Winter's Top 8: 2026
From June until mid-August.
No surprises at the top - Hopwired holds its ground as the beer that never takes a season off, proof that a great IPA doesn't need winter to earn its spot in the fridge. From there, it's exactly the lineup you'd expect from the colder months: stouts and dark ales doing the heavy lifting, with Extra Stout, iStout, and its Affogato twist all pulling strong numbers alongside Talia's fortune-telling magic. Crumbs and Gallus round things out as proof that a well-made classic never goes out of style, while Hop Salad's presence again shows the hop-forward crowd never really clocks off, even in winter.
