The 'Mogul Madness' Beer Offers Malty Warmth On Cold Winter Days
Rahul Kalvapalle — February 2, 2023 — Lifestyle
Rogue Ales & Spirits is going about showing that the colder months can be a time of joy rather than dread with the launch of a rejuvenated version of 'Mogul Madness,' a winter ale that is designed to make it easier than ever for you to warm up on the most frigid of days and nights.
The latest and greatest version of 'Mogul Madness' features a skier in full flight, essentially paying tribute to those who embrace winter head-on by hitting the slopes. As far as the brew itself is concerned, this winter ale deftly combines sweet and arboreal notes, making for a complex and enjoyable drinking experience.
In the words of Jason Pond, VP of Production at Rogue Ales & Spirits, this particular winter ale is 'generously hopped like an IPA giving it a big piney, citrus flavor and sweet fruit notes.'
