Hop Lot’s Tilted Radars American Stout

Bottoms Up

Hop Lot Brewing Company is a great place to spend a winter day in northern Michigan. While the brewery’s big outdoor space is certainly a blast in the summertime, we have a special fondness for the igloo lifestyle that Hop Lot embraces in the winter. (Those igloos are heated and furnished to be nice and cozy no matter the weather.) They are also the perfect place to enjoy a pint of the Tilted Radars, an outstanding American stout that’s just perfect for a winter weekend afternoon. Coffee and cocoa nibs give this beer the kind of roasty, chocolatey richness that you’d expect from a full-bodied American stout, but a super smooth finish and a not-quite-imperial-level alcohol content (the beer clocks in at 7.5 percent ABV) make the Tilted Radars nice and drinkable. Pair it with a burger or Hop Lot’s spicy fried chicken sandwich for especially satisfying results. Find it at 658 S W Bay Shore Dr, Suttons Bay. (231) 866-4445, hoplotbrewing.com
