In our first 'part two' of our celebrated 'Brewery Spotlight' series, Tom and John discuss some select flavours from the Box of Chocolates beer collection from Spectrum (Alex would have joined, but his beers were accidently consumed the night prior by a dastardly family member!). We first discuss the delicious MINT CHOCOLATE ALE, then the Terry Chocolate Orange-esque ORANGE CHOCOLATE ALE, and finally wrap things up with the smooth MILK CHOCOLATE ALE (we also discuss our favourite Christmas moves at the end of the episode). Very ale heavy episode but we dug these beers, definitely a perfect episode for Tom and John's moms and other moms around the world. If you see the Box of Chocolates at your local store - check them out.
Note that one of the beers in the box, the white chocolate stout, was not featured on this episode. However, we've sampled it in person and can confirm it is a great drink. Look to seeing it featured on a future stout discussion.
