Challenge accepted! Such a cool and unique addition to a membership club that you don’t see very often. If they can reveal their coin to you, then you must buy them a beer. If they do not have their coin, they buy you a beer. You must be willing to challenge a friend or membership holder to see if they have their coin on them. Accepting the coin comes with the term challenge. The challenge is proof in the military that you are part of a small and close unit, in this case – the brewery membership club. New to the concept, I asked Melissa and Steve what a challenge coin was. In the Halo Team membership, you receive a t-shirt that is exclusive to the halo team and a challenge coin to carry. If this beer alone was any indication on what to expect from the beers coming out of this brewery, I just knew I made the right decision to sign up for their annual membership. Another bonus beyond the beer is Project Halo Brewery is very dog friendly inside and outside, a huge plus for those of us that have our four legged friends in tow. Nothing overpowers another element in this beer – just a perfect blend of roasty and hoppy flavors, resulting in a traditional true to style brew. In addition to being easy to drink, what I love the most about Disco Demon is the balance of this beer’s tasting experience. Disco Demon really is an absolute pleasure to drink. The mouthfeel is creamy and full of body. Pretty well balanced with the roast presence with most of the hops coming through on the back end, resulting in a bold grapefruit flavor that sticks around but isn’t astringent. The initial sip is roasty with no overpowering bitterness. After admiring the beauty of the pour and the welcoming nose I dive right in and I immediately notice how smooth Disco Demon and how easy it is to drink for a 10% beer. The nose has a beautiful hop aroma that reminds me of mild grapefruit pith and leads the way to a nutty aroma that reminds me of hazelnut spread. You know when a beer looks good enough to drink. The head is a dark tan color that really stands out and shines in the glass for that ultimate picture opportunity. Disco Demon pours as dark as night and doesn’t allow light to pass through living up to the demon name. Disco Demon is a collaboration conducted with our friends at Misfit Outpost and comes in at 10% abv. On my last visit, I decided to have a pour of the new Triple Black IPA, Disco Demon. In true military fashion, it involves a tradition with Challenge Coins as a perfect perk to the membership. Speaking of one of a kind, Project Halo recently announced a cool annual membership club, called The Halo Team. The flight boards are uniquely shaped like a painter’s palette and the full pours accompany beautiful glassware that’s unique and really brings the one of a kind experience together. From the hanging piñatas to the color sugar skulls accents, the vibe in the taproom is cool, collected and in order. One thing that draws me to them is the displays of Hispanic heritage in their beer names and in the taproom décor. Melissa, Project Halo’s head brewer, has designed the taproom to feel so welcoming and familiar. Underline created a logo, labels, packaging and promotional items that use geometric patterns in unexpected colors, resulting in a look that is energetic, modern and a bit rebellious.Project Halo Brewing in Fulshear Texas may be new to the scene but they’re hitting the ground running, inside of a vibrant colored taproom that reminds me of being in an ice cream parlor but even better because there’s local craft beer for sale instead.ĭid you know Project Halo Brewing is a woman & veteran owned nanobrewery? Project Halo gets its name from the military background that both owners, Melissa and Steve Mendez, have. With a taproom and bottle shop that welcome inquisitive visitors, the brewery needed an approachable brand that matched its unconventional sensibilities. “Halo is an adventurous brewery that takes the traditional recipes of rare styles of beer and then experiments with the ingredients. The geometric illustrations are a bit ambiguous, and might even lean trendy in the current beer landscape – but they still provide a bright, cheery and intriguing spin on your typical neighborhood taproom’s aesthetic. And as far as we could guess is what a collaboration between Other Half and Cloudwater might look like, visually. The resulting vibrant lineup mirrors Halo’s adventurous brewing approach, designed by fellow Torontoans, Underline Studio. The brewery needed a lineup of packaged beers to offer visitors to their taproom. And now, the city can add Halo Brewery to its list. ![]() Toronto’s beer scene houses several beautifully branded breweries. Friends of Dorothy Proudly Shouting for Inclusivity
