Description
In 2015, Hubbard’s Cave was developed as an alternative to our Belgian Style Ales. Producing American Style ales, primarily imperial stouts and Hubbard’s Cave signature Fresh IIPAs, Hubbard’s Cave is a refreshing addition to the Une Anneé Family. Named after the Chicago Hubbard Street traffic tunnel on Interstate 90/94, next to where the brewery was born, Hubbard’s Cave has quickly grown to produce some of our most popular offerings.

Can shared at Lucky Bamboo share. Pours a glowing straw gold with a finger of off-white foam that lingers. Lovely pithy white grapefruit aromas with pineapple and light iyokan. Bright, pithy citrus and zest on the palate. Good citrusy bitterness mid-palate into the finish. Crisp and clean, and the bitterness is welcome. Really nice.

Can thanks to Chow. Pours a cloudy yellow orange with small white head that diminishes quickly. The aroma is citrus and pine. Slick body, grapefruit, dank, resin finish, good.

On tap at Beer Temple. Pours a cloudy yellow with an orange hue and a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma is orange juice forward with a bitter bite and a bit bitterness growing. Flavor has sweet citrus and tropical fruits with a hint of onion and sweet grains underlying.

750 ml bottle. Pitch black with a thin white head. Aroma is huge maple syrup with a decent amount of coffee. Drink this fresh. The maple is already taking over the stout as it is. Not really balanced at all. Maybe a touch of bitter coffee bean. Mouthfeel is sticky and very sweet.

75CL from AFH. Oily black, reddish edges. Crema Head. smells of cold brew, hazelnut and intense maple syrup and candy. damn. this is like drinking a glass of syrup. intensely sweet, oily, sharp bitterness at the end. Tastes like cinnamon toast crunch ground up and drank through a straw filled with maple syrup and espresso bean dust.

Barleywine feeling stout, got that extra sweet flavor, sticky and boozy but smooth. Bit thin, tried my hardest to get a good head, it pours legit like syrup.
