Terrapin Beer Company (Athens, GA) is ready to ship Side Project #22, Moonray. The beer is a chocolate weizenbock, meant to resemble the chocolate oranges you get at Christmas.
To accomplish this flavor, the brewing team added orange peel and cocoa nibs.
Sometimes things get a little weird when there’s a full moon. Floating into Side Project spot 22 is Moonray Chocolate Orange Weizenbock. Our rendition of this traditional style is clearly a hoax with the addition of cocoa nibs and orange peel for a greater depth of flavor. With its big malt presence and hint of banana from the yeast, this beer may just make you howl at the moon.
Terrapin Moonray is a name nod to Sunray Wheat the brewery retired in 2011. The beer is available on draft and 22oz bombers this May. While you’re sipping #22, start thinking about Side Project #23 – Guano Loco.
