Dark Horse Tres Blueberry Stout
Tres is the third in a series of five stouts that Dark Horse Brewing releases throughout the winter season - a series that has become a favorite among many Midwestern stout drinkers.
Tres is a hefty, full-bodied stout brewed with blueberries. The blueberry has garnered a pretty flighty reputation in the brewing community, with its use relegated to light, wheat-based styles where the blueberry...

Last year Dark Horse’s winter stout series was a big hit here at Kryptonite. We’ve been waiting patiently for the return of Too Cream Stout and we think it’s even better than last year. Cream (or milk) stouts are named for the addition of milk sugar (or lactose) in the brewing process. This addition creates a really smooth and creamy body for the beer. If you love stouts, then...

Winter Ale is based on a Belgian Dubbel which are traditionally dark and sweet with notes of figs, raisins, and dark fruits.
