a hophead who prefers hop bitterness to hop fruitiness, this is tops.

KBS Espresso Cowell

Bourbon stout? Coffee stout? Hard to say; this beer has the bitterness, woodiness, booziness, and caramel flavors associated with either style. Win-win!
