#Darwin beer reviews harpoon ipa full#
The Boston Kreme donut is full of cream (obviously) and is covered in chocolate. The beer made in its honor was brewed with cacao nibs and actual Dunkin’ Boston Kreme donuts. It’s pretty much a Boston Cream Pie in donut form with chocolate frosting and a creamy center. The Boston Kreme (or Boston Cream) is a classic donut flavor. It’s a little stunty and in danger of getting muddled, but overall this works. But there’s also an underlying smoky, spicy cup of coffee lingering on the finish that adds enjoyable nuance. There’s a lot of pumpkin flavor, is what we’re saying - sure to appeal to pumpkin spice fans.īasically, it’s like a hybrid of a pumpkin pie and a beer. The palate is pretty much the equivalent of taking a big gulp of autumn. Harpoon turned the trope on its head by making a spiced latte ale using real pumpkin, pumpkin pie spices, and coffee. Check our tasting notes below and decide which (if any) of these brews you’re going to sip on come fall. Since it’s natural to be wary about what these borderline stunt beers taste like, we decided to sample all four. All four beers will be available on draft, in six-packs, and in the new Harpoon Dunkin’ Dozen mix pack (which gets you three cans of each flavor) starting in September. The Boston Kreme Stout and Jelly Donut IPA were brewed with actual donuts. If you didn’t gather it based on the beer names, the collab sees two donut-infused beers included in this year’s offerings. While the aforementioned porter is being re-released, Harpoon Dunkin’ Pumpkin Spiced Latte, Boston Kreme Stout, and the highly suspect-sounding Jelly Donut IPA are being added into the seasonal mix. This year, the brands decided to up the ante a bit. It was called Harpoon Dunkin’ Coffee Porter and it tasted exactly like it sounds - sweet, rich, and full of roasted coffee flavor. Two years ago, well-known coffee and donut chain Dunkin’ Donuts ( now just Dunkin’) collaborated with Boston’s renowned Harpoon Brewery to release a beer made with chain’s Espresso Blend Coffee.
