Cloud candy beer: Mighty Squirrel in Westford

Cloud Candy is a beer from Mighty Squirrel, and CBC Liquors in Westford has it in stock now. You can find it in our beer section at 142 Littleton Rd, or open the Cloud Candy page to see the can before you come in. Below is what to check on the label, how to serve it, and what to pick up beside it.

What is Cloud Candy beer?

Cloud Candy is a beer made by Mighty Squirrel, sold in cans, and it is on our shelves in Westford right now. If you searched the name, you are most likely after the MIGHTY SQUIRREL Cloud Candy listing, which is the one we carry.

The name sounds like a flavoured sweet, but the name alone does not tell you what is in the can. Beer names are marketing as much as description. The style, the strength and the flavour notes are printed on the can and shown on the product page, and those are what you should go by.

That is true of any beer you have not tried before. Read the style on the label first, then decide whether it suits what you like.

Where can you buy Cloud Candy in Westford?

We sell it at CBC Liquors, 142 Littleton Rd, Westford, MA 01886. We are open Sunday 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM, Monday to Thursday 10:00 AM to 9:00 PM, and Friday and Saturday 10:00 AM to 10:00 PM.

Cloud Candy is one of the beers we have in stock now. We carry 4,617 products across 1,892 brands, and beer is one of the categories we carry. The product page is the quickest way to see the listing for this one.

If you are coming from Chelmsford, Littleton, Acton, Carlisle, Tyngsborough, Lowell, Billerica, Boxborough or Dunstable, those are all towns we serve. Westford is where the store is, and you pick up here.

How do you check it is in stock before you drive over?

Open the Cloud Candy product page on our website. It shows the beer as we list it, and that is more reliable than a search result pointing at an older listing.

Beer moves in and out, especially when a brewery releases a batch in limited runs. If the page shows it, you are in good shape. If you would rather be certain, call the store before you leave the house.

It also helps to look through the rest of the beer section while you are on the site. If Cloud Candy is not what you expected, you will see alternatives right beside it.

What should you read on a can before you buy?

Start with the style. Whether a beer is an IPA, a lager, a sour or a fruited ale tells you far more than its name does. The style sets your expectations for bitterness, sweetness and body.

Next, look at the alcohol by volume. Craft cans vary a lot. Some sit at the level of an easy-drinking lager and others are much stronger, so the number tells you how to pace yourself and what to eat with it.

Finally, check for a packaged-on or best-by date. Hop-forward beers are at their best fresh, and a recent date is a good sign. Cans keep better than most people expect, but fresh is the point with an IPA.

You must be 21 or older to buy beer from us, and we check.

What else sits near Cloud Candy on the shelf?

If you like trying a new can from a craft brewery, there are a few close neighbours worth a look. MAINE BEER CO Lunch and Lawsons Sip Of Sunshine are both IPAs, and both are in stock now.

If hazy beers are your thing, the New England IPA page groups them in one place, and the wider IPA category covers the other IPA styles too. That is a handy way to compare what is on the shelf instead of guessing from names.

We also carry beer from makers like Other Half, Night Shift, Toppling Goliath and Mast Landing. Their brand pages list what we have from each.

How should you serve and store it?

Keep cans cold. Beer holds up best in the fridge, and for hop-forward styles that matters more than for most. Heat and light are the two things that dull them quickly.

Serve it chilled, but not ice cold. A beer straight from the coldest part of the fridge hides its flavour. Give it a few minutes in the glass and it opens up.

Pour it into a glass if you can. Even a plain pint glass lets the aroma out, and aroma is a big part of how a beer tastes. If you are unsure what to pair it with, lighter food suits most craft cans: grilled chicken, tacos, salty snacks or a simple pizza.

If you bought more than you will drink in one evening, leave the extras in the fridge rather than in the car or on a sunny counter.

Can you get it without coming into the store?

Yes, in the sense that we offer pickup and delivery alongside walking in. Pickup hours match our store hours: Sunday 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM, Monday to Thursday 10:00 AM to 9:00 PM, and Friday and Saturday 10:00 AM to 10:00 PM.

Delivery runs Sunday 10:00 AM to 7:30 PM, Monday to Thursday 10:00 AM to 8:30 PM, and Friday and Saturday 10:00 AM to 9:30 PM. Our delivery pages cover towns like Chelmsford, Acton, Littleton and Lowell, so check yours before you order.

Whoever receives an order must be 21 or older and show valid ID.

What if you want a different beer altogether?

Plenty of people searching for one beer end up leaving with something else, and that is fine. For something seasonal, AYINGER OKTOBER FEST-MARZEN is a German festbier-style lager in stock now, and our Oktoberfest page shows the others.

For an easy-drinking pick that suits a crowd, we have Corona Extra Bottles and Michelob Ultra. Our Easy Drinking Beer page gathers lagers and similar styles in one spot.

If you are planning a get-together and want more than one kind, the Party Planner is there to help you work out what to bring. Our 4.7 out of 5 Google rating from 339 reviews is another way to see how other customers rate the store.
