Description
Launched in 2012 by by Thomas Vogel, Dave Mobley, and brewmaster Troy Smith, Belching Beaver Brewery evolved from a desire to make great beer and have a ‘Dam Good Time’ doing it. The award-winning craft beer company is focused on two things: First, have a brand that offers quality craft beer, while also being whimsical and fun to inspire good times. Each Belching Beaver beer release carries its own individual style and personality. Second, make beer for everyone and all palates. Our San Diego Brewery hosts 5 different locations serving craft beer you're going to love, of which the Oceanside Brewhouse is the production brewery.

Can via Beer Republic. Rather thin body, medium carbonation. Medium bitterness, med-high sweetness. Lots of candyish flavour and sweetness, not really feeling like hops. Lots of general estery fruitiness, moderate oxidation too. Canned on 3.8.2023, maybe a bit old, but not very good as is.

Can via Beer Revolution. Medium body, medium carbonation. Medium bitterness, med-light sweetness. Med-light honey flavour, but not overly sweet, seems fairly well attenuated. Soft underlying grassy hops character, background maltiness. Easy drinking, pretty good.

On tap at Orleans Casino, Las Vegas. Totally black beer with a thin head of crema. Nose is total peanut butter. Smooth texture, good body. Chocolate, peanut butter. Slightly bitter finish. Superb, but only if you like 'Reeces'. I do so.... Yummo!

Can from Total Wine in Mountain View, CA. Pours translucent gold with a large white head. Mixed tropical aromas. Med body - lush in the mouth. Passion fruit, melon and grapefruit for aroma. Juicy, but pretty dry. Flavor is the aroma with a touch of zest - light touch. Very nice flavor.
