Apple Pie Bed by Three Boys Brewery is a unique and captivating IPA that blends the rich, malty characteristics of a porter with the hop-forward profile of an IPA, infused with the essence of apple and cinnamon. The beer presents a golden amber hue, topped with a creamy beige head that sets the stage for the aromatic explosion that follows. The nose is dominated by the warm, comforting scents of apple pie, with notes of cinnamon, nutmeg, graham crackers, and a hint of vanilla, creating a truly inviting and tantalizing experience. On the palate, the sweet and tart apple flavors take center stage, balanced by a medley of pie spices that dance across the tongue, including cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves. The graham cracker maltiness provides a sturdy foundation, while a touch of vanilla adds a smooth, sweetness to the overall flavor profile. The medium-bodied texture and long, fruity finish leave a pleasant, lingering taste of apple pie, making this beer a delightful and indulgent treat.
